The Philippines was something of a record for that rareified travel to the homeland. Amy and I decided to pack our bags and see if we can still hack it with smog in our thoughts, the rationed water, the heat, bugs and mosquitoes that are waiting for us. All these "unthinkables" for a golden jubilee celebration with our long lost high school friends and classmates.
We tested the waters of Singapore and Malaysia during the first leg of our trip to get a comparison of what to expect in The Old Philippines.
