Boholy moly!

So, its been a few days since we've been able to get online. In that time, we've gone from Boracay to Caticlan to Cebu (for a night) and then on to Bohol, one of the Philippine's premier eco-tourism hotspots. The main attractions here is diving, chocolate hills, old spanish architecture, the loboc river and the world's smallest primate, the tarsier.

Bohol, is a peaceful place and the pace of life is much slower than big city manila or even boracay for that matter. The capital of Bohol is Tagbilaran and its got everything you would need without being sooverpopulated like other cities. The rest of Bohol's population is scattered around the island in small villages.

We basically got a guy to take us around the island and show us most of the attractions. Things are spaced out so you kinda have to do that. Our driver, John Paul was an awesome dude and he's expecting a child soon which he will name John Paul II (the second). We wish him well.

The tarsiers are cool little things and you really got to check them out. See the monkey, in the picture to the left? Well, I passed it on to Uriah after I held it and it proceeded to give Uriah's arm a golden shower!!

mmmm.... warm monkey pee pee.

Yes it did, trust me i washed my arms with sanitiser. LITERALLY! The guy said it was good luck. Yeah right lucking that it didnt shit on me. After a while the monkey and i made peace and he felt so soft. Bohol i actually really love, you need to slow down once in a while. To the left is a picture of tarsiers. They are about the size of a can of coke. How cute!
