Palawan Plane Ride




Just arrived from my trip to Puerto Princesa, Palawan with Des and Tin. We attended the Philippine Association of Academic and Research Librarians (PAARL) National Summer Conference on Finding the Library's Place in the 2.0 Environment. The conference was from April 23 to 25, but we got in a day early to take in the sights (see next albums). First pic is arrival. Had a very very bad headache due to lack of sleep since I had apprehensions for this, my first plane ride, so I only took a few pics. The others are for the trip home with Robert Romero, another UPSLIS Alum who was one of the speakers. The guy in the cap and green shirt is a line cutter. Stupid asshole. Makapal talaga ang mukha. Pinaparingan na nga naming lahat sa linya e sumingit talaga. The sky pics are above cloud photos through the PAL plane window when I was able to get a window seat on the way home. The popping of the ears every so often from 9,000 to 33,000 feet was more bearable on the way home. It was grueling the first time.

  10. waaaaaaw!!!! i'm so proud of you at nakasakay ka na rin ng eroplano sa wakas! i remember you telling us years back na ayaw mo ng eroplano kasi you're "keeping safe", kaya mabagal ka rin magmaneho ng pulang lancer (nga ba? betty boop car kasi tawag ko sa mga ganun e) mo. hahaha!!!

  11. Tink yu tink yu.... Naaalala nyo pa yun? Talagang iniiwasan kong lumipad noon pa. Grabe apprehensions ko talaga. Kaya nga nagagalit sa akin si Ma'am Cruz noon madalas. Kasi nga mas gugustuhin ko pang mag-boat o mag-drive na lang. Kaya di ako makapunta-punta sa trainings na malayo.
