Arrived Safely

We've arrived! Its been a long flight but a good one. Cathay Pacific looked after us well and Zac and Michael were really good. Helen was grumpy most of the way but she blamed the travel sickness tablets. Ate Sol meet us at the airport with Ate Maricar and Kuya Leto.

Then on our ride into Manila, every time Zac saw a Jeepney he said ' Jeepney' ( they are a kind of extended Jeep that are used like buses - and there are lots of them!)

Then we had a meal at Tgi’s with some of the Kanlungan staff which was great, although Zac feel asleep while we were there! Then a good nights rest ( we woke up at 11:15!) and now in Starbucks for breakfast!

Going to see the children in a swimming competition this afternoon which should be fun!

Thanks for all your prayers and support

Mark, Helen, Michael & Zac

Really glad you arrived safely. Have a wonderful time. Give my love to everyone at Kanlugan. I wish I was there with you! Love to the boys and Helen. May you all be really blessed as a family as you spend this precious time together. Thanks so much again for your hospitality last Sunday night. You really were a blessing to me. Please add an additional £20 to the pot to help to treat the staff. I didn't have much spare cash last weekend.but I will pop it into an envelope for you for when youvget home. Keep safe. Thanks for the blog it's great to keep in touch. Love to all. Liz x
