Day at the beach

Today we went to a beach that I can't remember the name of! I know we went through Tacloban Golf course and another house that Imeda Marcos built was there though! Anyway, it was a day out with our 'sponsored kids', these are mainly local children. We had met ours around the centre a few times and asked if a few of their friends could come too and also a few of the volunteers came along. The beach was lovely and the sea was beautiful to swim in, the waves weren't as rough as the last beach we went too. Joy was determined to get a tan but ended up going a little pink after falling asleep in the sun (she has gone brown now luckily!).

My cough still felt pretty bad and it was stopping me from sleeping but I hoped the day out would help. (OK I just wanted to go to the beach!) Also started to get earache everytime I coughed or swallowed - I'm falling apart!

In the evening, we went to watch Shay-Shay and Salvie (who are in the family we stay with) in their school show. Then we made a late entrance to Stefans (a Dutch volunteer who lives in Japan) leaving dinner and drunk some tuba - it is good but not without coke!
