My parents came for a visit earlier this month, and we had a great time! We first spent some time in Bacolod, the big city near my site. They took me and some of my friends out to dinner. They might have been hoping for a nice Filipino meal, but we all wanted pizza...so we went to Mama Maria's and shared the country's largest pizza. After that we did videoke, a favorite pastime here. My dad and my friend Anna did a lovely duet of 'El Paso', a song I have never heard before. After Bacolod, we went 
to Sipalay, to an awesome beach resort called takatuka, and spent a couple days relaxing and swimming, and lying around in hammocks. After Sipalay, we visited my site, including my school. Unfortunately, that day there was a mini-typhoon, and we didn't get to see much. But they met the teachers i work with and saw the library briefly.

After Cadiz we went to Bohol and stayed at the amazing Bohol Bee Farm. We ate wonderful delicious organic food, and saw all the tourist sites, like the chocolate hills, tarsiers, and the Loboc river cruise. The bee farm was really cool, and they grown their own herbs for use 
in their dishes, many of which include, obviously, honey. All too soon it was time to head back to Manila and say goodbye. I had a great vacation!
