Day 12 Wednesday 8th March

Late breakfast. Picked up by Joseph and Doy and did a town tour.
First off the Illocando Museum which showcases the local people (the Illocando's) culture. What facinated me was the intricate wooden fret work that they had at the top of the walls and the lace they had hanging in doorways.





St Williams Cathedral in Laoag is sinking.... it looks really strange!



Got dropped in the central market in Laoag. Carl bought himself a Barong Tagalog - a traditional filipino shirt and got a hair cut.

Back to the resort about 2pm. Wandered down to the beach which was absolutely deserted and then back to the pool.


Had a swim, and then took some pictures of the flowers and gardens.


Ended up in the pool bar and took some pictures of the sunsets. The bar had these amazing shell inlays.



Went out to dinner for my birthday - invited Joseph and Doy as well.
