Vacation with Friends in Manila and Baluarte
I got a wild hair up my ass and headed to Manila. I dont really remember much about it but they said I arrived around 7pm. Audie invited me to stay with him in the Manila townhouse where we partied with Brian, Maffie, Jaqi, Gaz, Sai, Bukkit, Jay, Amirah and pretty much most of the Boracay gang. Yes, we drank a lot. Boracay must be dead right about now since theres no-one left to party there any more…..I wonder what they think about our remaining bar tabs.
Audie then invited a bunch of us to stay as guests of his generous family at Baluarte. Just google that name and the city of Vigan and you’ll see why I used the word ‘generous’. I havent been online in about a week and a half I think but finally found a spot outside where we can pick up wi-fi. ‘ll get on a little more now for pic uploading. I’ll post more later but left my good camera on Boracay so only a cell phone camera. For some reason, I didnt take many in Manila. The rest of the crew arrives today. Here’s a few pics.
Oh yea, I also got to see a lion gettin’ it on with a tiger - then he started playing rough and bit her neck (hell yea!) - she got up and he slapped her in the ass with his paw as she walked away. No shit. It was hilarious.

Looking down on the house from the new tower construction…thats th roof of the private house. Complete with 2 swimming pools and a couple of tigers. For a sense of scale, the path coming out of the patio is wide enough for 2 people to walk abreast. Its friggin huge.
