i wasn't online very long at 1am-ish...

we just got back from taking soleil to see the lights at policarpio street... little girl loved it... and i logged on for a little bit to see what was up

booting up the PC at 1am, logging on for a whopping 10minutes and posting a couple of posts - that means i'm officially qualified for SB Anonymous... sobrang addict!!!

planet dive has a free shore dives deal too... of course you're pretty much stuck with twin rocks... you can also surface swim balai rock but that's not particularly exciting... you can also stretch the swim and head north and hit pani's point to bebots

i don't know how that access compares to dnt
