The day really started rather early for all of us, in fact 3:30am was no time to be at the airport. But there we were, queing for the Tacloban counter...

By the way, did I mentioned the pilot misapproached the runway? thick clouds enveloped Tacloban that day. Anyway, here's a scene outside the airport...
our vans are the blue and white ones on the left

to continue.....we were now 1,000 km from Manila. Hard to take pics when the van is traveling more than a 100kph and the driver wearing a bandana! His name ain't Bambi...

finally arriving in the resort around 10:30am and surely wasted no time accomplishing the needed documentations. Half of the group did a dive around 1pm while the other opted to catch some sleep.

thanks for looking.

ps - Still got lots of pix though, and I discarded the idea of having to post process them (including these posted ones) . Just too much time consuming.
