Day 287: Typhoon Kristine Shenanigans

Guys we are stuck on Mindoro Island; another full day in Sabang. We decide to party like the locals and venture out in this weather.

We go for a 1.5 hour hike up to a lighthouse in the rain; of course everyone else had umbrellas, flip flops, and would use tuktuks or motorbikes to get around. But we need the exercise so whatever.

The rain and wind did get progressively worse and every few local would offer their bike or ask if we are enjoying the lovely Philippine weather. We can only laugh, smile, and just take the beauty of the storm in. Kids were outside playing and following us, and older residents would smile.

Sadly, a big big puddle blocked our way to the light house at the very end so we turned back empty handed. Grabbed more soju at the market and watched more Attack on Titan.

We hit our boy up at Relax restaurant again and tried the squid and beer tag-a-log; for real this restaurant and meals are some of the best we had all Gap Year so we were happy to give them the business.

The rain was still pouring down, but that didn’t stop the strip clubs from stripping and the Korean partying at dinner with their new Filipino girls 😉
