Thu 21 Jun 2007
Marketman on the beach in Boracay about an hour ago… I am not responding to email enquiries but there are more posts coming to keep you all amused. I am amazed I can log on to see what’s going on, but I am online a lot less than usual!
You made it! Hope the weather is kind to you. Enjoy! =)
June 21st, 2007The power of wireless communication enjoying the sun and beach! Do not forget the sunblock and apply it 30 minutes before hitting the outdoor. Throw a handful of that talcum powdered white sand up in the air for me. Have fun fun fun!
June 21st, 2007Your undivided devotion to your blog site is quite amazing. With today’s technology, you can be relaxing on the beach while also having a pulse on Marketmanila, wireless of course! The photography is equally amazing. Don’t forget to share all your local “bite experiences”. Enjoy!

June 22nd, 2007I’ve been a daily lurker for quite a few months and I think it’s time for me to come out of the shadows. I enjoy your posts on your adventures in PI and it brings many fond memories. Looking forward to reading about your Boracay jaunt and feedback on amazing local haunts.
Cheers and have a nice cold one for me, will yah!
June 22nd, 2007You finally made it to Boracay!! Enjoy your stay there and have a safe trip back home.
June 22nd, 2007I used to manage a resort there for 2 wonderful years 15 years ago. Boy, I had a blast! Heard that there were lots of changes happened through the years esp. the physical stucture of the resorts now. I’m anxiously waiting for your latest update on Bora!
June 22nd, 2007Hey MM, you finally made it to Bora huh! Yup, Fridays is a good place to stay. Enjoy!!!
June 22nd, 2007looking forward to more posts on your bora escapade
June 22nd, 2007Wow MM, Bora!! Truly heaven on earth =) Must try is the Mandala Spa. A bit pricey, but oh so worth it!
June 22nd, 2007I’ve only been to boracay in the 90’s and twice i stayed at Fridays. I loved that resort. And the beach in that area is the best! I haven’t been to the “Bora” of today because I don’t like crowded places and lots of people. And that’s what I see on TV. I do hope though you got the peace and quiet you were looking for since it’s off season already.
Post more pics please.
