Letye

My travel companions on the ferry

I spoke too soon about buses with flat tires! Another island and another journey - a reverse of the motorbike, boat, jeepney, followed by two more jeepneys, a ferry crossing, a bicycle cab (foot powered tricycle rather than a motorbike powered one) and one more jeepney. The last jeepney being an added bonus as the ferry didn't actually land in the town that I had expected it to - oops! It was also this jeepney that had a flat tire on the journey, but as before it was swifly mended and we didn't even have to get off. A long days travel from Bohol to Leyte and I seem to have left most of the tourists behind, though I did get to share my room with an uninvited guest - a small mouse.

More diving and relaxing for me in Southern Leyte, in an area called Padre Burgos. The diving was good but I didn't see as many critters here as at Cabilao, I am not sure if the critters are just not here or whether the dive guides were just not quite as good at finding them. Very relaxed all the same and some good company with fellow divers.
