Congrats Bevs!! I am sure you will be fine with that time frame. Since you have a child you will get out from the plane first so you can fall in line too so it will not be a problem with you.

PhilippinesE-ticket..give me infos pls.
PAL is very strict with CC. This is base on my experience with our trip from boracay to cebu last oct 19, 2008. I forgot the CC that I used to purchased the tickets. We ended up buying new tickets and asked for a refund for the unused ones.

PhilippinesDRY SKIN SOLUTION....
QUOTE (jom @ Nov 11 2008, 07:19 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I use Aveeno too and it really works. However, I still have to find a product that stops my dandruff. I have them everytime the weather gets colder. I am starting to have them now since it is also getting colder even in Florida. Never had dandruff in the Philippines and this is my biggest head problem .

Any suggestions??

PhilippinesCan i bring tawas?
When i came here last year I forgot to check my stuff and I had tawas in my check - in luggage. When my sister in Maine learned that I had it my bag she freaked out!! Last OCtober she reminded me not to bring tawas. Actually I stopped using it here .Anyway, My advise is you can find something here too that will be hiyang for you.

Hey thanks a lot!

Since we are talking about driving here I might as well share my experiences the last few days that I am really proud of.

Monday night we had our anniversary dinner in a brazilian restaurant in Tampa ( was there for Joe's work) and early Tuesday morning about 5:30 am I had to drop him in Tampa airport and drive back home for about 2 hours via the veteran's highway. I gave out a big sigh of relief when I finally pulled in our driveway, safe and in one piece smile.gif. Yesterday, I picked up my VJ friend Mari and her daughter from Inverness and went to visit fellow VJ member Jen in Williston, she is due to deliver her first baby next month. Drove for almost 90 miles back and forth, GPS brought us to the wrong road about 1 mile from Jen's house but we managed smile.gif


I love driving and the more I drive the more I get confident. So keep driving girls! We can beat the green light! lol
[/quote]


Myla,

if it were me I am sure i would be proud hahahha.. You are doing great there driving around and meeting friends. I need GPS here so i could find my way around. Most of my driving is for familiar places no interstate alone . Enjoy and take care.

That is what is on the agenda now, driving school. The one we found will pick her up and bring her home so I won't need to take time off from work.

That is nice ha. It is really cold in here. Yesterday, i went to the library just to get out from the house while hubby is not around. It is really liberating for me to be out alone. Cheers to all who are still adjusting to our new life here.

What makes it hard for Ruchie is that I have a Ford F-250 pickup truck and it is quite big. I told her if she can master that, then she can drive anything... So far she hasn't hit anything, but I will keep that in mind!... whistling.gif
