Ozamis

After arriving in Manila we boarded a very small plane headed for Ozamis City. The flight was only 1 hour and they gave us no snacks:(. By this time I was pretty bent-out-of-shape so it seemed like we were in the air FOREVER! But just as I thought my legs were going to walk away on their own(they were very restless) we landed in the middle of rice fields at the Ozamiz Airport. There were farmers in their fields waving at us. A group of boys had gathered at the fence to watch the plane arrive....and now I am guessing that is most of the entertainment they have!

Richard's Tita and Tito and other relatives were there waiting to take us to a chicken BBQ place in town. Yes it was hot but not what I expected.

This was an outdoor resturant....very beautiful and there was a nice breeze blowing. The lady next to Lola is her sister Lourdis.

This is Beverly and Richzer(Richard's younger brother).

Here is what we ate. The dish on the left is raw fish(i didn't eat that) and dish on the right is vegetables and the middle is the chicken. That was a thigh and leg piece....what do you notice about it? Very tiny! No perservatives pumped into this bird! Talk about organic! Free-range I bet! It was all good....and the rice was "all you can eat!"

Here is a group shot of the welcoming party!
