Day 3
gonna keep this one pretty short.
I made friends with this guy named nate in the main pool yesterday. It was me him and carmen in the pool as the monsoon started rolling in and a little bit of rain wasn't going to stop me from getting my swim-on.
nate was really nice, we talked about life in paris (where he lives), and how it was a big change from when he lived in Minnesota. Apparently french hospitality doesn't extend past to outsiders. For example, people who work with each other rarely go out for drinks outside of work for happy hour. Also no one knows each others neighbours.. everyone just keeps to themselves. Another not very publicized fact was the amount of rain in Paris. He tells me all it does is rain there, so the typhoon didn't bother either of us.
His wife looked parisian and had that kind of french attitude haha, but he still invited us over to his tree top canopy villa at the verrrry top of the hotel. baller.. hopefully i bump into him again, it was really fun talking to him.
Carmen and I ended up going around to d'Mall again and it was much more fun. I ended up eating garlic rice and calamari with ink sauce (my lips were all black by the end of the meal). Carmen had this delicious fish in chips, with bread batter and oh my it was very delicious. The mix of the salty garlicy dish with her dryer crispy fish was a very good combo. I ended up eating a lot of hers too which i feel bad.. haha there was some awkward parts where I didn't even know I was eating so much of her dish. poor carmie thought i didn't like my own.. bah they were just so good together. oh well :)
we spent some more time shopping around and bought a bottle of Moet Champagne for like $2200 pesos.. so like $45? ish~ pretty good deal haha..
we ended up bringing back the moet to the room and a bunch of junk food (like these cheese twists, chrispy m&m's and cup noodles) and eating and getting really drunk..
Today we try and find some traditional Philippino dishes and go try out that fine dining italian resteraunt on the resort. That's gonna be expensive :x whatever i'm excited to see what kind of food they're offering, and fine dining with carmen is one of my favourite things to do.
