Room 2, Casa Miranda
Another beautiful day on the island paradise of Siquijor. Not sure what the day will bring, as I have no specific plans, but I doubt it will involve much cycling. I went for a ride around the entire island yesterday, and what with stopping off at several places to check them out and go swimming, …

Room 2, Casa Miranda

I turned that potentially pleasurable occasion into a seventy-kilometer triathlon event, a robbery, and a couple of hours in the company …

Okay. Now how do I get my bicycle off the boat?

Casa Miranda guest house – Room 2
Ah, where to start? I stopped writing yesterday because I looked up and saw a bunch of people streaming out the door of the harbor building and going toward a small GL Express boat. I remembered that my boat to Siquijor was a GL Express boat, and I realized that that was …
