Day

Day 1 - Zoe & Ashleigh

Saturday 22nd November
Today’s start as we all scrambled to get everything we needed packed for the trip and get to the airport for 10 pm. The waiting started as we progressed through the lines filled with excitement and angst of what was to come. Made it through customs, with plenty of time for debrief, getting all the information for our trip. The trip was finally here!

Sunday 23rd November

Our first flight finally took off at 2:05, the excitement of the trip was growing as we advanced throughout this flight. The lucky slept and the unlucky who couldn’t sleep watched movies on the small screens and listened to others snoring. Our first meal was breakfast on this flight and we were all so hungry we ate all we were given.

We arrived in Singapore at 7:20am, our first pit stop. We added journal entries and wrote letters to ourselves for the end of the trip. We were so tired, hopefully it all made sense. Leaving Singapore at 9:35 we travelled to Manila. Arriving at 1:10 we had a yummy lunch that gave us some more energy to keep going.  We then dragged ourselves through the airport and waiting to board our next flight.
Our first domestic flight was to Bacolod, this trip was a lot quicker than the rest. Thank goodness for that! When we got to Bacolod we grabbed our entire group’s luggage and headed to the bus.


We then met with Pastor Gary and travelled by bus to dinner. We arrive and demolished Chicken on a stick, rice and pork. This was an awesome meal everyone enjoyed. Afterwards Mr Beacham treated everyone to an ice cream or chocolate bar. On the way to the hotel we debriefed all the information needed for tomorrow including the 4:30am wakeup call we will be receiving from the hotel staff… yay that should be interesting!

The WiFi isn't great at the moment so we will get some pictures to you as soon as we can.  We are looking forward to an early nights sleep.

God Bless
