Feasting in the Philippines

One thing we found in ample supply during our visit to the Philippines was food. I can say without a doubt that we were never hungry during out trip - not for one single minute. Our incredibly gracious hosts saw to it that we were always within arm's reach of mass quantities of food. This day we visited the beautiful Barin family mango orchard where we were treated to a roast pig, fresh tilapia, boiled shrimp, crab, roasted eggplant, sticky rice, bottomless bowls of soup, some sort of delicious beef dish, endless San Miguel beers, the "world's tenderest chicken™" and, oh yes - fresh mangos.

After the feast thedude took Kelly for brief but hair-raising spin around the property in a tricycle.
