Keeping it authentic: Best Western Manila
Another stop in manila. We one of the crew had to depart back to reality this morning so we are man down and missing her. But we had a wonderful spanish dinner last night with some of the kindest locals....a friend of a friend of a friend ya know.
The thing about Smores
is that they are only something that would happen in America. By America I mean the U.S.A. One of the many times I realized I was different recently was camping with girlfriends. Everyone knew what to do, how to stop a bear from eating you, how to keep water out of your tent, how to cook a 5 course meal over a campfire. I didn't grow up camping, in Arabia nobody wants to leave their home to go sleep in a tent. The U.N. gives tents to refugees when their homes get demolished by Israel. So the thought of sleeping in a tent for fun is not something that Arabs take lightly. Long story short, I felt like the odd guy at the campfire. One thing that came so naturally was of course THE SMORE. All the mushy goo goodness is so right.
