NOW, you all know how I feel about Burberry...BUUUUT...I had really, really, really wanted to get my friend Kim one...cuz she LOVES plaid and ACTUALLLLY really thinks they are cute without even knowing that they were some really expensive brand!!! Soooo I was like...I'm soooo gonna get her one and she is absolutely gonna FLIP OUT!!! Weeeeeellll...would you believe that the FAKE BURBERRYS were STILLLLL waaaaay more expensive then the fake coaches... like $60 bucks?!?!? I was like whaaaaaaat??? As much as I LOVE KIM, I ain't paying THAT MUCH for a purse!!! (THATS FAKE!)

So when I came back I just gave Kim that lil fake COACH that I had gotten her...which she LOVED...and she totally understood about me not payin that much for the FAKE BURBERRY!!! BUUUUUT we officially decided THAT...

Landing in Bohol...

I can NOT even begin to explain to you all the feelin of exhileration that I felt when our airplane landed from Manila Philipines onto the island of Bohol!!! My brothers have told me about it soooooo MANY times before...BUUUUUUUUT...the experience was completley different!!!
.
Here I am on our hour flight from Manila to Bohol...SQUISHED...OMW...it was THE LONGEST HOUR EVERRRRRRRRR!!! LOLOLOL!!! (At least my seat belt still fits now!!!) When the sweward came for my drink request...my brothers were like, REALLLY MARY...you felt like it was necacessary to get coffee...and to mix in the cream and sugar right NOW too!!! LOL...YES... I DID!!! :)
.
Here we are flying over one of the many Philipine islands...there are over 7000 islands in the Philippines...Manila is the main one and the most Americanized...Bohol speaks a completely differnent language than Tagolag and is way more rural!!!
Most of the people on the island of Bohol have never EVEN been to Manila...
.
Here we are getting ready to land in Bohol...
Getting CLOSER!!!!

AND CLOSER!!!!!
AND OMW...WE LANDED!!!
 ON the runway AND there are houses still RIGHT THERE!!!
.
I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT!!!
I had been soooooo squished and was feeling soooo sick, my head and nose was soooo stuffed up and my ears were hurting me soooooooooo bad from NOT popping...BUT When I saw this airport and all the green beauty around me I was sooooo EXCITED!!! I could NOT stop smiling!!!
 I was LIKE THERESA!!! THIS IS SOOOOOO COOOOL!!! OMW!!! She was like...uuuuuh yeah...AHAHAHAHAHA!!!! It was also like...TOTALLY WARM AND HUME IT OUT...LOL!!!
AND you guys THIS IS IT!!! This ONE building was THE WHOLE ENTIRE AIRPORT!!! I was like in such AWWWWWWWW!!! I mean I have traveled ALL over before BUUUUUT i Have NEVERRRR eperienced such a LITTLE, in the middle of now where airport before!!!!
.

And let me tell you all, our trip home was an adventure from the very start!!! We pulled up into the airport in Manila and we get all our luggage out and we took seperate taxis to the airport and so we pay the cab drivers and we're hauling our luggage across the airport parking lot and John is like OH NO!!! He had left his and my mom's back packs on the back seat of the taxi...Cuz he was very distracted when he left...which I will explain to you all WHY soon, SO he is like OH NO!!! My backback had my passport in it!!! So we're like, UH THIS IS NOT GOOD!!! Cuz you can NOT leave without your passport!!!
