I was browsing through photos during Jordan's stay here in the Philippines and I reverted to the best days I've ever had. I realized that I'm sure other couples on here can share their favorites and a gist of the story behind the picture. :)

I had a hard time selecting which one I favored the most but out of a bunch of them, I gravitated towards this one and it happens to be my profile pic on MySpace. Harhar.

It was Jordan's last night in the Philippines so we headed out to Greenbelt 5 and ate a scrumptious dinner at Kai. We had such a splendid evening so we headed to Cafe Havana afterwards to have some drinks. Jordan had his usual Rhum Coke while I ordered a bottle of Gilbey's Premium Strength Green Tea Gin. (I love that stuff!!!) - - - boracha :D

We had a serving of "Banana Republic" (a.k.a Platanos) and Jordan had an idea of making me taste something new so after getting a laugh out of what to get, I finally called the waitress and whispered...

"Excuse me, can I uh.. have a #######?" :innocent:

She looked so shocked that she stared at me and it felt like she was peering into my soul! Hahahahaha.. After the waitress got a whiff of that, she just nodded and scurried off though it was so evident that she was stifling her laugh.

Haaaaaaaa.. Memories!!! :D

This photo was taken on the last day of our honeymoon.

Anna had just been certified as Open Water Scuba Diver earlier that day.

I had realized my enjoyment of diving on WWII Wrecks during the week we were there.

We dove for the first time without an instructor in the water with her on a WWII Freighter, "El Captian" in Subic Bay.

The DM who accompanied us took this pic of us together at the mooring line. We were standing on the side of the wreck.

I can't express how much I'm looking forward to resuming our diving together after she gets here, too bad she won't join me ice diving this winter though..
