Last weekend we spent a good amount of time exploring our local mangrove forest. This is one our favorite places in the world. The trees are old and full, and walking amongst them is cool and refreshing. The bark is amazing, look at the colors! The area is full of life (small things) like this crab. We came across this little girl and her aunt collecting small snails to see in the market.





Steve was recruited to our municipality's basketball team. They play nearby municipalities and have games on the weekend. Steve is the tallest on our team, but there are guys on the other municipality teams that are bigger than him! A rarity here in the Philippines. This is a picture of him with Joshua his #1 fan.

Some evenings we go down to the ocean and spend time enjoying the sunset and watching kids playing in the water. Its really fun to watch them throwing sand at each other, or flipping into the waves.
