Thanks a lot Raja Muda,

I stayed on Mactan last week. I didn't hunt extensively for swords but I can tell you to not bother with Carbon Market. Also, the guitar seller at the Lapu Lapu memorial has some nice stuff at pretty good prices, if you can catch him open.

Boy, I'm starting to miss those green mango shakes already....

I STAYED AT THE MAGELLAN HOTEL IN CEBU AND BOOKED MY DIVING THERE WITH ( DIVE INN), A SMALL OPERATION ON MACTAN IS. RAN BY PADI INSTRUCTOR STU GOULD . ITS BEEN QUITE A WHILE SO I DON'T KNOW IF HE WILL STILL BE IN BUSINESS BUT IF HE IS HE IS A FUN GUY AND GOOD DIVER.
HIS BOATS ARE LITTLE OUTRIGGERS BUT WORK GOOD FOR DIVING AND HIS OLD VAN WAS A MIRACLE THAT IT RAN

. BUT HIS COMPRESSOR AND EQUIPMENT WERE FIRST RATE. I STAYED OVER AT HIS PLACE AND WE DOVE DURING THE DAY AND DID ONE NIGHT DIVE BUT USUALLY WENT TO THE LOCAL COCK FIGHTS OF A EVENING. THE LOCAL DRINK IS GOOD BEFORE THE FIGHTS BUT DON'T GET ANY AFTER THE FIGHTS AS THEY WILL BE DOWN TO THE DREGS YUCK!! BUT THEN I DON'T LIKE BELUT SO WHAT DO I KNOW

.
IF YOU SEE STU TELL HIM I SAID HI. GOOD LUCK
