As I have written earlier the philippin people wakes up very early in the mornings. Guess it´s because it gets dark 17.30 all year and the sun goes up around 4.30. My dogs were barking at 5.45 and then we heard a man at our frontdoor. The lock was broken and he came to fix it. That was to early for us so we sent him home. We don´t go to bed like the philippines in the evenings, ha ha. The man came back later today and now the door is as new again.

This morning we went to Babak again to see how it goes with the apartment we are moving to. It´s 6-8 men working on the building so it goes fast. After we took a walk to the center of the small city. Takes just 3-4 minutes to go come to the center. We have to explore the town a little bit more. The shops are not modern as in Europe but we like them as they are, even if it´s dirty inside and you can see a mouse running on the floor. Nothing gets my eyes big anymore, i have seen so much strange things. They have animals everywhere, all sorts. We have some rats running on the electricity cable every evening where we live now. I see them when i´m working on our terrace in the evenings. Sometimes they stop in front of me and sees what i´m doing and then they run away again. It´s just 2 meters away from where i sit, he he. I´m not scared anyway, they are quite cute.

To be a white man here is really amazing, it´s like living on another planet. Everything is so different here also the people. They always have a smile on their faces. They walk under the umbrellas and have towels around the heads to get some shadow. Often they wear long jeans and sweatshirts to hide the skin from the sun, For them it doesn´t matter how warm it is, and it´s often around 32-34 degrees. I have as little clothes as possible on me, ha ha. This travel will give me and George a lot of life experiences. That´s why we came here and i´m very grateful for that.

A new lovely puppy is often our gest now. She and her mother lives in the neighbors house but the puppy prefere our company now. We call her Monica and we like when she spend her days with us. I belive she is around 16 weeks old. She gets a lot of food and like to relax on our terrace. She has a very nice personality  but my dog Elvira is a little jealous. My heart would like to take her with me to Spain, but i´m not going to. She would be a lovely company for my mother and sister in Sweden. ♥

Do you see the rat on the dark picture? That´s one of the rats i see running in front of me in the evenings.The puppy  Monica with her mother on the stairs. They always sleep outside in the nights.

George outside the laundry shop, they wash our clothes every week. It cost 100 pesos for 6 kilos, It´s about 1 euro 20 cents and 10 swedish crowns. The lovely pig lives in front of us, in one of the neigbors gardens. Sometimes they move the animals to other places so they have new grass to eat. Basket is a big thing here, and we often see them play…
