Philippine Bucket List?

[Gratefuled]

Many of us have something that we never did but wish we had. For those of you here in the Philippines, is there anything you have not done or been that you still want to do or go? 

I want to go to Palawan and ride a boat on the underground river.

If you do travel that far for the experience..... I learned this long after I did the bit..... ask about an extended tour beyond the normal in-and-out tour.  I read somewhere that for some extra pisos, you can go in further. Since its a once-in-a-lifetime trip for most of us, it would be worth it to go the extra distance and bear the extra cost.  Just my after-the-fact opinion.

Anything that I can think of that I really want to do, I've done.  But I'm working on my second go-round and there are many, many things I want to do again, like take "Y" to Disneyland and/or on a cruise ship.  I've done that quite often but she has not.  Then there are the second-string events like Singapore and Thailand.  I've never been to either and it might be nice but I won't be crying on my death bed if I never get there.

More on the 'things to do again list' are:

See my mother and my grandkids again.

(oops, can't 'list' them as it comes up double spaced and looks retarded so lets try again)

1)  Mother and grandkids.  2)  Disneyland and cruise ship 3)  If I'm ever single again I'll spend another week in Angeles on Fields Ave,  4)  If I'm ever wealthy enough I'll buy me another big size pick up like an Isuzu D Max . .  and the list goes on.

Oh my...my list changes daily but for today I am hoping to get caught up on paperwork :) Stuck here working in USA I am unable to have that time to think what I want to do and spend all the time thinking about what i have to do. Corregidor Island definetely would like to do that again. Best tour I have been to in Phil!

I just want to get to Phils and start my next life chapter with my SO.

Palawan and El Nido would be nice I think. Maybe some more short trips to Manila. I'd really like to take one of those walking foodie tours of the Binondo/Chinatown district.

Thanks, I'll consider that advice. Just one thing, I might get claustrophobia underground and want to jump overboard and return to entrance. ( smile )

That is different. I've not heard of anyone ever going to Corregador. The only thing that I remember about Corrigador is that General MacArthur began his return to the Philippines from there. My father was in New Guineau with the US Army before the invasion of the Philippines. He said there were head hunters there.
