Mission team members relished our day away from work and the time we spent on the beach at San Roque. But in fact an even prettier beach was in our very own backyard in Laoang.
Later in the week, Cheryl and I took a 10-minute tricycle ride to the white sands of Onay Beach for a brief break from our recovery room and instrument sterilizing duties. The beautiful beach overlooking Laoang Bay was lined with coconut trees and loaded with seashells and beach glass.
The spot we walked was restful and peaceful - except for some occasional karaoke musical stylings arising from one of the nearby beach houses. After collecting our fair share of washed up beach treasures, we made a couple of pit stops.
It seemed poetic that one of the stops on the way back to my instrument-cleaning cell was the Laoang Jail. Despite the signage, we talked our way into the jail yard to chat with the guards in order to get the lowdown on the lowdown.
Great pictures of the beach! It definitely looks like a nice bit of respite from the daily grind. Any idea how many inmates we're in the slammer?
