My Day In The Phillipines Entry 1

Wow, I get off the the plane and the scent of jet fuel over whelms me. I get into the terminal in Manilla, where I connect to another flight to the small airport of Trinidad, Bohol. Once I managed my way through the Airport, I found my gate and hopped on my flight just in time. I was so tired from the flight before I passed out on the hour long plane ride only to be shaken awake by the flight attendent when I got there. I step out of the plane and look around. I see a very small airport and a farm about 300 yards away. I can't hear much with the propeller spinning but once it stopped I can here birds and monkeys off in the distance. I stepped down from the plane and go into the airport where I see my driver. His name is Juan he is very nice. He drove me to Marco's house where I tipped him $5 he was very excited to see American money for some reason. I met Marcos and talked to him for a while, but it was getting late and he had to go to the market to get some food for dinner. He took me to his house first  and showed me where my room was. It was very small but comfortable and a nice made bed. In the time he was gone I got all my stuff layed out and started playing temple run. When he came back through the door he had a bag of tortillas, chicken, vegetables and guava juice. He said he bought a fancy dinner  because he had a guest. He set his stuff down and then he put his wallet down on the table. I realized it was empty and I felt so bad he was treating me to a nice dinner so I pulled out my money and asked him where I could convert my money. He took me to a hotel very close to his house. I exchanged $500 for Philippino Pesos. On the walk back I gave him $100 worth of Pesos. He refused but I told I really wanted him to take it for dinner and he did. It made me feel good to of helped him even more. We went home and I helped him make dinner he took the tortillas and sliced them and then he took the chicken and chopped it up. He then diced the vegetables and put all the food in boiling water. When it was done boiling he got two bowls and two cups and served us our food and guava juice. It was very good and it smelled amazing. After that I he washed the dishes and and told me I looked tired and to go to bed.
