After visiting the prison, Hank, John and Evans all went out to lunch to Sibuland by the ocean. Later we went up into the mountains beyond Valencia, where many expats live. Up there is a nice retreat spot for bible study along the river, although it was damaged a year ago in the typhoon. There is also a geothermal plant that powers the entire island and surrounding ones. It was only supposed to last four years but has been operating for over 20! They are able to clean out the sulfur deposits from the steam; quite smelly and similar to Yellowstone, although we didn't see any geysers. We also saw a golf course but no golfers. The downside is that the three of us got sick the next day, but are doing ok now. You can see in one of the pictures the basketball hoop in the middle of the jungle! The last picture is of a funeral procession.
