I think you where very civil, you even said please !!
If a person is really interested he would read all prior post, then ask for information and updates etc. That is what i did to start even now i go back to earlier post to check information.
[QUOTE=Guinness]Well said my friend. Have fun in the PI next month sorry we just missed each other.

I'm not Junior and many others are not as well.
TIU only wishes to post very bland reports and then always responds to others post with insults as if he is the final say on everything. He has already admitted that in dealings with DM, it is not what she offered and I'm sure others will find the same. If other girls were allowed to place ads it would be worse. That was my point among others. TIU only wanted his opinion heard, so if someone had a different opinion from his, he responded in a derogatory manner. Did I respond in kind? Yes, Should I? Maybe not.
But TIU always resorts to this behavior to everyone when he feels someone has an opinion different from his own.
There is a thread for this, why post here?
Hopefully Jackson will move my and all other responses to the proper section.

Hi to all,
I was searching the forum for info about Puerto Galero and found some posts, also did my search on the web about places to stay. I fly to Phils in 3 days and decide to take my gf to Puerto galera.Im not a newbie, but new to go to Mindoro. Any suggestion on hotels there? I go with my filipina gf (not from bar) and looking for middle priced place (up to 2500p a day). quiet, maybe seaview.
I checked info about Franklyn highland resort, Garden of Tabinay..they looked nice..anyone can give info on that??
After that I go Angels City for christmas and new year and will give an update about that.
Any PM s welcome.
Happy hunting to all.
[QUOTE=Traveler1234]Fellow mongers, can you help out Sammon. I'm a business and accounting type of guy and it looks like he doesn't need help on this front. My apologies.
I think he needs biology major and maybe even a psyc major to give him some feedback and advice :-)[/QUOTE]Guys,
Lest we forget, in the PI "Cherry Girl" can simply mean she has not been with anyone other than a Filipino!
Not a "virgin" as such.
I live here and have talked with many "Cherry Girls" and most say they are "Cherry Girl" because they have not been with a foreigner.
Besides, unless you are into the blood, fear, and pain, my money is better spent on someone with experience.

Thanks Porty,
But I'm sure CL was just taking a friendly poke at me, as friends do.
But I am trying not to be so impatient, as I've been in the past.
Later,
FD

JMHO[/QUOTE]Thanks for the info. That is the first time I've heard the real definition of a "cherry girl".
At one time "Cherry Girl" meant that she wasn't in the business before, and hadn't been paid to play, not that she was virgin. In AC, you were a "Cherry Boy" if you hadn't paid for sex in AC before.

If you're staying in Sabang, the Atlantis is nice. It's couples friendly, not overun with BG's. OK, but small pool. The seaview suite is very nice, but a long climb up the steps. Great resturant and decent (for the Philippines) wine list.
La Laguna and Small L.L. have nice places too, but I've never stayed that far from the action.
Good luck,
FD
I'll second FD's assessment of the Atlantis; I stayed in the oceanfront 'suite' last year. However, it should be said that the room was about the size of a closet. So small that there wasn't even enough room to unpack.
As for two people in the bed; thats going to be uncomfortable. Thats why I did 'short time' only. The sound of the waves breaking on the beach was very nice though. And right downstairs, there's good food and all the bars etc.

May I suggest a family-resort. It's called Coco Beach, and is located on the northeast coast of Mindoro. It is a quiet place, but not to far from puerto galera, and you can go there with a banca to party. I never did, as with family. They have both aircon and non-aircon huts in classic style. Good restaurant. OK pool. The beach is not too good, but you can use their services/bancas and go to better beaches in the area. You may call them in Malate on (63 2) 521 52 60, (63 2) 526 45 94 or (63 2) 523 03 19 and ask their rates. They will also pick you up at the airport. You can also rent diving gear and go with their experienced dive masters, which I did a few years back.

On an earlier trip this year, I snorkelled and swam both in Puerta Galera and Davao's Pearl Farm. In both places, we were bitten constantly by transparent jellyfish. If the sun's rays hit the water at the right angle, it is possible to see the jellyfish; I would guess they are about three inches long and the color of glass. Impossible to avoid.
The Coral Gardens near Sabang was the worst as we snorkelled there for about an hour and spent the next several days scratching the bites. When we got back to the Atlantis, we asked the guys at the dive shop about this but they were non-committal. One said that it was a seasonal thing.
Its definitely something to keep in mind. Anyone else have this problem?
Don
No problem..........just wear a wetsuit!
Jellyfish do tend to be a seasonal problem. So Dashing Don, when are jellyfish in season?

When my wife and I were in Cebu we decided to go to Blue Water Resort one day so we could swim at the beach. We were in the water for maybe 15 to 20 minutes and started itching really bad. It really affected my legs and back while it affected my wifes back and arms. It was almost like a rash. We decided to swim in their pools instead. The next day we were fine. I never saw anything in the water. I even looked for Jellyfish but I didn't see anything. I've always been a little paranoid since I saw Jaws when I was 6 or 7. ha ha ha...
I was really disappointed as we didn't spend much time at the beach during my trip and the resort we stayed at the most in Bohol (Bohol Tropics) didn't have a beach for swimming.
Any ideas....
