A word of advice to the adventurous traveler: when you see a girl that is not actually cute and kinda clearly has biceps, that is totally not a girl. But... delicious barbecue abounds, and you really don't have to mind the transsexuals while you are having dinner. Filipino men look really awesome in skirts, Kevin is the one exception to this rule. Exhibit A:

I thought Asia would be free of groping. Alas, this hypothesis was disproved last night. The perpetrator: what seemed to be a 10 year old Filipino kid high on glue fumes. Fabulous. The beggar children are really quite aggressive here. This was of course right after the strip bar incident. The only bar we could find on the strip looked legit from the outside except for the sign proclaiming that unescorted women were forbidden. And lo the inside was full of poles and bikinis. We awkwardly scurried out before we were actually inside, while the "bouncer" carrying a shotgun yelled after us in a thick accent "No good? No good?!?".
(Oh by the way, we are in Cebu City right now, on the island of Cebu)
After wandering more we came across a rather sketchy restaurant that served us "Strong Beer" which might or might not be the Asian equivalent to King Cobra. Exhibit B:

Chocolate Hills and Gummi Drop Mountains and small Asian primates to come....
