Tripping in Philly
We're traveling to Philadelphia to visit our friend Vanessa.
And eat cheesesteaks!
Day 1: Ontario, CA to Philadelphia, PA
The Journey
Boarded a before-humans-wakeup flight from Onatrio International (ONT) to Philadelphia (PHL) by way of a quickie layover in Phoenix (PHX).
On the PHX - PHL flight we lucked out with new, upgraded, German-designed seats on our Boeing 737-800 which feaured increased width and legroom. This was after squeezing into the traditional sardine-sized seats on our flight from ONT, but LG didn't mind.

DAY 0: USA
One special Flips on Trips blogger is returning to the motherland! (That's me, by the way)
After a 14+ hour plane ride from LAX, official stops will include Lucena, Polillo Island, Palawan, and -- of course -- Manila. It will be a mix of "Hello, Aunties!" and "Hello, Tourist Site!" I'll be traveling with my wonderful parents / tour guides. It's been over 20 years since my father has been home so it will be fun to see his reactions to the changes.
I'm currently spraying my clothes with permethrin and stocking up on anti-motion sickness meds. Last time I was there in the late 1980s I threw up the aftereffects of a rather turbulent ferry ride for several days, all the while keeping mosquitoes well fed (from my blood, not my upchunks). I'll eventually post a list of product reviews and travel tips, but for now enjoy the vacation recaps below!
