A huge thank you to our kids, Chris and Elisa, for these pictures. During their recent visit, they had the opportunity to fly down the coast of Palawan in a small plane, and snapped off a few of our gorgeous coastline. These views remind me of what an old friend used to say, “If you haven’t been to Palawan, you’ve missed half your life.”

I love the colors and patterns the sea makes washing around this island in the Sulu Sea, off the coast of Palawan.
