From MIke USA November 2000

    Hey I just wanted to drop you a note and say thank you for all the effort
you gave in planning our recent trip to the Philippines.  Our stay at your
Inn was very nice and we had a great time diving with Dive Right.  All of
your staff at the inn was very fun and provided great service, especially the
two girls who work the bar and restaurant.  The food was also very tasty,
enjoyed the calamari.  We got out on the night of the 2nd on a 5pm Sea Air
flight back to Manila because the change in the Asian Spirit time from 8:45am
to 1pm made our Sunday the 3rd plan to hard to do.  All in all it was a great
trip with lots of fun memories.  See you again in a year or so, and I'll pass
on the word to anyone I know looking to travel to the Philippines for diving.

Everything was as you promised, and the addition of the visit to

Dear Harry and Josie,

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at the Kalamayan Inn.  We were only able to stay 1 night since my lovely wife desired to stay in lodging overlooking the water.  However, we patronized your restaurant every day for meals and fresh buko.  Your place was the only place to serve fresh buko!  On several occassions, we purchased fresh sea food at the market such as crabs and had your kitchen staff prepare them for
us.  Your staff was incredible and very friendly.  When my brother in law arrived we also took him and his wife there for dinner.

We also met another couple on Jeep ride over to your inn that happens to live less than 1 mile from us in Fremont, CA.  Small world!  They too found your inn on the internet.

Jose', the banca driver whom we met at your place also took us out for a 1 day excursion.  He was an excellent boatman and his assistant Johnny was a professional fisherman.  Between Jose', Johnny, my wife Idy, her brother Raymond, and Rima, we caught more fish than we could eat!  Another banca driver by the name of Edmund was our host for 1 day.  He was the friendliest of banca drivers.  He prepared fresh roasted
fish for us as well as acted as our personal tour guide to some remote lakes on Coron Island.

Thanks for making our stay in Coron so pleasurable!  We only wish that we could have met you Harry!  Josie was the most excellent host.  She has charm and wit.

Regards,

Mark & Idy
Fremont, CA

Many thanks to you and Josie for arranging a great weekend for Gunter and
me. Everything went very smoothly and it was all most enjoyable. We both
managed to pass on both courses so overall it was a great success.

I now realise what I have been missing by delaying a Coron trip for the
last couple of years (or more). Certainly, I intend returning before the
end of the year and I'll spread the word round other ADB divers about who
to contact for a great weekend.

Thanks again and hope to see you soon,

Nigel

Harry:  Thanks so much for all your help arranging this; the information, daily e-mails,
package price and all the help with airline ticketing, reservations and a map, not
to mention arranging for it to be at the Mercure Phillipine Hotel when we arrive.
 I really appreciate all the help and would like to buy you a few rounds, not to
mention a gratuity for all you have done.  Looking forward to meeting you in person.
 Bob

It's been awhile. I have been home for over two weeks again.
Just want to send my regards and THANK YOU again for your assistance in my
recent Palawan trip. Everything worked out great. We had a super time -
very relaxing - on the Esperanza, Coron was cute  and the Kalamayan nice.
Also all arrangements in Manila, Hotel, xfers etc. worked out.

There was ONE problem we BOTH forgot. You did ORDER any wind for us!  :-))
We had the sails up ONCE, the rest we motored around! Next time, put that
into your TO DO LIST !!!
