Oh my GOSH

#1 Post by tlynn78 » Mon Mar 04, 2024 2:59 pm

Just for kicks, I googled our old address in the PI, and found the house we lived in 40 years ago. I legit thought the town was buried when Pinatubo blew, but that neighborhood, at least, is still there...27 Del Pilar, Angeles City, Pampanga, PI

If I ever figured out the photo thing, I've forgotten... but you can put the address into the google and it takes you to the street view...

It looks humid. The nearby Angeles City Guesthouse is only $12/night.

This is where I was living at that time: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Hotel ... ?entry=ttu

I thought since I left Atlanta for there, I was prepared for the humidity. I was wrong.

Caracas is about 3000 feet high, so it was mild, even in monsoon season.
