It is Dragon time - the year of the dragon is here, replacing the year of the rabbit. To celebrate, Kate, Alison, and I flew from Shanghai to meet up with Derek in Boracay, an island in the Philippines. Boracay is famous for White Beach, a beach considered by many to be one of top beaches in the world.
So, with the sole purpose of making you jealous, I've posted some pics of our lazy days in Boracay:

Here we are chilling in front of our hotel bar. |

Ladies and gentlemen - White Beach |
|
This is after an afternoon rainstorm. |
|
Everybody is jumping for joy when they are on vacation in Boracay...no, seriously. |
|
Sunsets and finding shells. |
|
The packed 2nd station as the sun begins to go down. |

Taking a walk to get a banana fruit shake at Jonah's. |

On our way from Caticlan Airport to the beach |
|
O Captain, my Captain |
|
From the boat, we took a tricycle (the taxi of Boracay) |
|
It was a tight fit for tall Derek. |
|
And Kate is enjoying herself |
|
The main strip |

This is right off the far end of White Beach |

Going for a sailing trip with Carmelo Anthony |
|
Not a bad night for a trip on a sailboat |
|
Derek and Alison are loving it too |
|
It seems pretty calm |
|
All smiles here |
|
And this was the last photo this camera would take - we are about to go under |
|
Our favorite nighttime activity - how many can you hit in 40 seconds? |
|
Nice form Derek! |
|
Alison is money, money, money (14 to be exact) |
|
Moneyball! |
|
Kate took up some painting on the beach |
|
A night out for an Indian dinner at True Food |
|

|
Our hotel was right next door to the Obama Grill - official campaign stop? |
|
Another night at Aria Italian restaurant |
|

Enjoying some cards before dinner - a great trip, and a great group of people |
