Hey there guys, I have some of the exact same pictures from my travels to Banaue. Enjoy your travels, they'll end sooner than you'd like. I have only fond memories of my trip now. The blog that my girlfriend and I wrote about our travels, if you feel like having a look, can be found when you search Mr Shake A leg. Safe travels, Matt
