Day 8 - Food Poisoning!



It was bound to happen. After another great day of lounging in the sun, we decided to head down to Sabang beach in the evening. We headed to Captain Gregg's, which is a dive centre/restaurant/resort. All big places there work like this, especially on Sabang. It's dive central.

Anyway, long story short, Greg ordered the "chuck burger" on the menu. I warned him against eating it. It's a HUGE burger with a thick beef patty with slabs of ham topped with strips of bacon. That is not normal, even if you do eat meat. About 4 or 5 hours later, he started not feeling so hot. An hour or two after that, he was dashing in and out of the bathroom violently throwing up and subjected to other uncontrollable bodily functions. We were up all night, needless to say.

Worst of all, there was the dreaded trip back to Manila tomorrow morning.
