Munting Buhangin Beach Camp Munting Buhangin Beach Camp Details Although Munting Buhangin Beach Camp doesn't have white sand to boast, it's quite an isolated place which makes the resort stand out. Its light brown sand, sprinkled with different kinds of shells, is cleaned daily by the dedicated staff of the resort. Sadly, during my visit, a broken piece of glass buried in the sand gave one of my toes a deep cut but I know that it's just a rare case (no one needs to be fired) and nobody wanted that to happen.

Day 13   May 29, 2018 Universal Studios Japan Before sleeping last night, I checked if the weather forecast today would change for the better. Last I checked, it would be cloudy with a 10% chance of rain so the first thing I did when I woke up today was to check the skies for any signs of rain clouds...   Welcome to Universal Studios Japan ! (Sorry about my wife's head) Look who came to welcome my daughter... You would surely love strolling at USJ I'm very wary of today's weather because we booked a ticket for Universal Studios Japan (USJ) . It was quite a gamble really as we had to choose between May 28 (yesterday), 29 (today), and 30 (tomorrow) for our USJ trip.

So, we pray that the weather today would somehow be similar or better than yesterday.  Picture taking with Jaws! God must have heard...
