Hail to the Hive!

Seven years ago I arrived in Panagsama Beach here in the Philippines at midnight after a grueling trip half way around the globe from Jamaica. Hive account@millycf1976 wanted bed and sleep immediately but I needed a #BEER

One of the staff at the dive shop was there waiting knowing we would be arriving and when I said I need a beer they led me 50m down the seafront to a little bar known as 'Esters Bar'

I still remember drinking there that night tired and happy and feeling pretty cool in this little seafront bar with only about 4 people there. Was a nice introduction to the place.

"Esters Bar' like my dive shop have had to pull back from the seafront to comply with the coastal easement zone enforcement so it's a totally different bar now with the old one completely gone. Torn down. But they rebuilt behind it and it's a nice little spot, same staff from 7 years ago aswell, which is nice. Tonight I sit here with a friend going down memory lane and knocking back ice cold San Miguel Pilsen saying that my first and last beers here will be served by the same bartender. I only have about 7 weeks left so need to make the most of it. So I think I'll get the next round in....

mmmmmm Beer 😛
