<p>[QUOTE="JoshA, post: 367841, member: 7686"]My wife’s mother is from Ilocos (Laoag) and her Father from Mindanao (Zamboanga). I would like to visit Zamboanga because it is known as “the City of Flowers”, but there is also a lot of terrorist activity. As an American and former Soldier, I’m slightly nervous about visiting the area until it calms down a bit. Being kidnapped by Abu Sayyaf would make for a bad vacation! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> Laoag is where my wife grew up but she has been in the US for over 20 years, so I’m sure it looks nothing like when she left. I hate to admit it, but aside from wanting to eat all the different foods, and seeing where my wife is from, I REALLY want to do some treasure hunting while I’m there. Not just for local artifacts, but also reminants of the Japanese occupation during WWII. I like WWII stuff and my Father-in-law tells me some pretty crazy things about that time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
