^^^ not possible to embed images from facebook.

It is but Facebook reference the filename in a shorter form for display on their site so you have to right click on the actual photo on the Facebook site and copy the complete url to be used with our image tag.

Does this make sense? I'm having a hard time explaining it. PM if you need more help.

So this:

PI Info


General Info:

Here are some good places with primer info on the PI:
* Philippines - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
* Wikipedia's overview of Tourism in the PI.
* CIA factbook
* Transportation: Check out this thread on how to get around the PI


Tourism Websites:

* WOWphilippines: the PI government's tourism website, but more so for data info & stats on the tourism industry and potential investors. To find out info about certain places, start at the interactive map.

* Visit my Philippines: Dept of Tourism portal for tourists on traveling the PI. Pretty horrible site to navigate, but they do have good info on ecotourism, visitor information, useful phrases, and most importantly - regional information (tourist attractions and all)

* Experience Philippines: Sister site of Wowphilippines, geared towards tourists. Includes tour packages, info on regions and places, history, and things to do.

* Lonely Planet Guide to the PI: Although Scubaboard still dominates on diving info, overall, Lonelyplanet is a great resource about traveling in the Philippines.
