The continuing saga of a Brooklyn monk come to Manila to study EMT. Stumbled onto this randomly? Read this article first.

Second of four parts. Read Part 1.

The EMS guys and all the bigwigs with titles went home, and I shared the radio room/bedroom with two firemen who couldn’t speak English. Because I was the oldest, they let me sleep on the trolley cart. It was so unbelievably uncomfortable, I felt bad for the patients. Part of the issue was that the mattress was covered by a wooden spineboard. Back at school, our instructor Sir Aidan had been a staunch opponent of these injurious boards. All spineboard advocates should try sleeping on one, once before recommending them for use on others.

The TV apparently didn’t work, but the computer did, and we watched Rambo IV. The firemen were curious and tried to ask me about the war in Burma. Unfortunately their English and general knowledge were so limited that it was impossible to explain it to them.

Birdwatching is an activity that young and old would enjoy. The youngest of our birdwatching delegation at Candaba was two.

Planning to go birdwatching? Here are some basic tips for first-time birdwatchers from the Wild Bird Club of the Philippines:

  1. Wear clothes in colors that blend with the environment, such as green, dark brown, and gray. Don’t wear anything bright or you’ll stand out and scare the birds away.
  2. Apply some sunscreen. Birdwatching usually goes on for hours so you want to make sure you’re protected. Wear light, long-sleeved clothes. Bring a hat as well.
