One other interesting thing happened at Coco Grove. I had planned to try to observe any interesting astronomical events that might be available, but during the wet season the sky is often covered with a thin layer of clouds. The stars only appeared occasionally. Also, lacking Internet access, I wasn't able to get up-to-date predictions for International Space Station (ISS) passes.
But one night at the swim-up bar at Coco Grove, little Deric said, "Why is that star moving?" Deric, Devon and I got a nice and clear view of the very bright 'moving star'. We later confirmed that it was the ISS making a perfect pass almost directly over Siquijor.

Thank you Deric!!
