This might turn some serious tourists off, but the best view of the harbor is from the McDonalds fast food restaurant downtown.

Mc Donalds in Tacloban – video from McDonalds – a great location to watch the waterfront

Pardon the “Ormoc” that I put in the video clip – the 1 minute videos take me 5 hours to upload here in Samar so I will have to wait till I have a fast connection in Cebu to change it

We went back the next morning just to buy more oranges.

Nothing takes precedence over lunch time. I once had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finish their lunch before they could hand me their business card.

This one really deserves a look just because of it’s location.
