Hello again. I have read all about the visas but something is still unclear. I plan to enter for a 2-3 week period in mid Jan and then leave for Philippines for a month and then come back to LOS for another 2 weeks.I thought they would be considered 2 separate visits and not requiring getting a visa ahead of visit. I will have RT tickets both from USA to BKK and from BKK to Manila. Will I have a problem? Thanks

First of all I want to say I am very much thankful for the info from this board! Am heading to LOS in Jan for first trip. Recently retired from Army (27 yrs) and this is my present to myself. Also will be in Philippines for 1 month. ? When I buy a cell phone here in LOS will it also be usable in the Philippines? Should I make RT reservations to PI now or wait till I arrive in LOS? Is it possible to rent golf clubs? As I would prefer not to bring my own. I am sure other questions will follow but that is it for now. Hoping to meet up with others and experience new things. Aloha
