Barobo White Island Adventure

My friend took this video at Barobo, Surigao del Sur. This is one of the stops we had during our Surigao del sur and Agusan del sur road trip last 2006.

We had a great time enjoying the pristine beaches and its raw almost untouched beauty. You will be delighted at how people at Barobo take care of their natural resources especially their bodies of water.

Video taken using Nokia N70.

My Tartanilla Ride At Manila

My mama and I went to Manila last January. I only have my Kodak camera then. Maybe it was a good thing because I might've dislocated my trigger finger if I had a faster camera--- with flash.

I busted the flash last December taking a lot of photos nonstop. I've mellowed down some. Anyway, I have taken a lot of photos while we were playing the tourist at the Philippine's capital--- as we should. We were tourist! hehe I am almost always mistaken for a tourist here in my hometown how much more when I'm really one!

I don't have much to say about where we went because I'm really terrible with names, directions and places. All I can say is it was an experience to remember.

Lots of traffic, dust, funny sights...

...smoke, and of course the flamboyant horse. I forgot what his name was. Henry-- I think?

We caught the ride after our excursion at the Manila zoo.

Mama and I were really determined to get the most of our vacation (haha) there.

I think this was at Roxas Boulevard.

And... I forgot where this is.

If you haven't ever ridden a caratela, or tartanilla or horse carriage before-- You have (almost) now. Without the heat and smoke that went with it. hehe
