Great pics! Were you the designated photographer for the trip? :D Tell Laura that I said she is very blessed already, and doesn't need anymore blessings from the locals! :D

 

New pic 5

Yes sir, Knowdafish, I am the official photographer. More bless for Laura

 

Jose great photos, but who is the white lady...Laura?
What's the connection....JB

 

hey, jose - which part of negros or PI are you from? sorry i do not have time to browse your old posts (maybe you mentioned it), but gawd - you do make me miss PI more and more...thank you for posting your pics...(and laura is your wife? nice to know that she embraces the 'amen or mano po' tradition:D)

 

Josephen and Jb, Iam local boy and grew up and born in dgte. We have a house in cervantes corner urdaneta st (now different name). Laura is my wife and talking about amen, she got a boat load of it from dgte up to siaton. My maternal relatives are the Ege and Kinikito of Siaton. Dgte has change a lot since I left in 1987. Too many pedicabs and people. Locals told me most of them are not from dgte, and when school are off, native dgtenous are left behind and that starts to be interesting because most of us knows each other.

 

thank you for that, jose - and funny my travel agent here is from siaton and her maiden name is ege!
guess laura will continue giving blessings/amen to kids in ohio...really nice to see it again, and to see it from a foreigner, WOW, that really is something!

 

And some more

 

Great pics! Were the sailboat models on the boulevard? Those are really cool!

 

Jose,
Thanks for the great pic's. Next year I will go and swim with the Whale Sharks again in Don Sol, shouldn't be hard to shoot over to Palawan from there.
