Swimming With Sardines

11 Jan 2017 246
Sorry about the bad photo, but 1) it's a phone photo, 2) the case slipped and the lens was not pointing through the clear part, 3) it was too hard to see what I was photographing, and 4) they were hard to photograph, anyway. So I just took dozens of bad photos. However, this sort of shows the sardines. There were thousands, swimming like a swarm. Like an entity unto themselves. Reaching out or diving down, the mass of black would open up and conform to your shape. It was a beautiful experience.

Again, many apologies for the bad photo, but I really did want to show something of how beautiful it was in the water here.

Our Boljoon Find

11 Jan 2017 281
Sometimes, when you can't find a place to stay, a place to stay finds you! Wandering, bedraggled and disheartened, a couple driving past said they had a room they could rent to us. This was our outlook.

Fort San Pedro

Hardly anyone was in the fort. I think everyone was at the mass at the cathedral!

Sinulog Festival

09 Jan 2017 299
There was little chance of us getting in to the cathedral in Cebu with the Sunulog Festival on, one of the biggest in this part of the world. We found a good view in an upstairs dining area of 7-Eleven, watching the crowds partaking with mass on big screens.
