Photographic Memories

You can only find this at Luneta Park, Manila . They provided a space for this art but, fenced/enclosed. This park has a historical value. It is the place where our national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal is executed by a Spanish Military by a firing squad and this is also his resting place. His last poem was “Mi Ultimo Adios” (My Last Farewell) which he wrote on the day before his execution.

Everyday scene as a vessel dock at ports. I first encountered this when we went to Cebu City via Cagayan de Oro. They call it Bajao people begging for passengers to toss coins into the water and part of the entertainment they will jump from their bangka/canoe, dive into the water to get the change. I pity those women who bring their infants with them. They just catch the coins by their makeshift open hamper.

We also visited the sunken cemetery in Camiguin. Due to the eruption of Mount Vulcan , the capital of Camiguin and its cemetery literally sunk under the sea. To spot the place they installed a huge cross made by solidified lava in 1982. We rode a boat just to get to the big cross. At first it was quite scary but you will get a hang of it. You can go up to the viewing deck of the cross by climbing the stairs which of course gives you a great view Camiguin. If you are brave enough you can have your diving at the site of the sunken cemetery and enjoy the coral covered tombstones.

Stop over. Time to take dip at Katibasan Falls , Camiguin. The pool is surrounded with wild ferns, flowers and trees. Believe it or not we climbed one of the slopes and dive at the green pool. Wow! That feels good. The waterfalls measured about 250 feet high. They have a rock picnic tables and seats and facilities are available for cooking. You can also buy souvenir items.
