A Few Pictures of Puerto Princesa

A Jeepney, kind of a local bus.

A typical shop on the outskirts of Puerto.

Oren and Sheva walking past a tricycle ( 100 pesos to be driven where you want for an hour!)

A pork butcher in the market- in the front you can see the lower leg with trotters, used for making pata, crispy pork leg.

An octopus stall!

A fish and seafood stall.

The Yacht Club jetty.

The bar (a quiet day…)

Kids playing near the yacht club.
Oren has started to make a wind-vane ( we got plans for one from a cruiser we met in Singapore), so keep posted for pictures of various large pieces of metal being tortured in different ways, heroic attempts to attach bolts and screws to the stern of Chasamba as she tries to sail off with her boom between her legs, and a lot of beer drinking- after all, it’s thirsty work, wind vane making, and even writing about it….

I have enjoyed reading your blog. I would love to do something like it–esp around Thailand and the Philippines. A few suggestions–how about putting at the top of each post what country you are in, several times I have used google to try and figure out where you are at—which leads me to ….how about putting a small map showing your route…. I really do enjoy your blog—a question or two–can you write a post about how much you spend each month on food, entertainment and what the cost of boat maintenance, dockage, maybe visas is. I like the pictures included with the post vs at photobucket. Thanks ever so much for both the info and the entertainment. Michael (jazz) |
