an old fort that guarded the city many years ago
the courtyard in that fort looks decidedly civilian
the view looking up from a swimming pool on the 7th floor
creepy artwork at an upscale shopping mall at the center of town
a local delicacy is presented as a two pound slab of meat and bone
bamboo at a nearby taoist temple
pizza napoli is prepared just divinely in this part of the world
an afternoon session of tequila tasting at a watering hole near the hotel
the local neighborhood as seen from my window
not sure how the bicycle is made to stand upright in the rain and wind
a museum dedicated to the history of the immediate region
a post modern church built in honor of a recent hometown saint
a jeepney seen behind a rain-drenched car window
a clearing where kids are playing a pickup game of volleyball
an urban beautification program consisting of recycled bottles and plants
a street vendor takes a break to read up on the progress of the typhoon sweeping through the region
a rooster standing proudly on a working well
street children at a corner of busy streets
view from a taxi
walking to a private island for a lunch of grilled seafood and beer
a sandbar at low tide
a tourist snorkler inundated by fish
weather up ahead of my boat
pleasure craft anchored above a coral reef
