2002 - It's A Wrap
 
 
  June 12 - Independence Day  
     
   
 

 
  I absolutely loved watching all the people and traffic coming and going in the streets during the parade.  You won't see anything like this in Pompano Beach, I'll tell you.  The little tricycle you see up front there is used to haul livestock.... or kiddos, whichever you happen to have!  
     
   
     
  Generally speaking, the only place you will see buses is on the highways.  But in town the Jeepneys run routes just like the city buses do in the States.  You can tell where each Jeepney will take you by reading the route painted on it's side.  No help to me, of course.  Where is Lagao anyway?  Hehehe  
     
   
     
  It appears that, for these little guys, I was the highlight of the parade that day.  Or maybe they just had a wager on the actual length of my nose??  
     
   
     
  The entire time I was standing atop the Jeepney, taking pictures of the parade, there was a group of guys behind me playing basketball.  By the way, for those who don't know it, basketball is the national sport in the Philippines.  I saw games being played almost everywhere we went for the duration of my visit!
