I'd love to be onboard on one of those boats and see how they fight back in the old days...<br /><br />Nice photos as well.

They are all seaworthy as their ancient counterparts, in fact, better in many ways.bertNhttp://bertnphotoblog.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280893451653755086.post-44564512976873118262009-10-06T00:41:22.698-07:002009-10-06T00:41:22.698-07:00How old are these ships?

Harang ang prices nila. I ate at a nearby restaurant where the food is better and cheaper LOL.<br /><br />Reena, try fishing at least once and if the fishing is good - you might be hooked for life like I was. <br /><br />Missy, the participants in most festivals that I've been to dress in costumes appropriate to the occasion. Anu sa palagay mo, hindi kaya ako gulpihin nung asawa ko kung pumunta ako sa isang nudist festival? LOL.<br /><br />The Nomadic Pinoy, I share your fantasy - but mine would be a short voyage on a sailing ship in a stormy weather. I just wander how long I will last on board wihout losing my sanity LOL. <br /><br />Danny Villegas,dito sa amin maganda nga ang sikat ng araw pero three years na kaming nagtitiis ng drought and no relief in sight. Kung hindi sa tubig galing sa Northern California at Colorado River dead meat na kami LOL.bertNhttp://bertnphotoblog.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280893451653755086.post-37619825907203392322009-10-02T20:20:59.692-07:002009-10-02T20:20:59.692-07:00Hi Bert,
