May 2017

Pictures taken with my canon camera. We went to visit "Bukit Kasih" or in English Love Mountain. It's one of the tourist's spots here in Sulawesi, Indonesia. People comes to pray and it's an active volcano, you can smell sulfur everywhere. Plus, the 1000 steps going to the top. I finished just 100 steps I think. It's so tiring.

Plus, picture taking with the owl. There's a lot of them roaming around you just need to ask them and pay a small amount of php50 or $1. Not bad!

The Fort Visit

 I'm not that into history but I had a chance to visit this ancient place in Philippine History, The Fort Santiago. According to my little research, It's the old barracks built by the Spaniards in 15th century, pretty old right? Also' it's were they captured hundreds of Filipinos and imprisoned them. Another fact is our national hero Jose Rizal was a prisoner here before. Amazing but I think it's too much already and I'm running out of information.

Well, the people there are friendly specially the guards. It doesn't mean I'm Filipino and I know everything about my country. Oh, shame on me!

So, here I got some pictures to share and what I love the most were the horses ad the man operating it. They're wearing a traditional costume called camiso de Chino, not sure really. hahaha.

Butterfly Garden

Butterfly garden is Located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There are many different kinds of butterflies, different in colors and different in sizes. Butterfly garden is not free and they will charge RM20 for adults and RM15 for children. The place is not so big but it's fine since the price is cheap. Here are some live butterflies that I captured during my visit.

I was welcomed by a pretty butterfly.

Manado Military Exhibit

Today, I went to mall for shopping and I found out that there' s a Military Exhibit near the mall so I decided to have fun and took many pictures with them. I really enjoyed it because it's my first time to experience that kind of event. I really appreciate the armies because they're all nice and they let everybody to take pictures with their equipment and also with them.

 Sir yes Sir I'm on service Sir!

 This man, he is ready to fight. I like it so much that they took effort for putting this paint on their faces just to entertain people. Imagine how hot there this afternoon and they sacrificed themselves for the people.

Jalan Jalan di Bitung

Bitung is a city on the northern coast of the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. It is in the province of North Sulawesi, and faces Lembeh Island. 
Since we live in Manado City, it's a 1 hour drive going to the City of Bitung.
We went there to visit the Filipino fishermen. 

Papa together with some locals.

These are some Filipinos there. They gonna sail in the morning and stay in the sea for 20 days or more. If they can't catch tuna fish they won't be paid.

After that we went to the main road to wait for an Angkot ( a public transportation).

While we are waiting I took pictures with some of the street vendors.

Bakso or baso is Indonesian meatball or meat paste made from beef surimi and is similar in texture to the Chinese beef ball, fish ball, or pork ball.
