Stormy weather
This brings up too many memories of “voyage of the seven days” from the island to mainland when I was growing up in the Philippines. Back and forth, can’t remember how many times. And the stormy weather is not good for your stomach, I must say. As a little girl, it was fun to ride the waves.
We lived in one of the 7001 islands, Davao City, and the mainland is Manila City. In order for the older siblings to have higher education, they have to be shipped out to Mainland. Sometimes, I go with them, sometimes I stayed with Mother in the Island.
The rest is history.
May I be excused in reading Wikipedia. I’d rather be with Rod Stewart.
This is in response to Daily Prompt: Shipwrecked. Come and join us, it’s fun.
I adored Rod Stewart growing up…I even pretended at one point he was mine!! …Hugs Paula xx
Rod, isn’t he’s the greatest? 😀
I was avoiding this prompt but after looking at your post, I realize this not some university, rule driven exercise but it is simply to inspire an article or post-thanks
Hi Ho, think of it as a game and bring it out to life. It’s very creative. Come and Join us, OK. 😀

Now, it’s clear… You’re a Davaoena. A Davao-born. Glad to know you came from my hometown. Truly a kababayan.
Hi Mr.Ferdi, yes, I was born at Matina landmark ICC (school). Indeed.
“finally a connection to where I came from” — this was your first comment to my blog; and I can’t forget it. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Cat is out of the bag 😀
Mr. J. Your new post nightmare at sea, the link is broken.
Yes, I pulled it out. Not substantial. Just a description of my fears while at my first sea voyage going to Manila.
