Hi Everyone,
 
It was bright and sunny so I put aside boat tasks and just went for a walk.  I was looking for a drug store for more first aid supplies and also veggies for dinner.  But mainly I wanted some exercise so went out to look around Olongapo City.  I still don’t know much of its history, but the name has something to do with the severed head of a brave old man standing up against corrupt authorities.  Tagalog is the official language of the Philippines but most people speak English too.  Lucky for us.
 
When I was in China I tried to be objective in my observations.  The Chinese, oddly after several months of entires, decided I wasn’t portraying things in the way they might wish so stopped www.oddgamer.info from being available in China.  I’ve decided to be a bit more circumspect in my writing and just show lots of photos.  I will photograph what I see and you can come to your own conclusions.  Obviously I will photograph what appeals to me; but also what will help you share our experiences.  Like every other country in the world there is wealth and poverty and I’ll try to show both.  When I know interesting facts to share, I will.  We’ll see how it goes.
