Our Beloved Capul


Los Capuleños:

These were pictures I took during my latest visit to our hometown. Most were captured when we had the visita iglesia around the entire island.

My apologies if there are only a few. I was just using my phone camera. No budget for a digital camera yet. Donations are however welcome. :-)

Now let's have a guessing game again. Can you identify all the places featured here? Sige nga, dare.

Si Michelle Hilario-Jao ang bahala sa prize.

This was one of the entries for the school-based category. Coming from the Landusan National High School, the team was composed mainly of boys. Coached by Mr. Oniel Pelito, they wore coconut leaves woven like skirts as they simulated the tuba-gatherers. This group proved to be the most colorful and playful of the lot.
