We walked to Pier 13, Manila Bay last thursday from the College of Arts and Sciences (Just imagine how my feet ached. That port is opposite Intramuros.), and went aboard the ship MV Esperanza. It's currently in the Philippines to restore some of our rivers and seas and to solicit support (it's in Guimaras right now, I think the ship will be leaving the country this September/October).

I was there.

It's one of the Greenpeace ships. Greenpeace. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? It's an international organization taking steps to defend our oceans (including the wildlife in it). You might have watched its ad/saw its logo while watching MTV, they're endorsing the organization.

(sigh)Being in that ship brought back memories of first and only time I saw dolphins. No, not in Subic or in any dolphin show. I saw them in the wild, freely jumping and gliding a few inches beneath the water parallel to the direction of the ship I rode back from our Puerto Galera vacation. They were one of the most beautiful creatures I've ever seen. You, too, will think that way when/after you've seen them the way I did.

I wear my all-white blouse & slacks uniform and nameplate every thursday. Some of the photos taken last thursday:
