Danao

Zeke's Boatyard.
 
After a four hour sail lasted twenty-four hours, I pulled into Zeke's yard in Danao.  What a place!  I will have to publish a picture because I am at a full loss of words to describe it.  Derelict ships being welded upon 24-7, literally, garbage heaps that drag into the water so that the high tide sweeps them away.  An outhouse over the water.  This is the Philippines.

Everyone is friendly.  Food is cheap.  I've already made this point and keep returning to it as the best compliment I can find for my experiences thus far.  I love cheap food.
 
Soon I will sail with a few friends down to Durmegettie, a pretty clean, quiet place.  I am quite excited.  Should be fun.  Sailing a big performance-type boat.  Must run.

That's her, her jewelry and her former boat. She is a land lover now as she has a child and had a rare form of cancer that could come back, and if it does, not much they can do. So she stays here for the doctors and so her son gets to know his only kin.
