Very cool acquisition. I love the street scene in the Philippines. The jeepneys, carcars, tuk tuks , everymanner of wheeled vehicle. There's many food vendors that use tricycle frames. Balut anyone?









What'cha gonna do with it. Talk about your possibilities...

Hey Rory,

What's her thoughts on Balut today? Is there any middle ground, or is it strictly love it or hate it? Way too long since my last visit over there....

She would not eat one now. She said the trick is to let them go down quick. Don't chew. LOL
Her Mom fixes some Milk Fish now and then and eats the eyes out of it.  Her Mom denies doing it though.
