It was not so long ago when I had shared my experienced at the World's Largest Floating Book Fair, the Logos Hope. The truth is, before James and I visited the huge ship, we were at Plaza Independencia taking some photos of the area. That was our first time together at the vicinity though we had been passing by it whenever we need to go to the port area. I was amazed because the area is quiet clean now and there were guards roaming around, blowing their whistles whenever somebody steps on the green Bermuda grasses.

There are a lot of changes I should say after the great renovation made a year ago, I can't really remember when the renovation had started and ended. All I know is, this place has a new look, a new face. More beautiful and more accommodating. Cleaner and greener. The area has been a place for events and gatherings as well, in fact, last year's Mass Wedding was held in there.

Warning: Photos overload!

Nostalgia – While looking upon the huge ship in front of me yesterday, I felt like I had been here before. Then I recalled MV Doulos. Oh yes, I had visited the previous ship which also had docked on the same port a couple of years ago, I guess that was last 2007 or 2008.

Glad I got to visit this before they travel again to another port in February 12; they had been in Cebu since January 11 though. So James and I were on our lines towards the ship. It was a very hot Sunday afternoon, glad I brought with me my purple umbrella which gave us shade throughout the 20-30 minute wait. The three foreign attendants in the entrance booth were also fast with their transactions. Entrance fee is Php 20 per head but those who are below 12 years old are free.
