Some Dapitan Photos
Posted by on June 8, 2009
I am currently here in Dipolog City, the capital of Zamboanga del Norte of fondly called Zanorte by the locals. Yesterday early morning the skies of Zanorte were all covered with clouds until it started to rain. But just before the Streetdance Competition of the Hudyaka Zanorte Festival started, the heavy rains stopped only to continue late in the afternoon.
I like the sunshiny weather here in Zanorte today. I went to the Jose Rizal Shrine in Dapitan earlier and I love the site. One can feel how our national hero spent four years of his life, educating young kids. I also dropped by the St. James church located at the Dapitan Plaza area.
From there, I took a bus which brought me here in Dipolog. I have yet to explore this great city and buy some pasalubong stuffs later. I will visit the Holy Rosary Cathedral later and check out its altar where it is said that Jose Rizal himself made the design.
More photos and stories when I return to Manila!
Simply captivating!
