boat boys

I have something of a sniffle and have been sneezing rather a lot. I hence need somebody to refer to me as “petal”. As this has not happened, I’ll merely post a series of photos taken as BoSW, E, B, K, D and I left Sabang last Saturday. Local boys climb all over the big outriggers before they set sail. The kids ask passengers to throw coins in the water, which they dive in and collect. Their ability to find the coins is impressive. It doesn’t really seem like begging – they don’t seem too fussed if you don’t throw money – they just keep mucking around, doing backflips off the boat.
