The Dumagete, Cebu and Sequihor area was struck by a very strong earth quake. My heart and prayers go out to the warm accommodating people of that area. The tragic loss of life and the devastation to that beautiful area was widespread. I am posting pictures of our travel to the area 3 years ago. I am sure some of the places in this blog pictured have been damaged. It is a very special place on this planet. We spent 3 weeks there and it was one of the most enjoyable excursions I have had in my life.

| These lookout towers were built by many churches. The purpose as explained to me was to be able to see when Malay pirates would approach the city. Many of these structures were toppled in the earthquake. |
This is the cathedral in central Dumagete.
