It was a great night walk, and I would love to go there in the daytime soon. Yes, history is that Ferdinand Magellan, the great explorer, docked near Masao and had the first mass there, but the first mass was already debunked as having happened in Mazaua instead of in Limasawa. Nevertheless, he went there, and the balangay boat was the first ever boat used for trading in the city. That made the LGU claim when there was no Philippines, there was Butuan. 'Chicharron' with beer—a perfect pair.
You guys have such a rich maritime history and I know so many of our boats here have some filipino crew.
Now you have me looking about Butuan. And you now I will get you having a beer yet.
