Rizal Talisay Estate in Dapitan city.


















When I was in College, we had a subject on Dr. Jose Rizal (PI 100 or 101?). Our teacher on the first day told us that anyone who can tell in detail and supply answers to her questions questions about El Filibusterismo and Noli Me Tangere would be exempted from the class and be given the grade of 1.5

Nobody dared. I remember when I was younger I used to read some parts. Ibarra, Maria Clara, Padre Damaso etc etc but cant really tell in detail. Now every time I see anything about Rizal, I remember that day in a corner of a room I wish I better have read more seriously in high school. Nobody ever told me she would give me an A for narrating Nancy Drew or Sherlock Holmes.














































































































































If Rizal were alive today, I guess he would have a website, or a blog.

Talisay Estate would probably be wifi ready.

The streets of Dapitan are historically named. When we went there I saw one name I now forget but it made me wonder whether there was a Josephine Bracken or not. The tricycle driver said yes and we went to see it.
