While I was waiting for the first bus a jeepeny came passed. A jeepeny is a jeep that has been modified to hold 15 or so people in the back on 2 long benches. I have some pictures on my camera, so when I find an Internet cafe I will post one.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Since the jeepeny was going in the right direction, I got on and paid. It made it a grand total of 600 metres before it broke down! They left me on the side of the road (with the other passengers) with a refund. I’m told by the passengers that this is a fairly common occurrence.<\/div>\n

Shortly after that, a real bus passed and I got on. There were maybe 50 seart on board and 100 people riding. Some were seated, some were standing, and some were holding onto the outside. I elected to stand on the inside of the bus. Otherwise it was a fairly uneventful one hour journey. I wanted to take a picture but I had to choose between balancing on the bus and getting my camera.<\/div>\n

The ferry took about 3 hours, but yielded good views of Camiguin.<\/div>\n

As you can see, the “island made of fire” is a pretty good description. It has several active volcanos, although it has been a long time since a major eruption.<\/div>\n

I have hired a guide for tomorrow to hike to the highest peak, about 1300 metres above sea level.<\/div>\n
