Bruce Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 7107 could be true. High tide or low tide?Right! I have always seen 7000+ islands, but never the same exact number in print. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dzighnman Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 7107 could be true. High tide or low tide?I had heard the same as this entry in answer.com:"During high tide, there are only 7,100 islands. But during low tide,7 more islands are visible which means there are 7107 islands."I want to find one of those seven...sounds like an adventure. :hystery: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volstateguy Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 It's a nice video, but I don't think it portrays Filipino culture. Where are the jeepneys, balut carts and karaoke machines? When I travel to a country or location I want to experience their culture, otherwise you aren't getting a full experience IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
