#BangonMadridejos

Video available! Click below!

A little background on Madridejos, It's the last/end part of Bantayan Island (located at the Northern Part of Cebu). My dad grew up in that area and I believe lived a great childhood. When they get together with his high school friends and remember all the times they had during 'those days', they would share a laugh or two. I'm happy of how my dad was raised. I don't really know what experiences made him into the corny-fun dad he is today, but I'm pretty sure the town had something to do with it.

Yolanda badly hit that area on November 8, 2013. Around 90% of the structures in Bantayan were destroyed. I must commend the rapid help that reached them the days after the storm, and the organizations like Bangon Madridejos (a page in facebook) that constantly updates whatever was happening over there.
