Jeepney

Today we went to Siquijor town to buy food for a barbecue on the beach tomorrow. While we were there we saw this Jeepney.

Jeepneys are the most popular means of public transport in the Philippines. They were originally made from US military jeeps left over from World War two and are known for their flamboyant decoration and crowded seating.

If you visit places like Manila you will see just hundreds and hundreds of them. You do not see many on Siquijor. Motorbike and trike are the main modes of transport on Siquijor.
