when cuzin ian texted: u don’t mind riding on a buggy? we were to see the mananguete the next morning at 630am. the reason i wanted to learn more about tuba is because it is used in a bigiw ritual. i texted back: sure. but i had no idea what a buggy was, is it a kalesa with horses? so we rode on the moon buggy as i called it on the way on bumpy, unpaved moon crater-like road to see the native coconut wine maker. on a side note, heard that tequila’s origin is from lambanog. waw! not sure if this is possible but wouldn’t it be something to have tuba-fueled buggies!
