Default Prolonging the native culture

These are some pictures I took when I went to Baguio City. The native people there are called Igorots and some of them still wear their indegenous clothes. Actually I had to pay them first before they allowed me to take their photos haha..

I know St. Bernards are not native dogs, but apparently, the people in Baguio are also extending their culture to them. Bethoven of the Philippines hehe..

Pjflan: they really make something from their costumes since a lot of tourist would pay them in exchange for a photograph. But in fairness to them, they don't charge a lot haha.

Fred, Sheriliz, Tycooder, Jack: Thank you for your wonderful comments. The dogs really looked so cool when I saw them. And just to let you know, you have to pay their handlers too for the photograph!!! haha.
