San Isidro, Duero, Bohol is now on Blogger map

San Isidro is one of the barangays in the municipality of Duero, Bohol where majority of the folks earn a living by farming. This place lies amidst the verdant hills of barangays Cansuhay and Mambool.

The barangay has a patron saint, San Isidro Labrador, and holds its annual feast on the 2nd week of May. This year, it falls on the 14th of May. It is also at this time of the year when San Isidro natives who have gone to other places travel back to visit love ones, while others mainly to celebrate this festivity. It is almost as if a grand reunion is being held.

Wow! Jagna Municipal Office is Wifi connected

Yes, people. This town has it! So anyone who has Wifi ready laptops or PDAs may now surf the net without a fee simply by sitting around the area.

It has pretty excellent reception. Even much better than some wifi hotspots in the Greater manila area. More so, covered benches abound in the area since a tennis court sits right beside the municipal building. And, unlike in Manila, laptop snatchers are yet to be heard in these parts.

This is really good news. I was in an urgent need to be online due to changes in my travel schedules, and to my surprise, I learned about this in-time news.

What a relief for people who can't survive a day without being online. Wow! Very good news indeed.
