To Travel Spain by The Galeón Andalucía Sevilla

June 15, 2011

Could you still remember the Galeón Andalucía Sevilla that has visited Cebu City some months last year, 2010? Oh yeah, that’s it -the replica of the one of the oldest Spanish galeóns which traveled from Spain to Philippines for trading goods. I just suddenly  remembered about the galeón and our talks with my classmate, Jay, who was my companion when I went and personally took photos of me and the galeón. I told her that I want to go to Spain not by plane but by the galeón.

Yeah! I told her that, no jokes! I was just very curious how the inside of the galeóns looking like and the feeling of traveling with the pirates perhaps. Haha. Ain’t it exciting? Just think of a hunk pirate like Johnny Depp traveling with you from the Philippines to Spain? Oh lala.. I might not be taking off from the galeón then! LOL! Smiley

Anyway, I am re-posting here some of my photos taken with the galeón.

Who’d like To Travel Spain by The Galeón Andalucía Sevilla with me? Smiley

  3. The Travel Diva on June 15, 2011 at 1:43 am

    That’s an interesting thought and I would love to do that… but I get motion sickness, sis. So I guess traveling to Spain by Galeon is not for me.

    I would love to fly to Spain, though… Hope someday, I can.

    Thanks for joining Tuesday Travels. Hope to see you again next week!

    • gagay on June 15, 2011 at 10:21 pm

    Yey! Nice one gay! I just watched The Pirates of the Caribbean recently and the galeon on ur pics looks alike like it! I wouldnt mind travelling in the galeon if a hunk like Johnny Depp will b with me too! Truly, Cebu holds most of the exiting historic events like this galeon. :)

    • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 10:01 am

      TAMA TAMA! mao jud ai,,basa mag-galeon ko forever basta naay hunk pirate kauban naku.LOL!

  23. Sheryl of georyl.com on June 18, 2011 at 8:11 am

    our family traveled to spain from morocco last year. it reminds me a lot of RORO in the Philippines because we brought our car and pagdating sa port, ipinasok din ang kotse sa baba then umakyat kami sa taas ng barko. then, pagdating sa spain, drive, drive din kami… and vise versa….

    • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 9:44 am

      wow! ang galing nmn..i only experienced once lng talaga yang magsakay ng roro with car..takot kasi si mama..hehehe..pero inde int’l..hehehe..cebu-masbate lng..malapit nga lng yun pero nerve cracking for my mom..hehehe..LOL! how much more if spain?haha!

  24. Techie She on June 18, 2011 at 8:13 am

    I can’t imagine traveling from Philippines to Spain on a ship. How long will it take? Probably months??? I’ll probably be bored to death unless of course, there’s internet. wink!

    • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 9:59 am

      me? i wouldn’t get bored techie she..for as long as there are hunky pirates..LOL!

  25. pie on June 18, 2011 at 9:41 am

  30. Mel Cole on June 18, 2011 at 11:47 am

    Very nice tall ship, gagay. :) I was able to encounter one here but not that ship. Aren’t they beautiful? Interesting structure I say, it must be hard for such ship to travel in the oceans that depends where the wind goes and not by gasoline…Nice pictures you got here.

    • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 12:03 pm

      thanks ate mel and you liked my pic here..

  31. Baguio Girl on June 18, 2011 at 12:33 pm

  32. Georiet P. Quinones on June 18, 2011 at 12:43 pm

    oh, I’d love to travel too.. can i go with you, please :D
    ..and take note travelling in the galeon together with you is absolutely exciting. lol

    • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 12:46 pm

      it would be much exciting if Johnny Depp will be with us! waaaaaah! **giggles**

      • Georiet P. Quinones on June 18, 2011 at 12:55 pm

        same here..hahahaha.. **giggles* but it would be most exciting if M is with you and ill just be your “yaya” until we could get to every other other place we would like to go. waaahh! so romantic.. :D

        • gagay on June 18, 2011 at 12:58 pm

          M will be with me? and yours will be Johnny Depp? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…. that would be VERY UNFAIR! hmpppp! we’ll go there ONLY YOU AND I plus the PIRATE – Johnny Depp! hahaha!

  33. Nin on June 18, 2011 at 2:26 pm

    Too bad I missed the Andalucia when it docked at the local pier (just a few kilometers from our house). But I’ve heard a lot from friends and the people I’ve followed in Twitter. It must be so expensive trying to maintain and preserve a moving artifact. But the real deal about these ships is how you can see the way of living during those times through the furnitures, amphora and the ship’s design itself. I have missed a once-in-a-lifetime chance by not seeing it though. Nice post. :)

  34. Jade on June 18, 2011 at 3:06 pm

    It would be certainly a cool way to go to Spain with the Galeon especially if Johnny Depp would be there to keep you company :P

    • gagay on June 19, 2011 at 9:09 am

      hehehe..yeah, so true ate jade! :D

  35. Liz on June 18, 2011 at 11:02 pm

    I also dream of traveling to Spain. I hope someday I can visit. :)

    Kisses and hugs GG!

    • gagay on June 19, 2011 at 9:06 am

      thanks Ate Liz!

  36. liz on June 19, 2011 at 3:49 am

    Hey hey…
    such a good idea! might need to add some interesting place on my list like what you have mentioned. SPAIN with Galeon ship!

  37. Pearl on June 19, 2011 at 4:06 pm

    Never been in Cebu and haven’t seen the galeon…but it’s awesome to travel in Spain with you gay in Galeón Andalucía Sevilla.! Let’s Go!!!! Vámonos!!!

  38. Ray Ray on June 19, 2011 at 5:27 pm

    I wouldn’t want to travel with Johnny Depp, just cause he’s not one of my fav’s…but it would be cool to travel on The Galeón Andalucía Sevilla or any replica ship. Just to see how they did things back then and what they went through. I have been on a couple other replica ships that traveled to the US. Spain is a beautiful place…so hope you get the chance to go there one day by plane or ship!

  39. Carlota on June 20, 2011 at 12:23 am

    Please take me with you. I’m sure that was awesome to see.

  40. bingkaycoy on June 20, 2011 at 5:16 am

    The thing is, that would be exciting. An experience to view the world before. But Johnny Depp is not from Spain :-) Hehehe! I’d rather have my husband enjoy the trip with me.

    I wanna ride that someday!

  45. Ernhez Romero on June 20, 2011 at 10:17 pm

    Wow, I live to ride the Galleon from Philippines to Spain! It’s going to be cool just like Captain Jack Sparrow.

    Even though I didn’t see the Galleon once it docked here in Cebu, but someday I’ll see it and ride on it…someday!

  46. David Funk on June 25, 2011 at 2:26 am

    Hi GG!

    Sorry it took so long to comment here. It’s been a very hectic last few weeks for me.

    Anyway, who wouldn’t want to go on cruise with YOU! Haha. I’ve never been to Europe, so this would be a great way to do that by galeon.

    See ya later sweetie!
