Here is a fun video we put together from our day at the ostrich farm. This was the first place we visited after arriving in Port Barton, marking the beginning of our trip. Hope you'll find it as amusing as we do!

Ever watch The Swiss Family Robinson and was curious to see how an ostrich runs in real life? Well in San Vicente, you might just get the opportunity to if you just ask Andy. Andy Caratao is the caretaker at the local Ostrich Farm and knows how to get these birds into action. Mysterious and almost mythical, ostriches are a fascinating paradox to witness, with their long limbs, tall stature, and large, feathery bodies. When we first arrived, we visited the Brooder House, home of the 1 month old baby ostrich chicks. What an adorable sight! The chicks have ample room to run around and interact with us as we were introduced into their playpen. It was an experience we will never forget! Afterwards we ventured on to feed the adult ostriches and watched how these birds of a very peculiar feather run at astonishing speeds. Check out the Ostrich Farm when you're in San Vicente, and it will be a highly entertaining afternoon, spend it with the largest and possibly most amusing birds on the planet!
