I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PLACE AND I AM IN DA EVERY YEAR FOR CARNIVAL… I REALLY NEED TO RE-DISCOVER DA……
I’ve been to that spot several times but never knew that the name was “Basen Ma Joe”Lovely place for picnicing
You probably need more time, as a few more weeks, to visit all those places.
How can it be ‘re-discover’ if you have never heard of that place? awah
