The Philippine plate is a part of a subduction example. The pacific plate goes beneath the Philippine plate and is pulled down, forming the Mariana Trench located in eastern part of the world, by Australia.

The Mariana trench is the boundary line for two tectonic plates, pacific plate and Mariana plate (Philippines plate). It is the deepest part of the world's ocean. It is estimated to be about 35, 994 ft. deep and is about 2,550 km long. The trench forms island volcanoes and contains earthquake activity. There are quite a few cracks, as you can see the effects from some of the earthquakes and the damage. On August 17, 1976 in Mindanao, Philippines and earthquake and tidal wave hit causing 8,000 people to go dead or missing. Then the northern Philippines were ehit again on July 16, 1990 with a 7.7 earthquake, killing nearly 2,000.

I am just making a short stop to visit the Philippines. It's beautiful here and sunny and they have such great hospitality. It's so fun here and I've met a couple down here who are very nice and have been touring me around. I have been seeing great things here and such differences from Paris.

I stay in a lovely hotel: Century Park Hotel
