Toils #7

This bangkero (boatman) transports people from one side of the river to the other.  This trade has been going on since I was in elementary (that's just how far back I know).  Back in those days, it was just piso (one peso) for every tawid (cross) per person.  Nowadays, I wonder how it costs.  And to top it all, it seems that it is also operates at night because there is a light installation along the stairs.  To make it easier for the boatman to cross the river, he installed a rope so that he doesn't need to paddle anymore.
