Filipina Marina “Mars” Salandanan, 83, literally took a leap on her birthday last month, when she went parasailing while on a Princess cruise in Mexico.
Salandanan, widow of a private company’s pilot who died in a plane crash in 1963, is a resident of San Francisco, California.
She has five daughters and a son.

One of her daughters, Pinky Quispel-Salandanan, a long-time resident in the Netherlands, e-mailed these pictures and article to Munting Nayon News Magazine in the Philippines.
With 18 grandchildren, the parasailing widow will be having her first great-grandchild from her eldest granddaughter, come spring 2010. – Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network
