I began to relax at first, as I thought the bus driver was bound to take it easy, seeing as the weather had really been rainy and visibility due to fog was very low. Boy was I mistaken. Instead the driver drove that bus, as if he was "Micheal Shoemaker" hotting up for pol position in a ...

Although I am really getting annoyed at the great numbers of people who say "Hi Joe" to me, in this context I turned and waived, or sometimes said 'hello' back, but without actually stopping.

Five ...

... My other niece's horse had to stop to make a poop brake. It must be nice being an animal in a way. If you need to use the bathroom, can do that where ever you want! The Mansion is also there near Wright Park. It has been used as a vacation home for Filipino Presidents since 1947. You used to be able to go up to The Masion, but now you can only go as far as the gate.

Smiling because I was amongst family once again and sighing because I barely see them except for certain occasions!

When the war began they were forced to leave the property and return to their rural communities. Sadly, Lola's father was captured by the Japanese and eventually died in one of their prisons. As she was telling me many of these stores there were large ...

... MC for the event, which was fun but also a bit hectic. In classic Filipino style the speakers and schedule of the events were constantly changing. But as I have learned time and time again these last few months, you put a smile on and roll with the punches. It was very special to hear from our new Country Director Karl Beck. He arrived in country shortly after we did, so he is learning right along with our batch. His speech was very powerful as he ...
