ResToeRun in Robinsons


          Sunday is a family day, it's the day for each members in the family to have bonding moments. I had captured the bigger picture in Robinsons Place Manila, better known as Robinsons Ermita last 23rd of September 2012. A ResToeRun Activity was held, encouraging the family to join the event. The main mechanic is to build or create an animal out of shoes piled on the floor. As an audience, I enjoyed watching the thrill of excitement of the participants. 









          


In the Heart of Manila


          Our beloved national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal monument can be found in the heart of Manila, near Roxas Boulevard and a walking distance to old US Embassy. It is really a high time for me,  to sight up close the statue in Luneta Park. For the past years, studying his famous books in schools: "Noli Me Tangere " and "El Filibusterismo" were so worth to read every text details in chapters, visualizing the time of Spanish Regime.

Historical Travel in Intramuros

          A weekend get away to have a time travel in Intramuros Manila, last 15th of September 2012. My friends and I witnessed the remnants of the past era in the Philippines. The time of walking around Intramuros is worth, paying an affordable entrance fee of Php 50.00 ($1.18) for children and students and Php 75.00 ($1.77) for adults. Let me show you, the highlights of heritage in Intraumuros Manila.
