The Philippines - random shots
Some photos fr my dad’s stash during his short stint back in Sg… Something to tantalise myself

This is where he lives… so shiok. I love living in hotels! haha… This one’s called Vivere Suites, quite the posh hotel I heard… It’s in Alabang, a rather big town about 1-2hours drive from Manila. It’s half an hour by car from Cabayao, that’s where the light industry park is… A bit like our science park here.

ROOFTOP POOL!!! So nice rite! Can’t wait to go check it out!

That’s one of the eating/bar places downtown… It has a rather Spanish feel around the place, afterall, the Philippines was once a Spanish colony rite? (I hope I didn’t screw up history.)

On one of the side trips my father took to the countryside… This was one of the grocery shopping areas there… It’s like pineapple heaven there!

Some of the typical countryside… I’m looking forward to lots of wonderful, nice trekking to be done! Looking for people who love to trek/walk to go too!

Apparently, my father claims this is Marcos’ house, I think it’s more like his ’summer’/'winter’ house… sort of a respite in the countryside…

I’ve got far nicer pictures than this one, but most of them have got my father’s corny poses in there, so he forbade me from posting them up here. :( Anyway, that lump in the middle is supposed to be one of the many extinct volcanoes there… We could make a day trip to those ‘volcano-islands’, I hope to check out one of those dormant ones… Go see the crater. I shall invite my enemies along with me. Muahahaha…

Another day trip to a town… More like a dead town, cuz it’s filled with places like these… and guess who lives within? DEAD PEOPLE! CORPSES! These are mausoleums belonging to the really rich people. Their tomb far surpasses the size and state of the commonfolk.
Yay….
and now back to mugging. SIGH!
