back from manila

July 14th, 2006

IMG_2298We enjoyed every minute of our vacation in Manila, getting to see our families and catching up with some friends kahit na super singit na lang sa mga schedules. Our entire trip was mostly about the wedding as BIL & SIL asked us to help coordinate on the day, mas na-stress pa nga ako with their wedding than when I was planning mine :p. Kami ni Ton lang ata ang super harrased, hahaha. Anyways, everyone enjoyed the wedding and despite it not being that “organized”, our families we’re both happy with the whole celebration. E was super cute and pogi in his little barong and Ichi and I were really proud and happy that he walked the aisle, nagsusumpong nga nung una but when Ichi saw that he was looking at Karl (the ring bearer) walk, he put E down and E walked as well. It’s just a pity that we don’t have that many pictures as Ichi and I were both very busy at the wedding.

Movie time
I was deadset on watching some movies while back home (syempre chance ko ng makanood dahil the grandparents were more than willing to babysit) so I got my brother to take me to watch The Lake House starring Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves, I watched the movie not only because I like Sandra but also because I loved the Korean movie, Il Mare which this movie is a remake of. Syempre we also made sure that we got to watch the highly anticipated Superman Returns which I also hope to catch again on IMAX.

E’s first carousel ride
DSC00159Last June 24, after we picked up Ichi at the airport we went to the nearby SM City Clark and chanced upon a carousel in the middle of the mall. E was happily pointing at ride that we decided to let him try it. Here’s a pic of father and son on it.

HEAT
Ever since I read Lori’s post on HEAT (Edsa Shangri-la’s newest restaurant), I made sure that during our trip home we would try it out. So two Mondays ago off we went to Edsa Shang for a buffet lunch. I was pleasantly surprised that the place was almost full despite it being a Monday and lunch at that. The food was delicious, you will really want to try everything that they have to offer. The dessert bar was something that I was really looking forward to as I love sweets and it definitely didn’t disappoint. The buffet is definitely worth splurging on.
