manila-ocean-park

I just got off the phone with a dozen of things swimming inside my head, like the Colonix review I still have to check. My cousin from London is in town with her two little girls and will stay until the second week of August. There is a lot of catching up to do from the time I left London in 2007. I certainly did miss on Clara’s “walk” years.

Here’s what I think a grand idea to entertain these pretty girls this weekend without leaving the metro:

1. Take them to Manila Ocean Park in the morning.
2. Treat the girls out to lunch at CPK Greenbelt 5. Aside from kids pizza, pasta and sundae, they will enjoy the CPKids activity book.
3. Timezone.
4. Mall shows for kids. I hope there’s one.
5. Buy them something. I just don’t know what.

Any suggestions?

Ortigas building

Certain parts of India, China and Japan experienced daytime darkness when the longest solar eclipse of the century took place yesterday. I wasn’t aware of this news that people from all over flocked to these eclipse hotspots, as if moving companies San Francisco bay area started teleporting them to hotel rooftops. I only got an SMS reminder from a co-worker at around 9AM, just in time for the once-in-a-blue-moon phenomenon.

Well, it did not go that dark in Manila. I almost broke my neck from trying to get a clear view from inside the vehicle that took me to Ortigas. It was a partial solar eclipse that lasted until around 11AM. That’s what the witnesses said.

And the only souvenir I got from the experience was this photo of the building I took with my handy digicam. It was bright and sunny down here.
