Snippets of my first week in Manila

Hello Manila..

I’m not a morning person and rarely catch the sunrise. But during my first week in Makati, staying at my sister’s place, sunrise found me instead … gently spilling across my face and waking me up each morning.

The food was so good — but wow, the sweet stuff! Filipino food really loves its sugar, and I definitely gave in to my cravings more than I should have.

Then it was our Golden High School Reunion, the main reason for going back home. I haven’t seen these ladies since I left High School and some even more.

Then I caught up with family and friends… with some who are not feeling so well
