It was sad knowing that our study tour in Cambridge is over. No more stagecoach, cereals and toasts, cold English weather, sidetrip tours, broadway musicals, history and English classes, etc. We arrived Manila at 6.00 pm from the Hong Kong Airport. As we stepped onto the grounds of Manila's NAIA ai…

This weekend we had a chance to visit the Mall of Asia.  Holy Crap.  That place is huge.  I believe it took us about 2 hours to go from one side of the mall to the other stopping only occassionally.  This mall has everything in it that you could ever imagine including an ice ska…

The reviews of those who'd taken the tour were positive, I thought I'd give it a try once I get back to the Philippines for the holidays. Despite the fact that I had only a week to s…

7:00 A.M, cold, deserted, 2 backpacks outside NAIA Terminal 3.  Chie with her Marlboro Red; I’m with my baby Nikon.  Thirty minutes later, we went inside.  It was chaos -- passengers running around, luggage everywhere, kid crying, calls for delayed flights and some canceled, lo…

Nastassja, (tashgorgeous) had a birthday on Aug 17th and I looked at her profile photo and thought, I could give her a gift by changing her shot. I think I may have been hungry too because the pizza in front of her looked so good.  I downloaded the shot and did a little lighting and color chan…

We arrived Manila one day late because our original flight from Busuanga was cancelled. Waiting all day at the airport, and finally ��" cancelled. Great! But the next day the weather was better and we finally made it out of Coron. I’ve been to Manila several times before, but never seen much …
