Nothing much really, just something that titillated my imaginative brain haha! I thought the sign meant “if you want sex & relationship, please ask for assistance”! On second thought, it really does mean so, right?
Yes, it does. Books on the topic that is, not the real makamundong pagnanasa!
This is at a bookstore am fond of visiting, am glad they have a branch in Cebu (Ayala Center)!
Who goes to the Sto. Nino Shrine without glancing at the People’s Center beside it? Oh well, during this re-visit, I did not only want to glance at it, I wanted to roam the place once again. Alright folks, for those not familiar with it, google will help a lot as there too, are a lot of descriptions and images of it. The People’s Center simultaneously sprouted with the Sto. Nino Shrine beside it. They were the twin attractions of the city during their heydays, until the Marcoses were ousted out of Malacañang – but that’s another topic you and I may want to talk about in the future. I am not here to discuss that it was another extravagant thing commissioned by Imelda. That topic is already way too worn out. My visit was more for the what it was, and what it is now . The People’s Center and Library 'building'/'structure' was inspired by ancient greek architecture. Nabasa ko lang yan dati! Ah, that one will probably be hard to change even until obli...
What place comes to mind when you hear the phrase "Pink Sisters"? Hmm, yes, Baguio, then Tagaytay - in that order, right?! But did you know there is also such a monastery in Cebu? Ah, well, not really Cebu City since it is already a few steps away from the boundary. It is in Mandaue City. Yep, that is the 'Adoration Convent of Divine Peace' - a monastery for nuns clad in pink habit, reason why its called 'pink-sisters' and I think you know all about that part, right?! Anyway, this convent (and chapel of course - that's my topic in the first place) sits in an urban neighborhood that is by the boundary of two barangays both named Banilad. Yep, Barangay Banilad, Cebu City and Barangay Banilad, Mandaue City! And that is along AS Fortuna Ave., - the famed strip where many notable restaurants and branches of virtually every bank in this country are located with or without ATMs! Oh yes, as of this writing, AS Fortuna has four hotels, two of them new - and am only...
Pronounce that as pam-bu-han. The letter J is hispanized and pronounced like H. From the previous town of San Roque to Pambujan is somewhere between 7 to 8 kilometers says the car's odometer. No wonder it took us only about 6 minutes, and on good roads with wonderful views! Tree-lined roads are always wonderful to look at, right? Especially that the trees here are already grown. That means these were planted years ago. Kudos to the people of San Roque and Pambujan. Alright.., my excitement grew as we approached this.., the Pambujan Bridge... If in the previous story I said everything seems to be either new or being repaired in San Roque, it continues all the way here. Just look at this bridge (the old/historical Pambujan Bridge), it's newly spruced up or still being "dressed". Even the electric post is also new! From the bridge is a nice view of the Pambujan River, made colorful by those boats... They are called "pambot" (from the English name: "...
