From Las Vegas, NV to Manila, Philippines

It was a long, tedious trip from Las Vegas, NV. American Airlines took me to Los Angeles, then Asiana Airlines took me from LAX to Seoul, Korea, finally to Manila, Philippines.

The ASIANA AIRLINES was a peaceful ride, occasionally bumpy due to air packets. Food served during the flight was delicious. compensatory to the price of my ticket. The flight attendants were tall, slim, and pretty Korean ladies. They were all warm, and friendly.

As the plane descended onto the runway, I prepared myself to land once again on Philippine soil which I did six years ago (2007). It was a feeling of mixed emotion: happiness, excitement, and scary thoughts, nervousness because of negative things/news about everything.

As I picked my checked-in luggages, and trollied my carry-on to the arrival area, my daughter-in-law Johanne  met me. She took me to Ohmar's condo in Makati and visit with the whole family.

I have neglected this blog for quite sometime. I intend to write again and update my family and friends about myself and the things happening around me. At this time, I am in Proctor, MN visiting my daughter, Marie and her growing family. The new addition is Aiden William Anderson who was born on January 19, 2013. He is my second grandchild and the first boy from her and Ryan.

HAPPY DAYS IN PROCTOR & DULUTH, MN

VACATION FUN

I HAD VACATION FROM JULY 3, 2012 TO AUGUST 29, 2012. THE FIRST 17 DAYS WERE SPENT IN DENVER, COLORADO AND THE REMAINING 38 DAYS WERE SPENT IN PROCTOR & DULUTH, MN. I WAS OUT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA FOR 55 DAYS. THAT WAS INDEED A LONG TIME, THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I WAS AWAY THAT LONG FROM MY HOME BASE.

MY EVERYDAY ACTIVITIES WERE MOSTLY POSTED IN MY FACEBOOK PAGE. THEY INCLUDED NOTES AND PICTURES. I AM POSTING SOME OF THE BEST PICTURES I HAD AND LABEL EACH ONE AS I REMEMBER THEM.
