My beautiful Philippines

I was so lucky that this December we make our way for a short trip to the Philippines. When we arrived, we stayed at a friend's brand new condo all to ourselves, in Makati .We left for Taal but stayed at the highlands to attend a ball during the weekend.We stayed at another friend's log cabin in Tagaytay Highlands .Later after the ball we went to stay with Ab Fab in her spectacular house in Makati.

The Filipinos are the most generous and hospitable people I have ever met in my life.

This picture below is the hardworking toll collector.There was a long queue at the booth so this man walked in the hot sun to collect toll from vehicle to vehicle.

We travelled quite a bit and on one of the hi ways,we passed a giant soft drink

factory.My girls were so thrilled thinking that we re going to drink all that , all the time in Peens(Philippines).

The firework in Taal (a volcano lake town south of Manila) The grand ball was held under the dark sky in the social court of Taal ,in front of its old Basilica.

I'm working on more photos to be uploaded soon.In the mean time ,come back soon ok!
