Quezon (October 6, 2007)

Jelmar and I woke up early to go to market. It was on the news two months ago that the public market of Lopez Quezon was destroyed by fire. Jelmar was curious to see the new market, so he suggested to his mother that we will be the one to buy the food for that day.

Well, the market is now organized compared to last time we saw it (last year). We went home with one kilo of tilapia, one kilo of bangus, and some vegetables.

At around 2pm, her cousin Angel (a teacher) came and we had some chat and around 3pm, Jelmar ask if we can go to the lot that she had just bought. Jelmar took some photos of the place. We also learned from Ate Vangie (mother of Angel) that the nearby lot was bought by her second child Ayi (who is also a teacher-in Don Bosco Makati). I played Chinese checkers with Alham (younger brother of Angel), whom I beat in that game.

After having a snack (maruya), we decided to visit the school nearby where Jelmar spent his elementary days. We took some photos and off we go to the nearby school few blocks away where Jelmar, Clare, Angel spent high school (Alham is 1^st year in that same school). We also took some photos of the place.

Our last spot is the oval, where we saw some students playing. The children seeing the oval, got excited and decided to run. We are too busy to notice that Adrian was carried away and run with his cousins. It caught my attention only when they are already in the half of the oval. We were worried if he can make it, it is good that Alham did not left him, he guided Adrian until they finished circling the oval.
