This slide show feature photos I took during my last Balikbayan trip last Christmas, 2002.

My wife's aunt works at the Manila Penn in Makati so she was able to secure for us a room with really cheap prices. We even paid in pesos not in dollars..Some shots were taken in the lobby..

Some more photos were taken at Nympha Salom's house in Urdaneta Village, just a stone's throw away from the Penn. She owns that life size ( almost ) Manger which rests atop of their stairs. We had a photo with her sisters Alejandra and Epifania.

Susan D. Santos joined us in some shots at the Penn inside our suite.

The slide show closed with my delivering a talk at the party hosted by the Delmendo Cable Company..

Visiting our country is easier on December because the weather is very comfortable. The hitch on the other hand are the exobirant ticket prices, since Christmas is a peak season and it seems every Filipino likes to be home for Christmas---#
