Aerospace Museum



We discovered the Aerospace Museum! Cool place! It is actually the Philippine Air Force Museum that was moved to a new building. It is very near our house too-- what could be cooler than that?!

We like the military gadgets and gizmos on display. Uniforms, medals, weapons, ammunition, and even actual air craft and fighter planes. There is even the old Presidential Plane that was used by former President Marcos- with his personal touch evident as it is labeled 777 (Mom said that Pres. Marcos considered the number 7 his lucky number).

We highly recommend this museum to everyone especially to kids like us. It will surely be an educational experience! And oh- museum entrance fee is affordable -just P20!

Our Democratic World

A poem by Julio

Our beautiful day, which is today, is chosen to be so.
The people's government chose democracy that chooses peace.
We wouldn't live this far because we will die from war.
But democracy stops it from time to time.
It stops people to come and die.
It even stops horrible battle where people die and fear and rattle.
Good we have Democracy!

TF Visits Diego for the First Time

Diego is growing up and growing permanent teeth left and right -or maybe up and down. First baby tooth was out today (with the help of a dentist), and you know what that means-- yes! visit from the Tooth Fairy! Exciting time for Diego who is shown here with his new "smile" while wiggling off more baby teeth to make room for big boy teeth (translated as more treats from the Tooth Fairy). Congratulations Diego!
