I love the view of Manila bay from Sofitel especially at the wee hours of morning.
I was planning to meet you up and other foodie blogging friends but an expected circumstance turned up (death), so I had to adjust :( Ayun naubusan ng time....di bale next time!!! I wil contact you earlier pa lang ;-)
I like the warm orange and red glows a lot... must make the room very romantic. But from a designer's point of view... what is it? Yes, I know, floor lamps... but in the style of what? Has an exotic India feel...? And even after "embiggening" (as Jacob would say), I can't make out the materials beyond the metal work... Okay, I'm weird... ;-)
The Sofitel is the gift that keeps on giving. This is another beauty. I travel quite a bit but I haven't stayed in a Sofitel yet. Hopefully someday I will.
Metro Manila is the largest urban center in the Philippines, composed of seventeen cities and municipalities with about twelve million people. Though I've lived here all my life, I have really just been to a few areas of its teeming 638 square kilometers. This is a photo blog of the Manila that I experience everyday and, occasionally, of other places we go to. I hope you like my Manila. Despite its many flaws, I do.

Be nice please!
All the photos in this blog were taken either by me or my husband. I can't really stop you from using any of these on your own blog or website, but do please acknowledge the source of the image and let me know by leaving a comment or emailing me at happyinmanila2008 at yahoo dot com, and sending me the url of your site. I'd really appreciate it.
Nothing makes me happier than staying at home, curled up in bed with a good book or movie, or puttering around the house, but I can do so only for a few hours every week because I have a full-time, Monday to Saturday job.
I used to use our Canon PowerShot A610 but I find it too bulky to carry in my purse everyday. So in September 2008, I finally got an itsy-bitsy Canon Ixus 80 IS (PowerShot SD1100 IS) which I now bring everywhere. I love it!

The Sofitel is the gift that keeps on giving. This is another beauty. I travel quite a bit but I haven't stayed in a Sofitel yet. Hopefully someday I will.
Those are really pretty & I see why you chose the title name, goes perfectly w/ these lamps and the colors of the shot!
Nice! I love the lighting. I wish we had something like those around our house :)
Fantastic composition!
Good to see the Seven Sins is still going strong. I seem to remember it from previous entries
