And I so agree with you about the public use of hideous paint colors in Manila. Not every bridge needs to be as spectacular as the one I just posted, but neither should they rank as urban blight! It always disappoints me to see that when I know Pinoys are among the most creative and beauty appreciative in the world! <br /><br />Hilda, I was surprised too to learn that Cafe 1771 had been open for some months already. This Grand Launch last night was badly delayed then. It may need the exposure.

(not that it's bad esp for temporary shelter, but they're supposed to be taken care of by DSWD and not left alone.) <br /><br />i think it's also one of the reasons why the footbride in philcoa was renovated. they removed the roof to discourage vendors aside from the reasons i mentioned above.<br /><br />ayan, nobela na. haha. tc! happy weekend!Reenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03223488318835419576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999552601430694736.post-90535364185260752272010-07-18T07:59:08.644+08:002010-07-18T07:59:08.644+08:00What a challenge ... maybe they could allow primar...What a challenge ... maybe they could allow primary class students to colour it with their paintings.<br />Love the thought of yours, that bridges could rhyme. <br />Please have a great Sunday.<br /><br /><a href="http://tagein-tagaus-athen.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">daily athens </a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999552601430694736.post-57612975105997247092010-07-18T07:34:36.823+08:002010-07-18T07:34:36.823+08:00Interesting shot.
