Patriotic

The tiny bamboo snack counters dotting Rizal Park sport the colors of the Philippine flag of white, blue and red.

So do the popcorn carts.

I think they should have a little yellow for the sun and stars too. And I don't mean the Aquino yellow ribbon or the cheese popcorn.

    I would have stopped for some popcorn and tried to get a little gossip out of that saleswoman!
    I talked to the nicest, funniest young woman in a call center in Manila today! By the end of the call, I have her the nickname, "Visa Esa."

    Yes very popular colours all around the world, and I had not realised that they were so close to my French flag (Blue, white, red).

    Nice! Mukhang super dami na nga ng nabago sa Luneta. Hmmm makes me even more excited to place the place.

    By the way, dancing fountain nga raw yun nasa Luneta. Sabi ng katrabaho ko na kagagaling sa bakasyon.
