MANILA TRIP

MAY 2008. I and my mom went to Manila which is my home place to visit some of the important people in my life. We gathered with my family and have a mini reunion. Surprisingly, I met my few cousins which I didn't meet for a long period of time since we transferred in Davao. We also tour in Calamba, Laguna which is the place of our beloved hero RIZAL. I saw many old paraphernalia and old things of
Rizal including the old "kalesa" there
which our custom ancestors took it for the future relics.


There were lots of fun there. I discovered many things about Rizal and I am very proud of him. Of course! we must be proud of Rizal and we must love him. The house was quiet hollow because of the oldness of its structures, but most of its materials were already renovated in order to preserve it for our future generations especially those Filipino children. Many people go there because the Museum is one of the tourist spot in Laguna that even foreigners have the willingness to go and see the house of Rizal to know him, learn his literature and historical event.

After going there we roamed in the park of Laguna which I knew the biggest and oldest park in Manila where Spaniards before had their pass time in their meals and talk each other on how to capture Rizal. Anyway, it was an oldest issue about him. But even though it has already been done we need to put in our minds that Rizal made a big part in our historical issue being part of this country made me happy even though we are belong in 3rd world country.
