Youre all very lucky. Spending outing at nearly zero degrees C! Here in Manila and suburbs we suffer very dry spell at the peak of the El Niño time (very dry and no rain at all). I spend outdoors with only a t-shirt and pair of slippers. But with the commencing summertime I remember again the province of Pampanga, with its soothing breeze and the brown hills yonder farther to the east. Travel at the hiway maybe warm and dusty but I enjoy, especially when I recall all these beauties that inspired my spirit: the viaduct, Cafe Fernandino, Arayat, Balibago, and the image of a woman which remained imbedded in my
mind for more than 35 years today...
