The global economic recession is taking its toll on almost everybody in this planet. I deem that it will be very imprudent if me and my family will spend our Holy Week vacation in another country in this very trying time. We originally planned to go to Vietnam (to tour the city of Hanoi and Ha Long Bay) and Cambodia (for what else, the Angkor Wat) but for austerity measures, we decided to do the North Luzon road trip that my family have planned last December instead. I think our country has its beauties that are at par with those foreign tourist spots.
So off to North Luzon we go with Sagada and Vigan as our primary itinerary. As always I wanted to make it an educational cum bonding trip with my daughter. Besides, she deserves a reward for doing good in school and is one again the first honor in her grade level.
Like father like daughter. In February, I wrote an article about Moon River being the most romantic song for me and that it is the only song that I can play on the piano. I was pleasantly surprised when this song will be performed by the students of RP’s school during their graduation. RP playing Moon River on keyboards together with her fellow students.
First honor for 4 years in a row.
Time to celebrate. We were in this exactly in this same spot, in this same restaurant in March of 2008 when we celebrated RP’s being hailed as first honor for the Grade 3 level.
