we love New York

Manila is really going out of its way to make us feel at home. We can now walk to New York -- it's only a few steps from our Roxas boulevard condo. Look carefully and maybe you can figure out where you are.

It's truly amazing with the movies can do for you.

Then, if you are hungry, you can go to McDonald, BurgerKing, KFC or Shakey's. And, if you need clothes, you can shop at the Gap, GUESS, or Calvin Klein. You name it and it's almost always here.

is there light at the end of the tunnel????

By popular demand, an update of our blog. I did not realize that it had been quite a while since the last posting of pictures. One of the reasons, I guess, is that things are moving along rather slowly and there are no major changes to photograph.

Our house was supposed to be finished by 8/8/08 but, given the pace of things, that has come to pass. The latest word for completion is mid-November. Sure hope so.

The place is really taking shape and should be very nice when it is finished, when it is finished, when it is finished ....... whenever that may be.
