Bus Touring Around Vietnam To The Underground Cu Chi Tunnels
>> Thursday, February 11, 2010
Here are some snapshots I got around Vietnam, Saigon on our Bus Tour to the Underground Cu Chi Tunnels. I also took a picture of our very talkative tour guide who explained the history of Vietnam and how they were colonized by the Americans.
Filipino Creativity: Artificial Flower Plants Made Of Plastic Bottles Outside Unitop | Butuan City, Philippines
>> Friday, May 15, 2009
While strolling near Unitop (a store that sells almost all made in China merchandised) in Butuan City, this group of street vendors (Butuanons) caught my attention especially on what they were selling. My dad immediately told me to capture on video the actual cutting, melting, molding of this very unique Pinoy Creativity.
It's a hand-made plastic plant decor which they made using used 1.5-2 Liter Softdrink bottles with colors Blue and Green (from Coca-cola/Pepsi and Sprite/7-up bottles). The colored petals were also made of soft drink straws.
We were amazed with their creativity that we bought one Blue Plant Decor which cost us Php 20.00 or $0.4 only! But can you believe it? A single used plastic bottle that usually has no cost (when sold in the Junk shop) now costs Php 20.00 with just an IDEA, PATIENCE and CREATIVITY. It sure is one of the Best Buys when you're in Butuan City! Let us also help promote and patronize our own Filipino-made products.
P.S.
A man carrying a pail full of skinned frogs also asked me if I would like to buy his stuff. They said it tastes good but we're not yet ready for it. Maybe next time =).

Valle Verde Country Club, Kerygma Feast | Manila, Philippines
>> Monday, April 27, 2009
We arrived at Valle Verde Country Club around 12 noon so me and my dad just decided we eat somewhere near the place. Although we have finished eating, my stomach was still longing for the chicken bought at Terry’s Luncheonette and Chicken House that time.
The Valle Verde Country Club is the site where Mr. Bo Sanchez is holding a Kerygma Feast every Sunday. Kerygma is a greek word meaning “proclamation of the gospel”. So what can you expect in a Kerygma Feast?
No, it's not the traditional feast that we refer to with all kinds of dishes on the table. Rather it is a gathering of people to listen to Christ's teachings. Along with it are the worship and praise songs, prayers, thanksgiving and exhortations that opens and closes the event. It is open to all Christians and those who wish to attend. K-Feast is an evangelistic tool providing scriptural, practical and Orthodox teaching to Catholics particularly in the Catholic renewal. It is a monthly activity headed by the 'Light of Jesus' community. A Catholic community present in key cities of the Philippines with members from all walks; singles, couples, professionals, youth and more. The talks are given by Bo Sanchez and some Light of Jesus Community members. Bo is the proponent of K- feast and also in - charge of the publications of Kerygma and other books on practical guide for Catholics and Christians alike. The topics in the K- feast vary from God's love, virtues, attitudes, values to financial management.

We always make it a point every time we are in Manila to set aside its Sunday attending a Kerygma Feast. You’ll feel fully charged listening to Bo Sanchez, like a cell phone after an overnight charging.

Best Places In The World | Two For The Road About
>> Saturday, April 18, 2009
Two For The Road: Best Places In The World is a Blog about a journey of a father and son as they pursue their greatest passion in life, to travel.
Two For The Road: Best Places In The World is authored by Jan Mckingley "Janmck" Hilado and is co-authored by his father Tony Hilado. This blog was first conceptualized when I(Janmck Hilado) traveled to Vietnam and Cambodia, which was my first time to travel out of the country. Even before that trip, Me and my father are already fond of traveling just about anywhere in the Philippines and we enjoyed every single bit of it. But in our Vietnam-Cambodia trip, Me and my father discovered that traveling is really our greatest passion in life.
I also discovered that I love taking photos of scenic sites, exotic foods, and culture-oriented people. The photos in this blog are captured by a simple Samsung S860 Digital Camera. I'm not yet a Professional Photographer but I dream to have a Canon EOS Camera soon. My father is the one taking videos using a Sony DCR-DVD 755 Handycam.
So discover the Best Places In The World and join with us as we try to travel and unravel secrets of our Beautiful Earth! Experience different places, cultures, exotic foods, scenic sites and adrenaline packed adventures! Keep Moving Forward!
