Fort Santiago, revisited/OWT
I am having fun with photo effects.:p And I think these photos are perfect for the vintage effect, don't you think? The top and bottom photos were taken in front of Fort Santiago, an old Spanish fort in the walled city of Intramuros. With these horse-drawn carriages, I was thrown back in time to 1900's Manila. But I was here to attend a modern-day wedding reception at the Plaza de Moriones. My friend's son got married---I couldn't believe it! It was like yesterday when this handsome little boy entertained himself by drawing pictures while us girls were having girl-talk.
my friend, Angie, giving her speech and crying at the same time. she couldn't seem to stop crying.:p Nico, after all, is her first-born.
This building across the entrance of Fort Santiago houses United Philippine Lines (UPL), a manning company for the maritime industry.

Sunday Bridges/Trece Martires bridge
I miss participating in Louis' Sunday Bridges and visiting beautiful bridges around the world. Well, here's my contribution today---a steel truss bridge in Trece Martires City, the capital of Cavite province, about 42 kilometers south of Manila. Drove across this bridge a day after Christmas to visit a friend in Trece Martires City. Had to park on the side of the highway to take this photo.:p
