Wet, Wet, Wet/OWT and WW


Summer has officially arrived and it's been sizzling hot in Metro Manila.  Last week, the hottest day in 2012 was recorded at 34.4 degrees Celsius.  And expect hotter days [and nights] in the coming months, according to the weather bureau.  

On Sunday afternoon, Fritz and I drove to High Street to cool down and look what we found!


Kids frolicking at the fountain.  They were absolutely having a great time.
Some parents screamed and ran after their children but kids just wanted to get wet.  I heard a dad telling his two boys that the car seat would get wet and the younger boy reasoned that he would sit on the floor. *LOL*


A mom was trying to convince her daughter that the water was dirty, "It's from the toilet," she said.  "But it doesn't smell, Mom!" rolled her eyes and ran to join other kids at the fountain.  Parents looked on helplessly as their kids get soaked, they didn't expect that a Sunday stroll at the mall would end up in a shower party.


Children were fun to watch, they danced in the water with total abandon.  I'm sure the adults watching wished they could join in, too.  I nudged Fritz towards the fountain but he hates to get his paws wet.:p

Public art @ BGC [MWT]

@ mirandablue
Spotted this sculptural installation during my afternoon walk at Bonifacio High Street in Bonifacio Global City (BGC).  BGC has been showcasing big art pieces around strategic locations in this fast-rising, highly-urbanized residential and commercial district.  One weekend, I'll drive around BCG for an art tour to share with you a number of exciting public art pieces that create a vibrant environment for people who work, live and play here.
I couldn't find any info on this sculpture...it reminds me of ET and Paul, the alien.:p

@ mirandablue
Bonifacio Global City is located at the former military base (Fort Bonifacio) in Taguig City, and between the business hubs of Makati and Ortigas Center.  It is linked to Manila's major thoroughfares and seven access points, and a few minutes to both domestic and international airports.
