Ships and Angels

Its hot in Subic. The scorching sun seem to penetrate every pore of your body. The beach is definitely inviting but sadly, I am in the opposite side of the island. No sand to play with here but big unserviceable ships docked in freeport's wharf. Subic, afterall, is a former american military base so remnants of base is still present here.

The fun in the beach has to wait another day because it is another working trip for me. However, I had the opportunity to take a breather and stroll in Subic's Bay Walk and had a view of a beautiful sun set. I was surprised at the outcome of these pics 'coz they are mostly grayish and metallic. I intended not to edit them to show you the peaceful, yet cutting beauty of the place. And I am pretty sure it is the opposite of the more colorful sunsets on the other side of the place.


And before I go, let me just share to you my new six angels which I have bought in Baguio during the festivals. I have placed them in my office beside my working desk and they are now the apples of the eyes of my officemates, clients and other visitors. These six angels are carved from wood and each one of them hold a musical instrument. They may be wooden but they definitely a joy to look at especially at the most stressful part of the day.


By the way, these photos are all taken using my Nokia N95 phone so the resolution ain't that great. I hope however that you enjoy looking at them as much as I had fun taking them.

It is going to be another working week-end for me so, to everyone I hope you all had fun and enjoy the summer.

  1. Hi..thanks for visiting Subic..its my place.I was born in the island of Siquijor but I grew up in Olongapo.Subic has been developed by the government not just for the Export processing..but making it as tourist spot.
    the last time i visited Zoobic safari was last year which there was no Jungle Joe before...
    Tagal ko ng hindi nakauwi sa Gapo..salamat sa pictures ha..it reminds me of home.
    Sana you will include Siquijor as your next trip: www.mysiquijor.com

  35. I have intended to play for a long time to turn a roulette in an online casino, but I can not make a choice as for a proper inspiring trust gamble-resource.
    With varying success I played get excited on conditional money in such internet casinos, as Grand Casino, Vabank, in JOKERBANK, in AceKing.
    As a matter of fact, while you are playing on conditional money training chips you win often enough. There is a question – whether I can entrust casino real money.
    I have heard that there are some diplomas certificates which special commissions on supervising internet gambling give to casinos.
    I am curious tell me please - where it is possible to look at them and what their form is in general.
    Also I have seen in some casinos an option trick - «honesty control» - there are some figures and letters in the window, I can not understand what it can mean how much I can trust it.
    Then, if to transfer gain on electronic wallet - who will pay the commission to Webmoney system?
    And, at last, the main thing is why do we need bonuses if they are necessary to be won back in a real form, which exceeds the bonus sum by 20-30 times? That is, to receive $1 from the casino I am lucky to get I should risk $30? Can it be profitable?
    I am thankful in advance thanks in advance for any advice and answers to the above-mentioned questions.
