Haberday!
Turning 42 wasn’t so bad, as a matter of fact it was quite enjoyable!

The entire household hied off to Dampa for a hearty seafood lunch.

While the girls and the kids settled themselves inside Trinity Restaurant, Sam and I went into the seafood palengke for the goodies.



My eldest son Athelstan came to Manila and stayed over for a week, that was real nice too.

And Maia wanted to eat everything in sight, including all the ice in the ice bucket.

Sam, our gracious host, who patiently picked crab and shrimp meat for me dahil ang kulit ng anak nya, ayaw magpababa.

And two of the cutest kids on earth, Kuya Maui and Little Maia.

After lunch we went to SM Sucat to get my birthday present, a Sony Ericsson T630 that I’ve had my eye on for about a month now.

It takes pretty good pics for a celphone cam.
It was, all in all, a pretty good day ![]()

Bambit, belated happy birthday sa yo! I like reading picture stories, and your post is very nice. I’ve had the chance to eat there once, and I enjoyed it too.

Oh my, I miss the SEAFOOD in the Philippines! I was just writing an entry here about “Open Air Markets” (which is also typically Asian) and I made a remark that seafood is nothing compared to the tropics. Totoo naman! Just look at the goodies in your foto’s. *sigh*
I have been to Dampa before too. The prices there in the past was really a bargain. Would love to go back there again when I am in Manila, I just need someone to tag along because the Dutchman doesn’t eat anything from th sea. He is so KJ!
Happy Birthday though. In Holland, we usually say, “Congratulations” to the birthday person and all the relatives and friends. Weird isn’t it? Haha
