Philippine Floods- Ondoy Part 2

For the nth time, Manila and other parts of Luzon has experienced severe rains and flooding for several days. Thank God that our place was not affected and i also gave some help to the victims. The heavy floods covered half of the Philippine capital and pounded the nearby provinces. Water levels reached over some residents' head in several districts. The flooding crippled traffic, shut down the stock market, and prompted schools and government offices to close. The weeks of non-stop rains have killed at least 60 people and thousands of families rendered homeless. And as usual, the blaming game starts again....

Maritess Birthday Celebration

Maritess, my first cousin celebrated her birthday last friday at their family house. It was attended by her close friends and relatives. The foods was a mixture of german and filipino foods. I also have the chance to harvest some of Liberty's vegetables in her small "farmville". She is my other cousin and live just beside Maritess. Its really a good feeling to bond with them and invading their gardens.

Mabel and Me in the City

I have another wonderful moment with Mabel and her kids in Offenburg. I missed them very much being my extended family here in Germany. Over lunch at Karstadt and while the kids are playing, we were able to talked about our family life. We also did some girly shopping and bought some toys for the kids.

By the way, we have another blessing in the family today, the birth of Hailey Jade Rosas, the youngest child of my son Anthony.

Together with my friends, we browsed around the Flea market in Offenburg last thursday. I didn't buy anything because we already have lots of stuff at home and i don't want to add more. I'm just curious if there are some new items but its always the same.
