Ped Xing

I really, really thought PED XING is a Chinese name and not something that means “Pedestrian Crossing”.

This street scene is along Roxas Blvd in Manila, where the famous Manila Bay sunset can be seen on a day to day basis (except during rainy days of course, har).

Many posh hotels can be found along this strip where people can stay for a few days of R & R. Some indulge in gastronomic adventures while others shop for alec bradleys, designer bags and shoes or cheap thrills at Chinatown.

We love being on this strip except when there is heavy traffic.

Driveby photo of Laguna de Bay on the way to this country house for a day (an afternoon for me, my husband and son) of swimming and bonding with family (the girls went ahead of us):

I think we were in Jala-jala or Pililia when I took this photo.

This would be a nice setting for a few days of quiet and rest after this school year is over. I’m thinking of lying down on a hammock under coconut trees (with the coconuts picked of course!) while listening to my daughter play her affordable acoustic bass guitar to the beat of soft music which will lull me to sleep.

Ahhh…bliss!

One other thing: I hope this place doesn’t have a particular smell.
