First weekend in Manila for 2010

It's a Saturday, and my first one in Manila for this year. Got here Tuesday morning and went straight to work. Already it seems like Iloilo was a long time ago. But this day last week I was still there, and it was also my brother Juan Pablo's 28th birthday. We went to this burger place in Jaro that served burgers as big as your face. The next day we went to Mari-it Wildlife Conservation Park in Lambunao, and the day after that to Miagao to have some of Hilltop's succulent talaba. Overall, it was a relaxing and fun week back home.

I didn't anymore get a chance to write logs here on those days, but here are some photos.

Huge burger from that place across Jaro Elementary School. Can't recall the name of the place, but I remember the nice mural on its side wall facing the street where we buy butterscotch.
