Last September 27(Saturday), the Kalalakihan/Kababaihan Brigade took the SENIORS to a Tour of the Metropolis and get away from it all from the 4 walls of their houses.
In a "tourist bus" kono, we started from the Church then proceeded thru Coastal Road, Roxas Blvd until the Blue Wave. While on the road, singing was inspired by Ate Angie & accompanied by Pred Nonoy on the guitar. The song a Kristianong Sr ay hindi amoy lupa but Alikabok, hihihi. We took breakfast at Jollibee then went thru Mall of Asia (hindi na namin nilakad sa luob, dahil you know, we did not want to tire the Seniors). Then moved towards Buendia, left thru Taft Ave. Meanwhile, si Sweet ni Ka Fely naglead ng games inside the bus...Wow it was hilarious. Afterwards, Kundiman song of old was sang ala Karaoke. Did you know that Ka Beth Baking had a beautiful rendition of Dahil Sa'yo!!. While along the way, a Tour Guide kono of the memento of the places along Taft, Lawton, Mc Arthur Bridge and Plaza Sta Cruz and Shoe Mart was explained by me (hahaha).
We then went to Intramuros'Fort Santiago where J Rizal was jailed before his death by a firing squad. Then, kain kami ng Sandwiches prepared by the Mark & Evelyn Llerena...until we stopped at the Luneta Quirino Grandstand!! (jingle break) then Games lead by Ka Fely. Then we rolled towards Buendia area, we ate our Lunch at 130pm at Rosie's Pancit Malabon. Wow that was an experience and the last leg was homeward bound.
But Atty Ligsay (who was with us at the bus)had prepared a special pasta cum drums stick at her residence sa Posadas Vill. Thus we had to make the stop over sa kanila and Victor Woods's minus one was played and singing ensued.... Eto mas maganda, when CARMELITA was sung, everybody Danced the Cha Cha!! It was really an exercise with fun, ngayon ko lang nakita si Ruben at Vicky dancing. Then a serious part of the afternoon was the Message from the Holy Bible by Rev J Gianan..afterwards, the 10 commandments for Seniors was rendered by Ka Remy and followed by a Seniors Song to the tune of the Sound of Music???..then bye bye time and Mwah mwahs. Homeward bound to the Pamplona Iemelif Church, on the way home a "pasalubong" thru the courtesy of the Undags were distributed inside the the bus.
At touch down (PIC parking lot), pinagsalo- salohan pa ang napaka sarap na calamay!! (para sana almusal e naging merienda sa hapon)
We thank all those in one way or another who shared their talents, presence, efforts, joy and valuable time to be with our Seniors. God bless you!! Prais the Lord Jesus!!!
