TRIP TO BATAAN

SCTEX to Dinalupihan, Bataan exit

Last March 15, Tatay Boyet, Tita Melody and I went to Balanga, Bataan. It was to attend a christening of Nelda (Lucas)'s youngest kid Andrei Chino. Nelda MSC alumni, after she got married, her family needed to transfer to Bataan. But her heart still remains with MSC that she even chose me and Tatay Boyet to be Godfathers of her child. MSC alumni couple, Larry and Cherie de Guzman were also present there as Godparents as well.

We got to use the SCTEX route for the first time to get there. And it was an experience indeed! It felt like being in a different country.

Another first for us was seeing a bonsai tamarind tree with fruits ripe for the picking!
We enjoyed a sumptuous feast at a local Restaurant following the baptismal rites at the Holy Cross Church. Parlor games also livened up the occasion which are not only intended for the kids but for the adult attendees as well!!!

After a nice banquet and the socializing with the hosts and other guests, we went home grateful for the honor to be chosen as Godfathers and happy for the opportunity to be reunited with old, close friends.

March 15 was also Ate Lulu's Birthday. But celebration will be next Sunday. Weekly rehearsals will resume on that day too.
