A layover from this little visitor. Dubai’s version of KitKat. Marang fruit from home.

Onmy birthday, woke up to this greeting card from my kids. A reminder of God’s gift of life. Power was busted on that day but grateful for VECO’s responsive service. They have an emergency hotline and immediately answer queries related to VECO concerns. They were able to fix as timely as they could that we were able to have lunch at Kuya Js. It's my birthday --- thought of giving a treat by not cooking and no dishes to wash for lunch :)
Neil, my friend and a birthday buddy, spared precious time to celebrate with me and the rest of the berks. They visited Cebu for a vacation so celebrating together again is indeed memorable. Got a birthday treat at t…
