Batch Meeting at Violeta's Place

There were 13 attendees at  

 batch meeting held August 19. Birthday celebrators from January to August shared merienda while the ever gracious host, Violet cooked pancit . Most of us were affected by the recent flooding ,so there were many accounts of the experiences before the meeting formally started. The previous sugestions during the December 2011 meeting were recalled and the recent suggestions from batchmates abroad were discussed too.   Please read highlights of the meeting in the next post .

Last Sunday,I took a day off and went to Malibu with Michael. We went to  Paradise Cove Beach Cafe. It's a very nice place, a  private property where the Hollywood stars go even in the 1950's . Their black and white pictures are hanging on the wall,famous stars like Marilyn Monroe,Clarck Gable,etc. That restaurant has been there for decades but this is the first time  I've been there. And that is where they film some Hollywood movies. Here are some of the pictures.

BP: Baha sa ilang bayan sa Bataan, patuloy na tumataas dahil sa pag-ulan
