Happy Wednesday! Jomar and I went to the first day of the PNE Winter Fair. We
left home after office hours and arrived at the PNE shortly before 6:00 PM.
The entrance is near the Pacific Coliseum, not at Hastings and Renfrew's
corner.
Winter Lights, presented by BC Hydro
One of the first lights you will see is the Winter Lights display. But, then,
there are the star, train, and gifts.

After admiring the first section of WinterLights, we took a peek inside the
Tim Hortons Ice Rink at PNE Agrodome.

After a quick pick at the ice rink, we walked through the Polar Passage, my
favourite part of the PNE Winter Fair. I think we walked back and forth under
these lights more than five times during our 3 hours there.
There is a couple Christmas tree at the PNE Winter Fair. The "normal" looking
one near the ice rink and the Christmas Tree covered in purple lights which
you can walk through.

Carolers near Candy Cane Lane
I enjoyed walking through Candy Cane Lane and admiring the life-size candy
display.
Then, there's the Winter Creatures display. Bear, reindeer, and other winter
creatures are on display.

One of my favourite displays: is Santa's Sleigh and Reindeer.
To keep ourselves warm, we took a peek inside Holiday Theatre and were just in
time for the live show: The Magic of Santa Holiday Musical.

Before heading home and while enjoying our Christmas Dinner Poutine, we
decided to go inside the Dueling Pianos tent and were rewarded with live
music.

We left the fair a few minutes after 9:00 PM and had a fun Wednesday date. This is the last event we planned outside the Christmas Eve dinner with the family.
I've been to Baguio a couple of times and have shared my experiences in this blog ( Baguio-Bontoc Adventure and Places to Visit in Baguio ). This particular visit is special because I am going there to do what I love, share with educators what I know and how they could maximize Google Apps. Day 1 Jomar and I left Quezon City at precisely 11:00 PM riding the Joy Bus: The Deluxe Coach of Genesis Transport, Inc. A review of the experience in a separate blog post . We arrived a little after 3:00 AM which makes the travel time just 4 hours between Manila and Baguio! We took a cab going to my favourite hotel in Baguio, Azalea Residences . The person at the front desk said that they have to charge us for two nights already since there's an early check-in charge. I was too tired and sleepy to argue, even if I am worried since I have a limited budget for this trip. I paid using my card, but it seems that their card reader isn't working correctly, but I informed the front des...
Jomar and I will have our Philippine Catholic wedding in July. To enlighten those who want to have their Sacrament of Holy Matrimony in the beautiful and historic Manila Cathedral, I will share with you how much it cost. Why did we pick Manila Cathedral? I want to say that because it's historic and beautiful. But honestly, it's because Manila Cathedral has relevant information on their website for a couple like us living and already legally married abroad. Ms. Donna also responds to our emails and calls promptly. The bonus is it's historic and beautiful. According to one of my Ninang, " ang haba ng walk down the aisle mo ." I didn't think of that. I'm not sure if I like it. LOL. They also have a dashboard where you complete the forms, and it lists what you need to submit and when. It's pretty impressive. Wedding Preparation Step 1. Reserve a wedding date The first thing you do is go to their ...
Since I am new to Canada, it's my first time to experience Spring. I am excited to see how the environment will change with the season change. Therese was so enthusiastic about the Sakura Illumination , but for weather reasons, they moved it to April 1. Nonetheless, our family decided to visit the park to see Spring colours come back to life! Sadly, not all flowers are in full bloom yet, but we did have some great photos to take with us. More importantly, we had some family quality time.
