Upcoming trip to the Philippines...

Next month we will be visiting Menchie's family and friends in the Philippines. We were supposed to visit last year but we welcomed the arrival of our lovely daughter Enna-Marie Martha in December 2005. We were so happy to have her Lola Ping to come to the Holy Land for a month and a half (wow, that is already almost a year ago). Now we are excited to be seeing her again together with Lolo Max and the rest of the family and for them to meet our everyday's bundle and source of joy. Hopefully we can visit a lot of places that we were not able to visit in 2002...We are hoping to visit some friends in Palawan, our Dutch friends Ramin and Cathelyne in Makati, and also to get together with some friends of Menchie in college and officemates in Bankard where she used to work for 7 years before coming to Haifa. We will be staying most of the time at her sister's place in Novaliches whom by the way just had her birthday last Saturday (Happy birthday again!).

Here are some family pictures of Menchie taken some years ago that we would like to share...
