I was away from the computer for almost 2 weeks because right after Christmas, I flew to California to meet my cousin...
With my cousin Joey and gracious host.
two of my long time friends...
With Ate Emms
With Marlon
and a couple of former students whom I have not seen for years...
With Carmen and Loike [with her cute son Sean who happens to be my nephew because she is married to my cousin Paul who is also her HS classmate and former student of mine.]
and some blogger friends whom I met online not too long ago.
The Salitype Sistahs [R-L: Me, Betchai, Chay and Tes... plus Rose]
Two weeks of hectic yet exciting escapade in the Golden State ... a thousand plus photos...
ten pounds of weight gained due to endless feasting...
hundreds of dollars spent on shopping...
and thousands of miles spent on foot... in a car... or on the bus - exploring different important landmarks of California...
meant that I have a lot to blog about - so I will talk about it in parts. So in the meantime... this is my Californication - in a nutshell.
