Wednesday, March 24 from Cliff

Today turned out to be a very quite day.  We went to Muntilupa City Hall to meet the mayor.  We had a long discussion with the city administrator, but the mayor was busy campaigning and was not able to see us.  We drove through a new development of homes for the Informal Settlers, the Filipino version of the homeless or near homeless.  These people are being relocated from where they were living along the railroad tracks and along the lake and riverbanks.  During the typhoon Ondoy, many of these people lost everything, and some lost their lives.  Then we went to a Rotary meeting with the Rotary Club of Muntilupa.  This was a smaller club which which included out GSE leader, Baby Bunye. After the meeting we went to the mall for some more shopping.  We are being given so many things that the team is buying an extra carryon suitcase for the return trip.  I plan to wait a little longer to see what consolidation I can do.

Tonight, Tim and I went to the Parañanque Metro South Rotary Club meeting.  This was another small gathering of very nice Rotarians at the Asia Tavern.  Food and business followed by beer and fellowship.  What a great plan.
