Re-visiting Rizal’s House at Calamba, Laguna

Tweet

It was our college days (educational trip in Social Science) when I first visited the Rizal’s House in Calamba, Laguna. On September 11, after almost decade and a half, I got a chance to revisit the said place. Buti nalang holiday sa Bulacan.

The house is on the opposite side of this Street Mark.

The house is located at the corner of J.P. Rizal and Mercado Street. One landmark near the place is the very huge clay pot with the names of different Baranggays of Calamba.

The house is open to public free of charge (you can leave some donation) from 8:00am to 5:00pm, Monday to Thursday. You just have sign in the huge visitor's logbook.

Family Day Sundays: Busy at the Kitchen

Its Friday again and I forgot to post how our previous weekend was. Here it is:

First, I made a supposed-to-be velvet cupcakes but didn’t came out as what is expected. Sabi nga ni Mommy: “Magconcetrate ka na lang sa cheesecakes and cookies.” I have to agree. I already made several attempts in making cupcakes but I cannot get the perfect mixture.

Matthew: The Future MVP

Tweet

With the rampant innovation in technology, kids become more techie at a younger age. This lessens their physical activities where some resulted to obesity. This also affects their behavior. They become less patient because they are used to have a fast-paced transition acquired from the gadgets they played and watching TV. As parents we are still responsible to engage them into some physical activities.

Over the weekends, we are supposed to go to Nueva Ecija but Matthew got sick the day before our planned trip. So, Mama and Papa visited us here in Bulacan na lang. They bought Matthew a new basketball ring which I temporarily installed at home and of course, new toy cars.
