Christmas in the Philippines

Avenida street scenery



Sidewalk grill in Avenida Rizal to accomodate late afternoon shoppers


Tiangges in Avenida are always a good source of cheap gifts for friends and inaanaks


Calle Raon near Quiapo


Ukay-ukay can be a haven for those who wish to wear DKNY or Versace but cannot afford to buy in the malls.


Simbang Gabi in Quiapo. This is the part of Manila that never sleeps.


Eating the traditional Puto Bumbong and Bibingka(matched with steaming hot tea) can be a very refreshing experiewnce after hearing mass at five in the morning.
