Today is the public holiday to celebrate Philippine Independence Day last Saturday, June 12. We were supposed to have our gathering of former seminarians to bid farewell our classmate, Fr. Memeng Salaonga, who will become the new Spiritual Director of Coleggio Filipino. Unfortunately, only myself, Mac Josue and Josefino Lito Tomimbang were able to attend the sumptuous lunch in Fr. Memeng's museum by the river. He served steamed crabs, shrimps, fresh oysters and broiled milkfish plus pork spare ribs sinigang. To complete the meal were the sesserts of custard cake and brazo de Mercedes that I brought. Great small reunion. After which I rushed to the Development Academy of the Philippines where we started an orientation program for Congressman-elect, Boxing Champ Manny Pacquiao.
Exhausting but great day.
