What a treat! Carlos treated us to a great walking tour within the walls of Intramuros, Manila’s former capital. Fort Santiago, San Agustin Church,and the Casa Manila were the major stops on our journey.
Carlos dazzled us with a ‘one minute history of Jose Rizal,” the role of the Spanish and the Chinese in the the Philippines, Pinoy architecture(or lack of it) and reasons for the “Halo-Halo” make-up of Filipinos.
If you enjoyed the tour and want to treat your friends or even your parents, then contact Carlos at his blog. He has a schedule posted there.
To learn more about Carlos, to get Mom and Dad to understand the things you told them about Carlos, read this.
Leave a comment for Carlos!

Friday night saw the ISM Boys Varsity Basketball team facing Brent. Trailing by as many as 22 points midway through the third, all hope seemed lost. By the end of the quarter the lead was trimmed to 12 and stayed that way until five minutes remained.
Listen to some of the sounds of the game as the Bearcats battled back to tie the game on the final shot of regulation time.
The comeback was capped off by the boys winning the game in overtime.
