~scribbles from people-watching on my solo travels~
there was a couple last night, who were kissing heavily at the bar. they were seated beside each other, her feet casually draped over his legs, his hand idly stroking her calf. she has a cute look about her, flushed cheeks, heavy lidded doe eyes, rumpled hair, and once in a while, she would flip her hair. as she does this, she would pull out a cap with one hand, and coif her hair with the other, then finally use her cap to haphazardly hold her hair in place. she would do this every so often, with a concentrated pout on her lips. and i, like the besotted boy beside her, would sit entranced and watch the scene.
penang is a gastronomic and visual delight. roo and i had so much fun exploring little adventures all over town, and only wish we had more time to scour out every nook and cranny. also, i would have taken more food photos if the food stayed long enough in our plates. =) e&o is beyond pretty, and the company of lady V and her family made durian-gorging a lot more delightful!
Aliwan fiesta is held annually in Manila to celebrate the different 'fiestas' (translation: festival, party) from the many provinces in the Philippines. Extremely proud to come from a country with such a rich cultural diversity, I think it's such a blessing to have an event allows us to sample most of the Philippine festivals from various provinces on one stage.
