Christmas Holiday in Amorbach/ Odenwald/Germany with Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas Market )

August 7th, 2006

Weihnachtsmarkt in Amorbach/Odenwald/Germany

I cant imagine a christmas in Germany,without Weihnachtsmarkt.(Christmas market ).I dont know, but, I always like to visit it.Not only here, but,also to other places.This weekend, is Christmas market in our Town,its just only at my door,I live in the middle.

I walked there with my Friend Mila,to see, and there,we saw some of German Friends whom we know, and they talked with us.I only see them in such Feasts like this.So many people, mostly from here.The Prominents,like our Mayor,the riches and the poor were there.But, as I looked around,we were again, the only blackhaired.

The Booths were all decorated with Christmas,and the whole streets with Laterns and Pine Trees.It was more wonderful at night through the colorful lights.

It was so cold outside,but, no snow, so we decided to drink Glühwein to warm us.The Lebkuchen in form of a Heart, I took it at home .

The Stadt Kappelle, played music, and by hearing it, and seeing the whole atmosphare here, I can really feel the spirit of Christmas.

The business Shops were all open,so I used the chance, to buy Christmas Gifts for my Loveones.I wrapped them at once.

At home, I could still hear,the Christmas song , and the noise of the People walking in the market.Its just only in our street.

Tomorrow, is the last day, and Santa Claus will come in the afternoon.Of course, the children will be very happy to see him again.He shares gifts to them.

But, I have to work.I cant see him.Yet, next weekend, I have dayoff,I go again to another Adventsmarkt,and there,I can see him surely!

Enjoy your Christmas Holiday in Germany !

Regards,
Eminga

Travelling to my Hometown Amorbach/Miltenberg/Odenwald/Germany

August 7th, 2006

Germany is a nice country to live in.Everywhere is clean,even the Forest,you can walk there without any fears.Very peaceful and the People are nice and helpful.But, living here is like living in a fast perfect World.You have to follow the rules and regulations, as well as the Laws or else…..youll have big troubles with people and the Authority.You have to be careful in everything you do,in order not to break it.And they have really disciplines.

I like the German Foods, like Sauerbraten with Nudel and Rotkraut,oder Sauerkraut with Kasseler and so on.Its my daily meals (German ), and is used to it.I only eat Philippines Food when Im with my Philippines Friends.

You can observe the people so serrious, because they work hard,and if they work,no play.For them is work is work.Play is play.But they have sense of humor,you can see it at their Fasching or Carnival time .( its just now, until this February )You can also feel and see how warm hearted they are,thats why during this time or ,after their parade,I sometimes go with my Friends in Restaurant, to meet them too,have fun with them , and enjoy drinking , dancing and singing with them.They are jolly and funny with their nice Carnival costumes.And they really laugh!I get also hugs and Kisses from Germans which I do not know.How nice!

Today is very cold,I walk daily in going to work.I have to wear a very thick Jacket to make me warm.Though, today, the Sun did shine the whole day.My flowers at my window began to bloom yesterday.Im happy,that means,my favorite season ,the Spring will soon come .Until now,Im not yet used to the changing Seasons here. Sometimes ,I feel sick and depressed ,especially in winter,when outside so many Snow and few people to see.I cant even go out .Its so cold . Im now delighted to see the Sun!

But, the best thing ,I like here is the natures.All is green.And how I love the Mountains ,as well as stroll in the Forest.Thanks God,we have Hut in the Wood, near it, to take a rest after doing a long walk there !

Preparing my Trip to my Hometown, Mangaldan,Pangasinan ,Philippines

August 7th, 2006

Preparing my trip to the Philippines

The last consecutive years,I was in the Philippines, not only to relax or to have holiday , but, also to see my family,relatives,Friends,my Neighbors ,classmates and as well as to see my own Hometown again.I live in Luzon,the biggest Island, and thats in Pangasinan,about 250 km. from Manila.

Well,you might think, Im rich,Im not, I can only do it,if I see cheap Flight ticket from internet. and I dont stay in hotel,either I live from my parents house (i have still my own sleepingroom there ) or in our own house .If you work hard, its worth doing it.Having rest and live like a queen for little money(maids to do my household chores and going outings without thinking of any works ) is my only luxus!Its only once a year !

But,preparing a holiday for almost 4 weeks is stress.I have to start cleaning our whole House (we have old house with 240 sqm. ) 1 month before, day by day,iron all clothes,shopping for my relatives there and packing my things .Really stress !

For them,I bought 50 soaps,10 Perfumes,20 tube lotions,10 shampoos,20 lipsticks,10 nivia face creams and dolls for my little darlings.I will still buy coffee for my visitors to drink if they visit me .I can also buy there, but, we , Pilipinos are fond of imported products .I have already more than 50 kilos in my baggages, without having any clothes.Allowed is only 35 kl. plus 7 kl. hand luggage. I dont worry about clothes to wear,there are lots to buy and cheaper there.I want to make my relatives and family happy, so, I hope they will accept these all in airport.

Before going back home, I have to buy again something for my relatives ,Friends and workmates in Germany.Its again stress!

But, Im happy to give, and to see them all smiles, with all the little things, I give, is but, a thousand worth!

My Second Day in Manila (2006)

August 6th, 2006

My Eastern Holiday 2006 in Mangaldan, Pangasinan, Philippines › Create New Post — WordPress

We woke up very early in the morning because we wanted to go around Manila on that day.But, we got so many phone calls from our family ,from my province in Pangasinan and in Germany,all wanted to know if we arrived safely and if everything is okey.Also from our male friends who were asking us, if we can meet us somewhere in Makati.

As we went downstair, for our breakfast,we have seen all our relatives and friends (my sister Tecia,my sister Veronica,sis Cherryl with family,my Niece Florence with family and our German Friends)all from Germany who sat together and were happy eating .

It was our first time to see them all there, since,we all have different directions of outings.Cherryl wanted more to make shopping and swimming in pool,the others liked to go to museums and the others preferred to take a walk in Baywalk, for seabreeze and see the views of the Shiffs there.You might not believe it,we separated us in going out of Manila, each with own choice of destinations.Mila , Alicia and I stayed together.

We changed our plan to go to Fort Santiago,instead,we went to Makati to meet our 2 male Friends there,Bong and Roy(the 2 engineers as well as managers who travel much in Europe,and never forget to visit us in my place here in Germany ).My friend Norma from care2,wrote me one time, to go to one of the church there ,in that morning , in that place.I thought of seeing her also there.

So we called a taxi but, asked first ,how much shall we pay from there to Makati.He said 300 pesos.(6 US dollars )Well,we were 3,so it was easy for us to pay.We said yes at once.

Uncle Lorenzo,the Taxi driver was coincidentally, come from my town Mangaldan,speak my native language and knew many of the people I know.

But,we did not tell him that we were Balikbayans(Filipinas from abroad ).He was very jolly and very smart to talk with,we felt at home with him at once and have liked him.Before going out,he showed us first the whole Makati, he know the place very well and explained us all the buildings there.

Makati is like Frankfurt,with tall buildings of International banks,offices,Foreign Embassies,fine restaurants,condominium and so on.We were not so much interested with this kind of place,such sightseeings there are enough to see in Germany.We wanted only to meet our Friends.

So we went outside the Taxi,and walked everywhere,but,did not find our meeting place.Because of our tour with Uncle Lorenzo,we came late and was not so familiar there.We asked the people there and called them at home,but,were not there anymore.We did not have mobile phone with us.

So we came back to the place where the Taxi brought us,and were surprised to see Uncle Lorenzo there, still waiting for us.He was very happy to see us again and offered us to drive us to any parts of Manila.

We told him to bring us to some of the best Hotels ,we wanted to get informations or see the rooms, for our next vacation in the Philippines.But,of course,we told him for our relatives living in Europe.

This Taxi driver drove us to a 5 star hotel.Well,the security Guards asked us, what we will do there.They dont just allow others go inside without reasons or anyone you know.Hope,they did not think us or see us ,as prostitutes.

Uncle Lorenzo told them that we 3 were looking for Americans to meet and marry.They looked inside and as they seen us,they just laughed.But,they opened the gate for us.

At the Hotel door ,stood again groups of men,elegant and some were in uniform, but,they just greeted us, looked friendly at us,and,didnt ask anymore.They just let us inside.

We asked the price of the room and for one day ,is 135 US dollar .I think,for one or few days,we can still afford it,but,as we have seen that many of the Guests were in business clothes,with women who were wearing elegantly ,we thought ,of just rather stay where we are, in our Hotel.(only 51 Euro per day and can wear anything we like ).

We proceeded to the next place and decided to go to Baclaran,my favorite market before, as I was still in the Philippines.I was always there ,everytime I visit my Uncles in Manila, during our school holidays.

From the Hotel where we visited,to there,we paid again 300 Pesos (6 US dollars )for our taxi.(Only to know that it was expensive enough.).

The taxi driver told us , that he had noticed at once, that we are balikbayans,by the way we talk,by our actions,by the way we dress, but,how?.).Yet,the money we paid, was worth too,we really enjoyed riding in his taxi.

In baclaran were lots of clothes to buy,everything you want,or need,you can find there,you can buy there in wholesale price, a place ,mostly for filipinos who cant afford to shop in malls.

The first thing I bought was slipper,my feet was aching for my high heels.But, it was my fault,my favorite shoes from Germany,I left it there somewhere.

Mila and Alicia bought lots of Jeans, each of them ,about 10 ,each only 250 pesos(5 US dollars ),I bought curtains for my Bungalow in the Philippines and for our house in Germany.Also house decorations ,like plastic plants for inside.I did not buy clothes for me, because I have already enough to carry.

After shopping ,we got a taxi in going to our Hotel and was surprised to know how cheap we will pay.Only 2 US dollars.We gave the taxi driver another 2 US dollars .

We rested a little bit,and then, went outside again for our lunch.We have gone to the nearest Chowking (like fast foods ) and ate there Pancit(glass noodle) with Lumpia(springrolls with vegetables) and native cakes as our dessert.(including softdrink only 1.50 US dollars ).

After it,we went home to get somethings for us,for our next outing on that afternoon.But,guess, who were in Hotel waiting for us?Our male Friends,from my barrio in Mangaldan,Pangasinan.

In baclaran were lots of clothes to buy,everything you want,or need,you can find there,you can buy there in wholesale price, a place ,mostly for filipinos who cant afford to shop in malls.

The first thing I bought was slipper,my feet was aching for my high heels.But, it was my fault,my favorite shoes from Germany,I left it there somewhere.

Mila and Alicia bought lots of Jeans, each of them ,about 10 ,each only 250 pesos(5 US dollars ),I bought curtains for my Bungalow in the Philippines and for our house in Germany.Also house decorations ,like plastic plants for inside.I did not buy clothes for me, because I have already enough to carry.

After shopping ,we got a taxi in going to our Hotel and was surprised to know how cheap we will pay.Only 2 US dollars.We gave the taxi driver another 2 US dollars .

We rested a little bit,and then, went outside again for our lunch.We have gone to the nearest Chowking (like fast foods ) and ate there Pancit(glass noodle) with Lumpia(springrolls with vegetables) and native cakes as our dessert.(including softdrink only 1.50 US dollars ).

After it,we went home to get somethings for us,for our next outing on that afternoon.But,guess, who were in Hotel waiting for us?Our Friends,from my hometown ,Pangasinan.

My First Day in Manila (2006 )

July 28th, 2006

My First Day in Manila (2006 )

So our Van service took us from Manila Airport to our Hotel in Bayview,,just in front of the US Embassy .It was only about 30 minutes drive.

So many Guests were at the counter,We were surprised to see some of the Germans ,who were with us in Frankfurt Airport.

Mila ,Alicia and I stayed there in the line longer,only to tell us that we are not booked at all.

We showed our bill and she read,but, looked in computer again,still doubting for our reservation.

We became impatient,we were already tired and Alicia was already getting angry,so,we told her that ,we will go to another Hotel,if theres no place for us.

At last,we got our room,but,I think the worst room from there.We passed to a narrow way,separated from the main way of the other Guests rooms, and there inside ,were one double bed and one clapp bed(with a thin matress.) at the middle.

We all three are working in the Home for the Old Ages,we dont want to hurt our back,so no one of us , like to sleep on that little bed.We complained.

After one hour,a hotelboy came and asked us,if we can transfer to another room,but,one double and single room.That means,we will separate each others.No,we preffered to just stay there.

There were bottles of water there,I opened one and drunk ,too late to see the price ,which was 10 times higher than in the market.

Though tired,we went outside to buy our drinks and carried it in our hotel.

After that,we called our friends and relatives at phone ,who are living in Manila,including my bestfriends Bong and Roy. (both natives of our town and were already several times in Germany) and invited them to come.

The others came at once, except the two men,who asked an appointment for us to meet them the next day.

Our hotelroom was full ,with lots of visitors. But,we were happy to see them .And yes,of course,we gave them pasalubong.

As they all gone,we went outside for our dinner.Food in Hotel was so expensive and aside from that,we wanted to see our favorite locals again.

We walked a little bit,along the mabini street and saw night clubs.I can still remember, that this street , was once or perhaps ,until now, famous for hot girls.(not sure ).

We wanted to avoid passing there,so we called a Taxi to bring us to the nearest restaurants or fast foods .

Jeepneys are lots in Manila, to ride,but,Taxi is not so expensive,we paid only 100 Pesos for it.(about 2 US dollars ).

He brought us to the Mall,about 3 kilometers from there,it is a big shopping center with restaurants ,internet caffees and so on.

We only looked,but,did not buy .We were tired and wanted to eat.We were hungry.

After eating,we came home ,to our Hotel,took a rest ,but,since we still talked longer,we slept late at that night.

It was Alicia, who slept at the clapp bed.We decided it, through playing with the coins,and she lost the game.

We slept well at that night.

My Journey to the Philippines

July 28th, 2006

My trip to Manila

My travel this year, to Manila was really unforgettable one, because I was not alone,we were in group.

Just only imagine,travelling with your filipina bestfriends , and relatives, who are all living from the same place in Germany .Wow, that happen only very seldom.

Though we had the same date of arrival,we were not together in airplanes.The others have chosen the Emirates ,(about 650 Euro per person ), and they booked it already one year before.

My group,with ,my sister Cherryl (with family),Alicia and Mila have decided our flight at the last minutes,
in which , we flew to the Cathay Pacific (850 Euro per person ),so , was not able to go with them in one plane together.

My bestfriends and I had the same seat in Airplane ,so we talked there ,laughed and did not sleep at all , did not even notice the long hours of our journey.

We stopped in Hongkong,but, didnt have the time for window shopping, only 1 hour stay ,we had to go on walking to the next flight again,this time to the Philippines.

Aboard,were so many Pilipinos, Im sure, majority were all Balikbayans, going Home for eastern Holidays.

As soon as we landed to our land,we all clapped our hands, all happy to see our country again.

I Said :Manila here we are:

The personals in Airport welcomed us with smiles ,they were friendly and are always ready to help.

Im already tired with the long travel ,so,as somebody approached me,I said yes at once.He got a cart for me,and waited patiently till my heavy luggages in the carousel came.

I wanted to give him money,but,I was wondering that he refused it.I still insisted to give him chocolates, which I put at his jackets pocket.

Before going outside,we have changed our Euro to the Philippines Pesos.It was 1 to 66 at that time.We were happy (with the high rates ) and felt like rich .In Germany is 100 Euro nothing.

As soon as we were at the door outside,a beautiful Filipina woman in uniform, asked my friend Alicia(secretly ) if she can give her anything as pasalubong.(something from abroad ).

Well,my spendable friend , gave her 20 Euro.Wow!Thats a lot of money already for a filipino ,who did not help us at all.

Since we were in group,we got a van , which was also big enough to take our many luggages.

From Airport to our Hotel in Bayview,(about 8 kilometer ),we paid about 900 pesos, (about 20 US dollars )which was not so hurting (for us),since we all shared together,plus 200 pesos(4.50 US dollars ) tip .

We did not go directly to my province Pangasinan,because,we wanted to see first the nice places , as well as experience the day and night life in Manila !

PS:
Ill still write my stay in Manila!

My Eastern Holiday 2006 in Mangaldan,Pangasinan,Philippines › Create New Post — WordPress

July 21st, 2006

My Eastern Holiday 2006 in Mangaldan,Pangasinan,Philippines › Create New Post — WordPress

My Eastern Holiday 2006 in the Philippines

My Eastern Holiday was not only to relax,visit my relatives and Friends or,seeing my country but, also to be alone,take time for me and to have time with God. About 90% of Pilipinos are Catholics and they take their beliefs seriously.The Churches during Sunday are full with young and old people.Eastern is a big event in our country.They celebrate the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ .You can see how religious the Pilipinos are.

I bought 30 rosary to give my family as well as my bestfriends in the Philippines.I taught some of them how to use it.From my arrival until my departure, we prayed rosary daily.

I visited some of the miraculous Churches ,like Our Lady of Manaog ,Grotto of Sta Lourdes in Bagiou and St. Tesoro in Calasiao.

Last Holy Thursday,we walked from our Church in my Town Mangaldan going to the Church in Manaog.Its about 25 km. away .So many people were there,lots of young people.As I reached the Church, I could not believe that Ive done it.

The next day,that was good Friday,we went to the church ,but, could not enter inside, it was full, so, we just stayed outside.After the mass,we joined the Folks for the burial of Jesus.We walked again in the whole Town middle.So many people were there.We came back again in the evening to kiss the dead body of Jesus.

Many of my classmates who live from other places and abroad came home this eastern so we organised our class reunion which was held on that glory Saturday.That was day and night meeting at the beach,but, since, Ive invited my relatives and friends (from Germany who were with us ) for lunch and coffee, I came at 6 pm.I stayed there the whole night in the beach.In the morning at 4 am,we went to Mc-Donalds for breakfast.

Eastern Sunday was time for the Church.I slept only 5 hours from 5 am to 9:30 am, and went to the Church.It was baptismal of my niece child, but, I preffered to visit my mother in the cemetry and went to the beach for our family excursion.

Eastern Monday was for my relatives.I stayed at my family , and talked with my relatives who visited my father on that day.but, in the afternoon went to the town.

Of course,after Eastern,I enjoyed my vacation too, through visiting our nice beaches which are just only 8 KM away from my Town , and other nice places . I spent time too, talking with my neighbors and friends,who gave also their time to me, without any hurry.

I was always riding in trycicles (fare is 5 Pesos ) from the door of my house to the town middle and with Jeeps.For little money ,you can go everywhere you like.

Food in restaurant are cheap,I did not need to cook.With my relatives of about 12 persons,for good food and drinks in a very good restaurant,I pay only 2.300 pesos.(about 40 dollars ). I was always in a cheaper one which was not so expensive for me.

Well,there, I feel at home,its my own country,and theres really no place like home.
