Hello My Dear Great Ones,
My brother in law, Joe, married his long time sweetheart Jody a few weeks ago in Manila. Celia and I were there and I tried to fit in wearing a double XL Barong, which is what Filipino men wear on formal occasions such as weddings, funerals or state functions. Its' pretty sweet. Very light weight, and transparent you have to wear a white undershirt underneath to avoid embarrassment. So basically you are wearing a white tee shirt with a see through covering. Not bad for the plus 30 days you get pretty well every day in the Philippines. Anyway, my efforts to blend in being a 6 foot 6 white guy amongst a crowd of filipinos who range from 5 ft 2 to 5 ft 10 was not entirely successful. Whatever, it was a great wedding, filipinos are awesome and I had a great time.

Rather an elaborate ceremony with catholic influences.
Photo taking time.
It was an honor and a great time to be part of Joe and Jody's special day.
Have a great week everyone!
Love adios and ping on!
Dirk
