Manila Cathedral Visita Iglesia

Holy Thursday, April 17, 2014 Philippines

12 noon
A———-” Sa susunod huwag ka ng mag-go-golf pag Webes Santo. Buong taon na kayong nag-go-golf, tapos………”
E———-“Magpa-practice lang ako tart, mga 6 nadito na’ko”.

7:00 pm
E———- “Saan tayo mag-bi-Visita Iglesia?
Oyen——- “Mommy likes to go to Manila Cathedral…”
E———- “Ang layo naman. Di dapat umalis tayo ng maaga pa”.
A———- “Paano tayo aalis, mainit naman at hindi tayo kumpleto”.

Tingnan mo ito, pagmag-go-golf kahit nasa ikapitong bundok eh okay lang sa kanya tapos pag ako ang nag-aya eh gusto lagi na lang ang pupuntahan namin eh nasa kabilang kanto lang. Pagkakain kami sa restaurant, pag sinabi namin the Fort, sagot agad, “Ang layo naman dyan na lang sa malapit”. If your companion doesn’t enjoy being with you, this is what happens, you haven’t left the house, he already wants to come home.

A———- “Eh di dyan na lang sa Christ The King”.

A———- “Never mind. Christ the King na lang para malapit”.

Heavy traffic started as we approached Intramuros. We got off the van some three blocks away from the newly opened Cathedral.
We turned right at the corner of Palacio del Gobernador and the majestic cathedral is right there.

Parking was difficult

There were thousands of people just standing in front of the church.
My son and Edmund didn’t want to go inside thinking that it would be difficult to squeeze through.

There was a little boy selling Station of the Cross booklets, who’s practically buried beneath the wave of people. I couldn’t even stop to see what he was selling so I could buy. People at the back were pushing.

Manila Cathedral underwent major renovation.
The interior is reminiscent of the churches found in Europe.
