This is the family that the party was for. Don't ask me their names, I dont remember.

The man is Filipino and the woman is Chinese....the little girl is just out_of_control cute.

Everything looked great and everyone seemed to have a good time. So good that they didnt see the strange white man loading his plate full with chicken.

Looks like the little girl's name is Kristen.

OK, dinner is over. What next? CLOWNS!!!

Clowns singing,dancing and telling very bad jokes.

The little girl shown in pic 2 is from Canada, both Phil parents.

She was exceptionally bright and spoke English very well. If I remember correctly her parents were moving BACK from Canada. They are both professionals of some type.

Last one for now.

This man was pedalling down the street in Pateros (next to Makati ).

You will see these guys riding bikes selling all sorts of things. There is a man that sells "dirty ice cream" (that's what Pinang calls it, home made ice cream ), balut

, dirty corn and various other specialty foods and drinks.

Most of them have a special ring. The corn man has a special sounding bell, the ice cream man has another. Everyone has their own proprietary bell so that you know who is riding around outside ringing.

They all have the same kind of bell even far outside of the area. They must have a franchise of sorts going. If you want to sell dirty corn you get a holder for the corn....and that special bell. The "Hey, I've got dirty corn" bell.

This man sped away before I could get a good look at those things on his cart.

Most all of these vendors has been very nice to me. They show me what they are selling and go out of their way to answer silly questions. If they let me take pictures most of the time they get 20 or 50 pesos as a tip. Nothing bought just the tip for letting me see what they have and taking a pic.
