Yesterday we went to the children's museum in Manila with our friends, the Hables. It definitely gave us a taste of the Filipino culture.

| The girls were thrilled with the miniature jeepney. That's the closest they are ever going to get to one, I guarantee you that. |

| There was a miniature church. The country is 95% Catholic and that influence is definitely felt. |
It was a fun day out. Afterwards we had lunch at the American Embassy next door. We are planning an embassy tour later, but I don't think pictures are allowed there. The girls were thrilled with their "Real American" lunches- hot dogs and onion rings. I was thrilled that the bathrooms at the Embassy had seats and toilet paper and soap AND paper towels. Thank you, America!
