a Baguio retreat

i found this retreat in Baguio, which is just off the Marcos Highway.
this retreat  is the Maryknoll Sisters's place.  it is very beautiful.  i dont know if they allow people (non-sisters i mean ) to stay here, but it is a wonderful place to meditate.  Ask

Sister Catherine O. Encarnacion is a first cousin on my Dad's site.  She showed us this beautiful place.
Right beside this place is the Maryknoll Ecological Sanctuary where they hold seminars, have group stay weekends and overnights.  

they also have a small store where i bought cards, candles, and a tv-shirt.

Military things

if you follow philippine politics, you'd have read about the recent scandal about the military
*sigh*
i am glad - at least today, that Dad has gone to a better place
he would have been pained at the events
