Hello may fellow steemians yesterday I had a great day. It was a long and tiring day but very much worth it.
Our day started with a good weather, the sun seems like smilling to us. Heading to our way of course we encountered traffic! Which everyone of us cannot avoid, anywhere you go its there! it gets heavier because of the governments "build and build projects". So indeed forever really exist in traffic! 😅😅
After 3hrs with bordome , hunger and long patience we finally get to our first destination.
The Quiapo church. We're glad we came minutes before the mass started, we able to secure a seat near in front so we had a sober time listening to the homily.
(Gospel: Mark (10:1-12)
Jesus rejects the option of divorce and remarriage
Some Pharisees came, and to test him they asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” He answered them, “What did Moses command you?” They said, “Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her.” But Jesus said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart he wrote this commandment for you. But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Philippine is one of the two countries left who hasn't approve devorce yet.
Its a big issue here now to finally approved the Divorce or not. Many in the conggress are in favor of it, but the president is not. Of course churches doesnt want to allow it to happen. For me only God should rule us; He should be above of all of us, but i do know also that there are a lot to consider here. and we do really have a long way run to talk about it, i should cut this topic here now before this post becomes a book for taking too long ! 😅😂 haha and i do still have 2nd destination to talk about.
So then after mass we headed to our 2nd destination, from quiapo we rode jeep going to cubao, from cubao we proceed to the MRT going to guadalupe station, from guadalupe we again rode a jeepney going to gate 3! It takes us more than two hours for we battled up with the traffic jam again! Yeah its traffic even if its noon time! Our transport becomes more tiring because of the weather; mr.sun is no longer to see, instead his buddy mr.rain is there again letting us feel his great presents hahahaha 😅😂😆 After the rides we still have to walk some more good thing the rain has stop already.
By the way we really don't know the way where we're going! 😅😅 kinda thrilling right? Hahaha so we used waze and "magta" (magtanung in english "asking")
we keep on asking for our way until we finally reached our second destination! 😎😁 we finally came to Venice Grand Cannal at Mckinley hill!! 🤗🤗
Venice Grand Canal also known as Venice Piazza is a shopping-mall located at McKinley Hill Garden Villas in Taguig City. It is well known for its venice like structure. It only opens last 2015 and since then it becomes well known promenade. It has very refreshing and glamorous atmosphere. Hahaha kinda sossy! 😄 here are some of my photos :
They have there what they called "Gandola ride" where in you can have a tour in their emerald green cannal at the cost of 250 pesos per head during weekdays and 350 during weekends. Their rides last for atleast 15 to 20 mins.
The place is really mezmerizing and you woudnt help but takes a lot of pictures. Why not? Its an instagrammable worthy place !
With the construction still on going and the mall is still having last touches it is safe to say that the VENICE GRAND CANNAL MALL is really a promising one. Im looking forward to see how luxurious it would be when it finally had its last touch.
After satisfying our selves with the view and capturing photos we then decided to call it a day haha we had our dinner first at the mcdonalds before going home, of course we have to fill our stomachs to be ready for again' our long rides going home 😎😆😅
So thats for today thanks for dropping by :)
