Thank you so much to everyone for your birthday wishes.

I love you all. Ysabella

Happy Birthday, DAD!

Chuck arrived punctually from Amsterdam on the 22nd in the p.m. - sleek and guapo. JMC was so proud to have his ahijado with him
Chuck was starving and it was only 6pm - but we were happy to have tapas with him in the sister restaurant of Cerveceria Catalana which most of you know...jabugo, navajas, chipirones, pimiento padron, bacalao, etc. etc. . Satiated, he was ready to meet his Tusquets editor in chief.
Following day was full of interviews in the hotel and the formal presentation of Ilustrado in Casa Asia. Chuck in tux with slicked hairstyle a la Ilustrado Rizal.
Family had reserved front row seats. Good number of audience.
Following day happy birthday Chuck and Nana dinner at Jos' and Nana's apartment.

Needless to say my heart kept popping with pride and joy seeing how Chuck brilliantly answered questions and charmed the audience. BRAVO ILUSTRADO MIGUEL!!!!!!

p.s. - sorry for the inverted sequence of photos - don't know how to fix it.

Why we live in Vancouver....

The Story of Electronics (2010)



Hi Guys,
One of the members of our family, Joey Siy is really keen for all of us to see this and other videos from a project called http://www.storyofstuff.com/
These videos are really great in explaining that recycling is not enough, that it's also about examining how our own consumerist behavior contributes to ruining our planet, our health , and even our own happiness!
Really very apropos to watch before diving into  those thanksgiving sales!
Well done, Joey!

Hello dear family!

I´m trying my best to join this nice blog, but as some of you know, I´m not good at all with computers and anything that has to do with computers. Facebook and email is the only things I manage well. So, please, be patient with me. I love the blog and enjoy all the pics.
I am going to try to fit some pics for you to enjoy too.
Love you all very much, Maisha
