Today is our last day in the Philippines.We leave tonight at 8:00pm. We fly to Bangkok then to Brussels and then to Montreal. We arrive Thursday afternoon around 12:30pm. It's going to be a long trip home, hopefully Manny will sleep through most of it!

Manny gets his Passport

Today we met with ICAB to get Manny's Philippine passport & visa. Manny's is cleared to leave the Philippines. They gave him a minature Philippine flag and toy Jeepney (a common Philippine bus).

We heard abou the earthquake that hit Cebu yesterday. We missed it by a day!

Shopping in Manila

We went shopping today at one of the big malls that has floors and floors of knock off designer items. Hollister, Puma, hand bags, shoes even Canada Goose winter jackets! They don't even use jackets here, it's purely for the tourists. We bought Manny shoes and clothes, most or all of the stuff I brougt from Montreal was to big. Tommorow we meet with ICAB ( international adoption board) to pick up Manny's passport and visa so we can leave on Wednesday.
