It was LOVE DAY and Dino and I decided to go on a little trip around Manila to become observers.
While walking around Luneta, I can’t help but smile seeing all the people celebrating V-day. Couples walking around hand in hand, hugging each other. Families having picnics, kids playing around. It’s the same feeling I get during weddings seeing how in love the couple is, their parents and families. Seeing all of them reminded me that on LOVE DAY, it’s not only about the love between man and woman, it’s about LOVE in all forms. Love of parents and kids, love of friends, and love of everything.
It was said that doves are used in weddings because when a dove finds its mate, they will stick with each other forever.
There was this blind singer and he was a hit! A lot of people were actually watching him and he was also plugging their blind massage.
Rides on Calesas around the park was also available. A family enjoying the ride passes through between the singer and the audience.
There was also this kind of off-beat “cari?o brutal” love between friends.
And some are waiting for love.
As it was love day, heart shaped balloons are on sale, talking roses and cartoon-character-shaped balloons for the kids.
I think the kid found his long lost lolo. They kinda look alike, eh? The glasses, the eyebrows, the nose, and the mustache! 🙂
And the love seat is still waiting for more lovers to enjoy some time alone.
Happy LOVE DAY! 🙂
