Today, the Philippines lost a national treasure. Cory Aquino helped lead a revolution that restored democracy and the rule of law to our nation at a time of great peril.

Our nation will mourn her passing.

History was thrust upon her when her noble husband was cut down in the prime of his life as he fought for democracy and the rule of law. She picked up the standard from the fallen warrior, Ninoy, and helped lead our nation to a brighter day.

I am announcing today that we will officially observe a ten day period of national mourning.

Our hearts go out to the family in this hour of grief and sorrow. The nation prays for Cory and her family.

While browsing you tube I came across this message of Madam Cory to her sweet daughter Kris. Kris is one of her favorite child maybe because she’s the youngest daughter in the family. She’s sweet, talented and very smart in her talk show with Boy Abunda. They become popular with high rating in their show. Also, I’m proud of Cory, she’s not only the best mother to all her children but she’s a good mother in our beloved country. She become the mother of democracy. To our Ex-President and our tita Cory, thank you so much for being a good mother. We are proud of you and we will never forget you.

I was at Niagara Falls last week together with my daughter Agring, her kid Abby, son in law our driver and my other daughter Norm. Every summer we visit this amazing Niagara Falls. It’s my daughter who took this picture and I want to share to all of you. It’s a breathtaking view of the Niagara Falls during early summer. This authentic Niagara Falls found at the border between the United States and Canada. There are three big waterfalls: the Horseshoe Falls sometimes called the Canadian Falls, the American Falls and the smaller Bridal Veil Falls. It’s very wide, the most visited and popular waterfalls in the world.

The first picture is the Canadian Falls and the second is the American Falls. That awesome bridge belongs to Canada and USA. The left side is for Canada while the right side is for USA. The place there is Buffalo USA. If you want to go to the other side you need valid passport of visa. It is really needed to cross that bridge.

On my way home, I saw these two dogs playing and running at the park. They are so healthy and so adorable. I tried my best to zoom the camera and capture even if I’m too far from them. I felt shy when the owner saw me taking pictures of his dogs. I stop for a while and continue when he did not look at me. I hope he will not get angry if he saw his dog in the internet. His nice person and sure he will not get mad. By the way, the owner of the dogs lives not far from us we are neighbors actually.
