A Filipina friend I met online invited me to a concert held this evening in Mesquite. It’s charity event for the church and I thought I should go see it. Besides, I haven’t been to Fil-Am (Filipino-American) gatherings with live performances before. I arrived at the venue a little earlier than my friend so I took a sightseeing for a bit.
Half price book sale. But donations accepted.While waiting for my friend to arrive, I took photos of the ticket area.The church’s yard.The event hall. Filled with decorated tables and chairs. Ready for dining.The stage.Yours truly waiting for a company so we can start eating dinner.
When my friend arrived, we picked a table in front then we head on and got some food.
What I got for dinner? Chicken mechado, menudo, adobo, rice, and a slice of bagel.For dessert: Leche flan, mini cakes, and strawberries.The first performer. She’s not one of The Three Is Magic singers.The second performer. Not with The Three Is Magic singers either.The Maharlika Dancers performing the Singkil dance.Maharlika Dancers performing the Pandango sa Ilaw dance.Alright! So here’s the first singer from The Three is Magic. My friend (on the far left) who invited me to the concert was up there. I didn’t know she was one of the back-up singers.I got the chance to have my photo taken with the third performer. He sang oldies songs popularized by Frank Sinatra, Engelbert Humperdinck, and Neil Diamond. My favorites were: “The Way You Look Tonight”, “The Last Waltz”, “Sweet Caroline”. And he gave roses to all the women in the room. Sweet!I guess they are the officers?
The second singer of The Three is Magic is a young lady. I wasn’t able to take her photo because I had to go to the powder room. Anyway, it was a successful event as well as fun and enjoyable. I got to meet my online friend in person.
Driving home at nine o’clock in the evening from the concert by myself wasn’t so difficult. Good thing I had my mobile phone with me. I called my husband letting him know that I’m on my way home. Cell phone is a great travel companion you know. I don’t like traveling alone at night though.
Like everything else, we want all the things in our lives to be safe and hassle-fee. As we travel along the road of life, assurance of what great comfort in the future is what we are looking forward to.
Well, I am saying this because we always make things easy by insuring valuable things like our cars, homes, and our lives. But how about the travel gadgets like the iPhone or iPad? Since they have become the trend in electronic gadgets nowadays, we consider these devices as one of our valuable possessions. Is there a way we can get a Gadget Insurance? We can get these insured if we want to. Hhmmm..I wonder how it works?
Documenting your travels is not as difficult as the previous years’ use of manual cameras. I owned a manual camera where I had to buy films (which are still used today) and disposable batteries. Though I admire the captures of a manual camera, there are convenient features a digital camera has that I like better. And I do not have to replace batteries more often.
I like taking pictures while traveling . I bet you are too. If you are on the road as a travel photographer and you require more quality output, an on-location camera rental is available. And if you are exploring the State of Florida, Camera Rental Miami can provide you the high-tech digital equipment for your photography needs. This is also a good suggestion for those who are into doing some photography projects in school.
Ordinary travelers like me can also take advantage of renting cameras (in case if we forgot one or lost it). Photos and videos of our vacation and adventures in the magnificent places in the world are the most valued keepsakes. They can be passed on from one generation to another, which makes them really like a treasure. High quality photos and videos will last long.
