In the midst of cherishing some moments and captivating the nocturnal views, my mobile rang. It was Jason, a long-time friend, who offered to pick me up in his mom's shop (NEXT) right in the heart of the city and to spend some time with me. Without much ado, Jason and I set off and picked up his fiancee, Helen (not of Troy, but of Manama), and we three hit the road to Twister Club where we met some of Kuya Bong's friends in the Circle of Fashion Designers who organized that night's search for Miss Philippines-Bahrain. In the bar, I also met Terence, a close friend of my cousin Soc who used to work and make a living in the island Kingdom.

As KC had fun doing it in the flat, Odjie and I savored our small seafood pizza while waiting at the Pizza Company for Kuya Bong's friends to rig out in time for our nocturnal desert camping during the break. http://vapostoljr.multiply.com/photos/album/175/Just_Henna Wed, 30 Dec 2009 18:40:45 -0000 http://vapostoljr.multiply.com/photos/album/174/Just_Another_Bahrain_Break At the end of the Hajj (annual pilgrimage to Mecca), Muslims throughout the world celebrate the holiday of Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice). Owing to this, I had the much-needed two-week break from pressures and routines. To spend the break with some friends and my cousin, Kuya Bong, who just celebrated his nth birthday last December 3rd, I decided to hit the road to Bahrain. Fresh from Saudi, I was met by my buddy-guide, Odjie, in Mandaluyong Restaurant near Awal Hotel of Manama. The Pinoy restaurant that used to be our hang-out and energy-filling station after our 2am gigs, haplessly, just moved to another place quite a distance from where it used to be. We therefore had a short walk to Swan Lake, another fave Pinoy restaurant just within the vicinity of Bab Al Bahrain, for some fill. Then, we walked straight to Aradous Hotel to chill out with Cyclone Bar's Pinoy band, Love Child. T'was a great night with Odjie! Felt like I was in Malate or Makati! http://vapostoljr.multiply.com/photos/album/174/Just_Another_Bahrain_Break Tue, 29 Dec 2009 19:35:29 -0000 http://vapostoljr.multiply.com/photos/album/172/Trekking_Jabel_Qarah Before I went to Bahrain for our Eid Al Adha Holiday here in Saudi, my housemate, Amado from Aurora, and I together with other friends, hit the road to Jabel Qarah in Hofuf, Al Hassa where Judas Iscariot, our Lord's traitor, is believed to have hidden and hung himself as a result of his remorse over his abominable betrayal over two thousand years back. "Jabel" is an Arabic word for mountain, while Qarah is the name of that particular part of Hofuf where cream and orange rocks seem to have gathered together forming natural alleys through which the rays of the sun artistically pierce. Hence, the name Jabel Qarah. Among many Filipino expatriates here in the Kingdom, Jabel Qarah is so popular that they call it Judas' Cave. They believe that our Lord's traitor once inhabited the place before he curtailed the curse that grew in him.
