Avatar, the Last Airbender

My kids are looking forward to watching several movies next year. One of these movies that they have been anticipating is Avatar, the last Airbender.

They have been watching Aang, the Avatar, the Last Airbender’s adventure on tv and with a dvd. This is an anime series.

Here is an official trailer of Avatar, the Last Airbender as seen in YouTube:

Ok, Aang is Asian and the actor in the movie is not. I hope this movie will not disappoint considering the wait they have to endure.

Spot What?

I know the photo looks hazy. Night shot+hand held p/s camera don’t really go quite well together πŸ˜€

Anyway, this is one of the latest hubs to go to in the heart of QC, UP-AyalaLandTechnoHub where different kinds of restaurants can be found, among others.

The place looks a bit different now that there are more shops opened.

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening

Walking is the theme for Photo Hunter and the first thing that came to mind was Robert Frost’s poem: “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”

In another PH entry is a photo of my two younger children and my husband walking hand-in-hand.

Below is a B & W photo of a wooded area that we love to go to:

I know there is no snow here but I think this is a fitting photo for my interpretation of the poem considering my geographical location πŸ˜‰

This is one of our family’s favorite Sunday destination where we can go walking in the woods and biking and even have picnic lunch on a mat.

I also used Robert Frost’s “The Road not Taken” in another PH post about roads.

Below is Robert Frost’s poem:

Basilica Minore de San Sebastian

Countless brides with their families, diamond engagement rings, exquisite gowns and dolled up entourage have walked the long aisle of San Sebastian Church or the Basilica Minore de San Sebastian which was one of the photos I featured in my Litratong Pinoy entry.

This is one church that has captured the hearts of people, whether through its design or its history or perhaps both.

This all steel church is on the tentative list of UNESCO Heritage Sites.

I am glad that we included this in our itinerary when we did our family annual Visita Iglesia during Holy Week. When the kids were asked what church made the best impact for them this church won hands down πŸ™‚

Stripes or Creases?

For this week’s STRIPES theme in Photo Hunt, I have this entry below and another entry about a flower with stripes.

I saw a photo in my archive that looks odd to me. This photo of the Hot Air Balloon Fiesta was taken last year:

Do you see the “stripes” too?
