I bring forth pearls from the South

In Zamboanga, there are several natural pearls turned into accessories.



I bought plenty as pasalubong for my relatives, including a free bracelet from the vendor.


My cousin Sally is a collector and also her friend, Len from Cebu.


To test the authenticity of pearls, Sally just had to bite into each bud.

More Food at SM Bacoor

My order at Gerry's Grill, Batchoy

Looking for Alfred's iPod led to a hearty lunch at Gerry's Grill.

Rich and tasty Tahong

Then, we looked for pasalubong for Cora at Celine.



Lace brought Anya books and legends.





Then, off to the grocery to get my Tempura Sauce and Tocino mix to try back in Cragieburn.
