San Miguel by the Bay (Mall Of Asia’s Sunset Strip)

Monday, June 23, 2008

M anila Baywalk already died since last year, and with lesser police visibility at this time, there's no way we should visit the place again without compromising safety. So, when my girlfriend, her kid sister, friend Grace, and me had a time going out for bonding, we instead decided to go to San Miguel by the Bay (earlier known as Sunset Strip) which is located behind SM Mall of Asia and facing Manila's famous sunset. After all, we haven't been there yet in that "part of the mall."

Rain that occured earlier of the day caused an overcast skies in the afternoon. There was no sunset to admire of. Instead, it was drizzling once in a while. We toured inside the mall and when it was getting dark, we headed towards the bay. With such annoying and trying hard models (He he he), our photoshoot began. Cool Ronald Ibay, fellow MIPer and photography enthusiast, together with wife and kid, who we came across at the bay said, "Ang ganda ng mga model n'yo." The set of photos found in this page are just a few taken during the photoshoot. More photos can be viewed from my Multiply album.

    @ Ghee: I think it is new. It was my first time to visit this place...

    @ nance: Salamat. Manila was more beautiful when the Baywalk was at the height of its glory... Salamat na lang at nagkaroon ng alternative of it which is San Miguel by the Bay...

    That's sad to know that some of the places, like Manila Baywalk have deteriorated, plagued by undesirables.

    Thanks for sharing the nice pictures...and for visiting my blog.
