Wheels of Happiness

Angono, Rizal  Philippines   | April 3, 2015

                             Last church to be visited was in San Roque.Marikina City.  Recyclists pose with Fr. Nante Tolentino, cousin of Hanah (pamangkin ni Smith)  He even blessed us with Holy Water and our bikes

We had the annual ritual of doing the Bisikleta Iglesia (visit of 7 churches) to do the Way of the Cross as a form of penitential sacrifice.  However, instead of visiting churches at the Eastern Rizal, the group, decided c/o Pres Luis and adviser VM to go westward and towards MM.  So the FB page said we assemble at 5:30 am and leave for the Visita Iglesia:   Taytay, Cainta, Manggahan, Padre Pio, Sta Clara, Concepcion and Church of the Abandoned in San Roque Marikina City

Did you notice this on the way up to Bugarin? Gift wrapping the mango fruits?

Wheels of Happiness

Merry Christmas to one and all.

 

                                   I thought these were Christmas decors?!

As I biked  up to Bugarin today, I noticed something unusual, past KM 61 and approaching KM 62. The manggahan.  The growing mango fruits were wrapped in paper bags. And there were thousands and thousands of them.

Curious, I asked what is happening from the persons near the mango trees.

Well they say they are doing that to protect the fruits from insects which destroys the fruits.  It costs P0.25 each to cover the fruits.  One package contains l00 paper bags, for a deal of P25.00.  Young boys from Cebu and Bohol are doing this job.   Now we know!

                                Those dropped paper bags are paid

                                   One pack is 100 pcs and each worker gets P25.00 per pack
