Adventures at Manila Ocean Park
I was playing with Apple’s iMovie app in my iPhone yesterday, and I found an option to create movies from Trailer templates. So I tried, and I had a few clips from our Manila Ocean Park trip last February lying around.
This movie I created for like 30 minutes or so only with my iPhone 5S and the iMovie app. Here goes:

Probably the best thing I missed about home, my Dad’s version of KBL — Kadios, Baboy (Pork), and Langka (Jackfruit), made from fresh Kadios ang Langka. To taste is to believe!
