Monopoly Sunday

We were at the Benedicto Farm yesterday in Antipolo for a joint bday celebration of our outdoor cum model pal. 95% of the guests were family members and we were the only outsiders.. Kathy's mountaineer friends.

The plan was to just have lunch and not attend the 3pm mass. But the Monopoly board game kept us busy for hours, so not only did we hear mass, and witnessed the blessing of the new building, but we even noticed that our car was the last to leave the compound. For hours we were bidding for properties, doing some trash talk, and trying to manipulate each other just to keep ourselves from getting bankrupt. By the time we left, a trickle of the city's night lights can be seen amidst the rain clouds from our vantage point.

Antipolo's still a nostalgic hillside weekend place.
