A Philippina in Australia?

MELBOURNE is cosmopolitan You can see this in the street. There are not so many from the Philippines, but many arrivals from China.


The citycentre, downtown, has become

one of the focal areas of Asian food. But I think Ai will miss the Philippine language(s), her first level of expression, English always good, but less easily available for conveying that point!


But there is always the text message, the phone (!!!) and the internet.

Cheeky Lulu!

She told me,

"Wow u have a nice body on d blog dear friend!"

I know it was sarcastic!





















I know her hon!

Poor Aileen..... She's a DEVIL to friends eyes!

Today Ai took the bus to Tacloban.








The usual saturday trip. But intended to make a second visit to the ob-gyn, and to choose a bridal gown,
and to meet me on webcam via Yahoo.





She had been struggling with sickness from day to day, nearly every day. The bus journey was an ordeal.


She chose a different doctor this time, the last one did not answer questions and seemed unfriendly. So the message came through, that it was good news. Referred for blood and urine tests, but otherwise managing the pregnancy. Some medicine to reduce sickness. Plus avoid acidic foods.

On webcam, Ai looked happy. This time the breasts not much bigger, but a definite swelling of the tummy!









Baby due on 10 October!
