Care Walking With Me On A Bridge?

If you live in Angeles City (Philippines) and you're coming from South, you'll definitely pass by Abacan Bridge if you'll go malling at SM Clark or visiting the Clark Special Economic Zone. I've long been bugged by a friend to one day walk along the long bridge with him just for fun. I vehemently opposed the idea right away. Its been a year of convincing.

One unfortunate night, I gave in. We had to attend a party at a friend's house which is a few blocks away from the bridge. After the party, we decided to take a walk until we reach the street's corner. Seeing how close the bridge is to where we were standing, he dragged me into walking on that bridge! It was so humiliating at first but while walking, I realized how exciting life can be if you expose yourself to little uncertainties. I never let the moment pass without a picture of course.

Here's how the bridge looks like. Its historic and have long history of being repaired as it survived so many natural disasters including Mt. Pinatubo's eruption in 1991 where it almost split in half! (just exaggerating).

Looks like Christmas. Very pretty. I have a cousin in California I'm trying to talk into seeing her mother's side of the family ..down that way, but I don't think she'll go. Well, she is expecting a baby in Feb.

Thanks for the note.
