Manila, Queen of the Pacific
A short 10-minute clip of the way we were back in the 1930's.Yeah I know! I felt a tinge of sadness and disappointment watching this footage of now lost glory because of war and for the most part neglect by you know who.
Imagine if we didn't have war back then...and now.
I still do remember riding the "kalesa" back in the days. So relax, soul-refreshing, romantic and pure.
Sigh...sigh...sigh...

It's very nice; like a time machine . . . It's so wonderful to see how our grandparents/great grandparents used to live and dressed up. I never imagine Pasig River was like that before. Same thing with Intramuros and th others. It's really very informative. Amazing that someone had done this film for us and the future to appreciate.
basta ako ang natatandaan ko pa noong elem tayo ay kay ka yayong ako sumasakay( siya lang ang alam kong may karetela noong araw)pag-uwi sa hapon.
