National Museum visit

So hubby and the big kids went to the National Museum last June 17 to check on some artworks as requirement for my daughter’s school project. I was resting and just too tired to join them. Here’s some of the photos that my husband took using his cellphone. (Sorry the photos doesn’t have labels and bit blurry too.)

The trio also went to the National Planetarium but they were not allowed to take pictures inside. I hope I could join them in the next visit.

The National Museum of the Philippines is located at the P. Burgos Drive, Rizal Park, Manila. It is open from Tuesdays-Sundays, 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Places to visit on Mother’s Day

It’s Mother’s Day this weekend! For those whose budget are kind of tight to treat your mom for the occasion, there are a lot of places to take you mom and the whole family for free. Besides the popular Rizal Park in Manila, Quezon Memorial Circle or the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife, you can bring the family to the National Museum. You can check their website for the schedule. For our part, we are going to check the following schedule at the National Planetarium. The last time I visited a planetarium was in Grade 3 during our school field trip.

Hopefully, the kids and I will be able to check the museum this weekend, a sort of treat to our birthday girl, Naomi. 🙂
