outing in Albuquerque with Dom Marcus' parents

Two days of fun outside the monastry were granted to me by my superior and these two days were spent on an outing and a tour in downtown Albuquerque, NM with the parents of Dom Marcus.

Since Dom Marcus was still tied up with the monastery attending and entertaining his countless guests who still stayed a day after May 31st, he sought permission for me to accompany his parents to Albuquerque for two days of tour and an outing with their Filipino compatriot Myrna Samson who had been their neighbor in their province at Pangasinan in the Philippines.

The host of our two-day outing, Myrna Samson was just too willing to drive us to the city's attractions. Myrna is Dom Marcus's parents friend and neighbor at their province in Pangasinan, Philippines wayback years ago.

The outing was very relaxing and enjoyable as it gave me a chance to hang-out with Filipinos in Albuqueque and visit some remarkable landmarks in Albuquerque as well.

the replica of the cave looked so real and authentic that one would feel the cold temperature penetrating the bonemarrow
