Christmas in the Philippines

Before its too late, I wanted to get up a few pics from our Philippines Xmas.
We got to go to Marlon's school and see a nice little reenactment of the Nativity.
The Philippines version varies a bit from the one we're familiar with....two of the kings were of middle eastern origin while the third was actually Liberace.
Rose came up with the fabulous idea of dressing me up as Santa Claus.
Rose had put together dozens of plastic gift bags for the village residents and candy for the kids. The bags essentially guaranteed most of them would at least have a Christmas dinner of ramen, eggs, and tuna.
