Living in a bungalow in Makati and often spending days when outside in traffic, it is very easy to forget just how close we are to the sea. When I was a newly minted married woman, my husband and I started our family in a condominium and every day, I got to see Manila Bay… and it was lovely. I could watch the waters shimmer under the sun as boats passed by and witness the beautiful sunset on the horizon. Having seen the sun’s descent to end each day in full glory, I could agree with my elders when, growing up, they would tell me there was nothing more beautiful than the sun setting on Manila Bay.
