That's right.

 

The photo was taken in 1963 before the 11th World Jamboree in Greece. Our Boy Scouts never made it to Greece. Their plane went down over the Indian Ocean. The 22 Boy Scouts are commemorated in 23 streets in Quezon City.

Request lang po.... a picture of Manila Ice Plant (tama ba yung name nun?) which

was the first ice plant in Asia which once stood opposite Metropolitan Theater in

Plaza Lawton... survived World War II but not LRT beautification program....demolished

late 70's early 80's can't remember exactly...All that remains now.... isang bodega na

left unattended...should have been preserved by the National Historic commission...

Pag baba ng Quezon Bridge galing Quiapo...turn right dun sana yun..Think of what

someone's edifice complex could ruin...and erase from memory..REQUEST FOR LANG!

finally found your Insular ice plant pix (after 3yrs of searching... :lol: )
