Luchie Maranan and I went to the grave of Ed Maranan in the outskirts of Baguio. Here is Ed’s epitaph. Luchie, Ed’s sister, brought the bouquet of flowers. I brought sandalwood incense and a Tibetan bell. In the pouring rain she and I performed a short ritual. Then we spent the rest of the day at Frangelli B&B with Lingling Maranan-Claver. These are some of the photos taken as we toured the villa.
The photos show the garden at Frangelli, the project of Lingling Maranan-Claver, in Baguio City about 5 hours by car north of Manila. Baguio City is the Summer Capital of the Philippines. It’s where many Filipinos go to escape the heat in the city.
