Musée Du Quai Branly Part 2

After our visit last week, we came back again today with some couple of friends. So here are the photos ( from last week and today ) to be share (",)
 waiting for the performances of ensemble Maguindanao and Uwang Ahadas
 they showed the traditional dance and their instruments like Gongs
 the dance of warrior? not sure hehehe
 my daughter had the chance to try one of their instruments.... ( banda rito, banda roon )
and a picture with one of the dancer ( gong! )
In connection of Bulul, we saw this selling in the market this morning ( les cousins ) :) African wooden statues. Bibingclara said, "Maman, il y a beaucoup de Bulul! " in fact she was the one who took the photo.
Today there were Culinary demonstrations first, before the dance and music performances. As i noticed, last week they're all boys and this afternoon, the turn of les girls.
 at the entrance today ( i must mind to come back again for the African exposition yes, i still have my reserve ticket for next visit )
 a quick visit to the Philippines exposition
 the chefs ( well, i took photo from far )
 ang gulay na pinagpasa-pasahan ( basils, ciboulette, citronelle, calamansi etc )
The finish product --- Tourteau de Breton, Sauce Aligué ( corail de crabe ) aux herbes fraiches, wanton croustillant --- in short Alimasag with sauce ng Aligué with herbs -- not so extraordinary yes, we sampled it.
Encornets grillée, Emulsion Adobo Noir à l'encre de Seiche, purée de chou fleur --- in short Adobong Pusit we tasted it and we got the chance also to taste the sipit ng crab ( pince de crabe )
see? but she did not finish all, of course c'était moi!
The only man in the middle ( in green ) the majority were girls  ( taken from far sorry )
after quitting the place, a photo with one of the dancer
That's how we spend our Sunday today while Claudebiko participating in the Welga ( Manifestation ) in another destination. See you again next time Musée du Quai Branly. By the way, the Philippines Exposition is still going till 14th of July (",)

Musée Du Quai Branly

Last sunday we went to Quai Branly Museum and to our surprise, free Entrance pala! why? kasi Philippines week daw. And this coming sunday, free ulit ang entrance ( here all museums is free during 1st sunday of the month ) yeah, i am planning to come back again this coming sunday to profit the exposition of our own. Actually, i bought already ticket a week ago, but i will save it for next time, i mean next time visit to Musée Du Quai Branly ;).

Spring vacation in Philippines!
 Bulul with little Bibingclara at the entree
 at the entrance of the exposition
 it was not my first time in the museum so i already seen some in the display
 my first visit was year 2008 ( Bibingclara in the belly ) it was also first sunday so no ticket entrance and priority entrance ( i mean no queue's for the pregnant lady )
 ohhh ang kwintas ng fighter ( beautiful ) asking? pede din kaya ako magsuot nito kahit di ako fighter?
 this one is also nice panglalaki! kaya nga collier de guerrier ( warrior's necklace )
 North of Luzon, Cordillera, Mountain Province ... sa sobrang bilis hindi ko na nabasa lahat ng tags dahil hindi na interesado ang aking unica hija naiinip na sya ..
 ang Miss na nagkukuwento ng mga alamat ( naalala ko tuloy nung sa elementarya ) hindi ko lang matandaan yung title nung kinukwento nya nakalimutan ko na hahaha basta merong ulap na tumaas :))))
 at ang costume ...dyaran! babalik ako kasi i didn't read all! si Bibingclara want to see the casserole nagmamadali. Bibingclara at the back with her tata jen gustong makipaglaro.
 voila ang kaserola! sorry no flash ;(
 at ang bungo sa banga woooooo
So quick the visit, i have to revisit again ang read the details. Not so easy to be with a little kid na nagmamadali at gustong lumabas. I understand, she gets bored :)
log book at the end of the visit ( she writes her name on the signing book hehehe )The comments : Magnifique exposition! and some writes Mabuhay Philippines!
i let Bibingclara do the work for dropping the filled forms ( a questionaire form to win free ticket to Phils youhoo ) normally, we should do it after the visit but since we were all excited before heading the start of the expo we already filled and dropped the form hehehe :)
in the exit, there's a little souvenir corner i just took some photos
can't resist! so i buy a bulul magnet and cards
and a book for Bibingclara as a gift that day
After the exposition, we stayed to watch the musique and dance of Maguindanao will post it in part 2 :)
