Malacanang Museum tour

For the first time in more than 10 years of working in the
OP, I participated in a guided tour of the old Malacanang Palace.

I had pictures taken with:

1) the original governor general�s chair at the Old Waiting
Room. Notice the crest with GG engraved. The tour guide said that
the other chairs had M engraved to indicate either Marcos or
Malacanan.

2) the executive chair where Ferdinand Marcos declared
Martial Law in September 23, 1972. I couldn�t resist although I was
reluctant to sit on it at the beginning. I thought that it might not
be able to bear my weight :)

3) the facade of the old Malacanang Palace or more
popularly known as Kalayaan Hall nowadays. Of course!
