LOL Marife seems to like blue cars too. My truck is blue and my little car is "fire engine" red. Evidently there is some sort of superstition about the color red in the Philippines or the region where she is from. What she'd really like for herself is a small motorcycle or scooter.
It is amazing how calm she is when I drive...I'll burn out, do bootleg turns, you name it and she just sits back calm and relaxed. I'll ask her if she is OK and she will reply, "Sure, that's nothing. I'm from the Philippines."
))) She likes to ride in her brother-in-law's Lincoln. Her sister and her ride in the back and I like to tease them, saying that they are Filipina movie stars. They sink into the well padded seats until they are barely visible through the window and are soon fast asleep. LOL She is not really into cars and can't usually tell them apart. But I laugh whenever she says that a car is cute, because it seems it is usually a Mercedes, Lexus, or a similar auto. I tease her, telling her she has expensive taste. ;o))) She still hasn't noticed that every time I drive past the Lamborghini and Ferrari dealerships...I drool! 8oP My favorites...RED of course!
