MARCEL GOT SCHMAPPED

Oh, I'm utterly overjoyed today!  Not only that today is my engagement anniversary, but also today we found out that Marcel got Schmapped!!!  :-)


Two weeks ago, Marcel got an email from Schmap Guides Editor that his Ferry Building photo had been shortlisted for inclusion in the 10th edition of Schmap San Francisco Guide.

Today, we found out that the photo was finally selected; and the Guide just got released.

Why is this so special to me and Marcel?  Back in December when we were visiting SF, it was raining and foggy on the first day that we couldn't go out much.  The next morning when we got up, the weather was so nice and the sky was so clear.  So we decided to take a walk around and get breakfast.  I remembered looking up to the sky and pondering, "Thank you, Jesus, for letting us get up this morning and enjoy Your gift of the beautiful day!."  As we walked back to the hotel, this was the last photo Marcel took before it started to rain again that afternoon till midnight.  What a blessing we could enjoy and share!

With that, we hope that  people who utilize Schmap to plan their travel can benefit from many beautiful "favorite sights" pictures shared by the previous visitors.  As people say that a picture is worth a thousand words; for us, this picture is worth a thousand blessing!!

May this be a blessing!
