I guess I'll have to wait until Derek is a bit older to describe the history of the Philippines and the legacy of a dictator that would rather build a summer palace of decadence rather than care for the his countrymen. Years later, the palace has been returned to the people as a public park (unfinished and dilapidated, its a bit of symbol of the disfunction of a Marcos' rule). Anyway, Dek only noticed there was a pineapple - this is pre-Spongebob era. He sure loved playing in the "pina".
