... it. The next day I woke up around noon and immediately felt the cost to my health from the fun of the night before. It didn't stop me from going shopping though and Lisa and I decided to make our way to Green Hills mall. I had first discovered Green Hills by using Google, but the owner of Friendly's and some of the long term guests confirmed that it was one of the best and cheapest places to shop for souvenirs in the city. We decided to try and get ...
Manila, Luzon, Philippines aaronpolarbear... website and we were denied. About a week before coming to the Philippines we decided to try again and now it worked out. Unfortunately since we were now only booking the tickets two weeks in advance, we could only find cheap tickets to Kalibo and they were no longer free. Still, at 6,872 pesos we were able to obtain two return tickets that would allow us to spend a week on one of the world's best beaches. At CDN $45 for each direction, these tickets were still a ...
Manila, Luzon, Philippines aaronpolarbearI'm still in Manila right now. My trip starts in 2 weeks, and I'm still undecided regarding my return trip. I have to decide when I should come back home and from where, and book the flight, too. It's because Philippine immigration requires a return ticket before they let Filipinos out of the country. Yeah, it sucks. Nevertheless, I'm so psyched for this trip ...
Makati, Luzon, Philippines jear... reviews online... Went to my room, threw my **** on the worn bed and went to the closest bar to get a drink (and thaw my nuts out). After about 28 steps out the front of the hotel, I got my first beer (a San Miguel). After a tasty beer, some thawing and listening to 3 Brits from England the next table over talk about the game of Criket, I took a short walk around then back to my room to sleep....finally!

Manila, Luzon, Philippines walie98... family... Maybe you remember my trip to Thailand last year where I was in the middle of a company party out of nothing? Similar situation, but without Karole and much less alcohol ;-) Anyway, it was a great fun :-) Today I learned that you can get breakfast in the middle of the night - even if it consists only of 2 cups of coffee and 1 slice of dry toast. At 05:45 Kerstin & Brian picked me up for the flight to Cebu, hotel Shangri-La...
Manila, Philippines michael77... Everyone applauded and I felt like an embarrassed superstar. The bus was finally able to leave. First destination: Gong Bei port. This is a customs area where people queue up to formally enter Mainland China. Our tour guide warned us of pickpockets, scalpers, and beggars who constantly prey on gullible tourists, so I made sure that my wallet was safely hidden. I've always hated this immigration stamping ritual; especially at the way foreign immigration officials treat traveling ...
Manila, Philippines jockey_8128... US are not at the same level of poor as many of these people. We stopped for dim sum so I could sample some foods, in particular the chicken feet since I said I had never tried them and could never figure out what there was to eat on them. The chicken feet (also called addidas because they resemble the Addidas logo) were cooked in a sauce until the skin just falls off into your mouth. I don't think there's actually any meat, just the skin covering the ...
Manila, Luzon, Philippines rjdemp... muggers. This came only one day after another Australian was found in Angeles after being murdered, chopped up and stashed in a suitcase..... It can get a bit rough out there, but it's far too easy to get carried away by the headlines. The Philippines has a bit of an image problem, but I love it here and so do most other visitors. It's one of the friendliest countries I've ever visited and one of the most beautiful ...
Manila, Luzon, Philippines jonnymatthews... Spirit of the USAaaaaaaaa" as they exhaled to see who could say it the longest time. Thank goodness we were sitting in the far back of the place away from the stage where it was filled up with smoke. There were a lot of smokers in that place. There are a lot of smokers in the Philippines in general. I guess not having restrictions where you can smoke doesn't help lessen the smokers nor the frequency of their smoking of smokers. My eyes were tearing and my head was light ...
