Fancy a Yellow Taxi?


Yesterday I was able to go home early because our client moved their office to Mandaluyong and it is too ridiculous to go back to the office when it is already 5:30pm.

The plus side of the new office is that we can go home early but the downside is the commute. There are plenty of tricycles passing by but no cab. It's even harder when you have a pregnant officemate who you obviously can't force to ride a tricycle.

It's a good thing we have the high-end airport cabs. Meter starts at Php 70 and every 300 meters is a Php 4 increase in the fare. (Normal cab of Php 30 flag down rate and Php 2.50 per additional) comparing the yellow cab to the normal cabs, yellow cabs are more spacious, looks new and the driver of the yellow cab we flagged down was kind. Never mind the +Php 60-80 on top of the normal fare. Most white cabs will ask for extra anyway.

So the next time I'll ride a cab, i will definitely watch out for the yellow airport cabs.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Around Manila: Exploring the streets of J.P. Rizal in Marikina

It is funny how we know the history and culture of a land we do not live in yet know so little about where we live. Thus, began our mission to explore Manila, one city at a time. DESTINATION: Marikina Starting Time: 11am End Time: 5pm How to get to J.P. Rizal in Marikina - Waze (app) and Google Maps Marikeno (native people in Marikina) are said to be the most disciplined people in the Philippines. If the cleanliness around Marikina were a testament to that, Marikenos would pass with flying colors. The streets I could say were similar to those in Singapore - free from litter and we saw people from households cleaning their own front area even if it were facing a street. SHOE CAPITAL of the Philippines Marikina produces 70% of the shoes in the country. and holds the World's Largest Pair of Shoes, recognized by the Guinness World Records. In Marikina, you can find the Shoe Museum which houses 800 out of the 3000 shoes that were part of the famous shoe collection of the
