Hot and sunny Manila

I touched down in Manila y'day afternoon, immediately i could feel the difference. It was DIFFERENT. The airport is not new, though not tattered, and the baggage system isnt fast, though not too slow, the weather is hot and dry and dusty, though not unliveable. I guess I'm (Singaporeans) are too 'pampered' at home.

We are so used to living in a clean and neat env, where everything works in order, with trains and buses connecting us to every part of the city, and fully air-con. I guess we are too accustomed to the life at home. Hence I must say I still haven fully adjusted to Manila.

Its not a bad city la, just different from SG. The food is also different, i miss local fare at home, or maybe i haven seek out the better food here yet. Tonight i must make sure i go and source out food, i haven been eating much since y'day lunch.

I will post my pics once i find a chance to take. for now, just to let everyone knows: I have arrived safely in Manila, but i miss home.
