An afternoon in San Manuel, Pangasinan
Monday, 29 October 2012
This hut is such a good idea. It is a good place to relax or sleep on a hot day or night! Definitely not so when there are lots of mosquitoes.
And that is exactly what the children did - play cards
My sister had the opportunity to have a massage.

Majoha Hotel, Urdaneta
Monday, 29 October 2012
Only after having stayed in this hotel for a week, my sister and I found that there is a paradise at the back of the our building. There were rooms, at the back of our building that cost the same as what we were paying. And there is a swimming pool as well! We would have love to stay in these rooms because they are away from the busy noisy street. However, these rooms have to be booked in advance. If I ever visit Urdaneta again, I know what I should do then.

Baguio
Sunday, 28 October 2012
I have not been to this mountain resort city. Thanks to Vi, Gina and her brother who took us to visit Baguio for the day. We took the cheepney to the bus station and then took the bus to Baguio. One day is too short to enjoy the places of interest as we had to be on the road, in the cheepney or the taxi or the bus.
Mines View Park
Malaysian chilli
I thought that was funny to name this flower as Malaysian Mums. I didn't know that chrysanthemum is often called as mums! I have not heard that flower being addressed as mums. Now I know. When I say "mum" I mean my mother.
Good Luck Money Maker?????

Philippines, Here I Come Again!
1st visit was to Manila city in 1981.
Street Food Stall. For 20PHP, my sister and I had our breakfast of rice and 2 meat dishes.
Thank God for fast food restaurants like Kentucky Fried Chicken, Jollibee, Mc Donald and convenient store like Seven Eleven, otherwise my Aussie brother-in-law will be starved as he doesn't care for Asian food.
Mall Food Stalls. That was where we had breakfast before we ventured to the street stalls. Simple meal of rice and 2 meat dishes or vegetable dishes would cost around 100PHP.
Chinese restaurant. We paid 2015PHP for a dinner for 8 persons. I think it is too expensive for the kind of food that we ordered.
Well.... like any other cities, depending on your budget and taste, you have the choice of eating at air-conditioned restaurants or street stalls.
2nd visit was to Manila city again in 2006.
This was my 3rd visit (22-30 October) but it was to Urdaneta city (in the province of Pangasinan), 116 miles from Manila. The bus ride was about 5 hours.
My first posting is on the food, which my sister and I enjoyed very much, as both of us were missing authentic Asian food!
