Day 1 of the holidays was actually not too different from the week-ends in the past 4 weeks - lots of food, lots of activities, but this time I could share it with Steffen, whom I had picked up at the airport at midnight: breakfast in Flying Pan, saying good-bye to Sindhu, Jörg and Michelle, visiting Salcedo Market, driving through the city (traffic was actually quite good today), walking through Intramuros, stopping by in the Greenbelt/Glorietta shopping mall, getting lost in there, accidentally ending up at the R2R mini shop and finally buying my R2R bag (the navy blue mini buslo), eating Pomelo-Shrimp salad at People's Palace, having a great dinner at Wildflour wih nice people (DJ + wife, Caroline + brother). Plus, we discovered a Thai massage place (7 €/hour) close to the hotel, which was really really good (why did I only discover it the last day?!). Tomorrow early morning we'll be off to Dumaguete!
(Pictures to follow - moved to a new hotel really close to the airport to save a bit of time tomorrow morning and the wifi connection is pretty bad and limited to one device only so I can't copy the iPhone images over - I already miss Citadines!)
