Was there for 3 weeks over xmas and new year,my wife has family in Quezon City,i spent a couple weeks at Edsa Shangri-la,hung out with her family (all million of them) and went to Boracay for a week (over new year).
No interest in reps there but i wore my bling SA the whole trip,though i'm told i was crazy to do so... ,did alot of drinking (as usual),alot of poverty of course,different lifestyle then what i'm use to here in Canada,but interesting. The traffic and pollution in the city is unreal though,i will never complain about driving here again.
Boracay was nice,stayed at Monaco Suites,nice. Sat on the beach outside the Sur hotel alot on Boracay beach,went on a boat cruise and went by that skinny little boxer's house (they love that guy),had a great display on new years eve,lots of fireworks along all the hotels on the beach.
Rambling here,the trip was different for sure,the flight too long but i will go again probably next xmas.
I leave you with this,try some "Balut",i watched a couple guys eat these "eggs",the most disgusting thing i've ever seen...
Yum....
And in all its glory.....
Enjoy your trip....
