Day 0 - From Office To the Bus Stn

Manila Travel Blog › entry 1 of 7 › view all entries

A quick getaway over a long weekend with three great travbuddies - ted, jen and isabel. My initial plan was to make this a UNESCO site hopping. Yeap, we visited the sites but this is more than just seeing old towns and churches. For me, it is falling in love with my country one more time.

Day 0 - From Office To the Bus Stn

7:30 PM - Non-sense meeting. I don't know how many times I rolled my eyes. I don't know how many time I resisted not to yawn. We are supposed to meet at Isabetlog's place before we would go to the bus station.
8:00 PM -  I was running from one building to another, wrote a quick updates to my counterpart in the US, rushed to change clothes, quickly grabbed a dinner.
8:15 PM - I was waiting for a taxi. There was a long queue; people were bitchin' about the Friday traffic.
9:00 PM - I reached Ortigas area where I, Isabetlog and Jenneth would meet. JeAr was with Jen that time; he wanted to see us before we go for our Ilocos Trip.
9:45 PM - We reached Partas Bus Station in Cubao. There was a long queue to the ticket for the bustrip to Ilocos. People were leaving Manila because that was a long weekend.
11:00 PM - We were already seated inside the bus. I was cramped in a seat with a old lady and her small son and a guy sitting on the aisle. There were 6 people sitting on our row, including me. I am a big size and image how we fit into that. Anyway, this is my sado-wishes on my travels - I want pain, physical inconveniences. :)
