A jeepney in Manila. These are the local buses

02/25/18 Resting in Manila

The party at the neighboring school went on until the early morning hours. Therefore, there wasn't much sleep to be had that night either. Despite the lack of sleep, I was awake much too early in the morning. The breakfast was very simple but good. There were scrambled eggs and butter rolls, along with black tea.

After breakfast, I decided to take it easy since my cold was still bothering me. So I enjoyed the peace and quiet on the balcony and took another nap around noon.

In the afternoon, I decided to explore the city a bit. I made my way to one of the largest shopping centers in the city. The Greenbelt Super Mall. Over 250 shops, several cinemas, and a huge selection of restaurants. For dinner, I had a simple pizza before heading back to the accommodation.

Once there, I enjoyed the peace and quiet on the balcony before going to bed. But I couldn't really fall asleep again today. Tomorrow we'll continue by plane to the south of the Philippines, to Cebu.
