Hello and Goodbye, Manila!

This is the last part of our 1 and a half day in Manila.
♥
Good morning, Eastwood!
On our last day, we took the time to stroll around the condo.

Woke up to this polluted but still beautiful view ♥

The road is still quiet. Not much cars are passing by.

Look up!

Some of the restaurants that can be found inside Eastwood.

Quiet Eastwood.

Surrounded with tall buildings.

Jump for Joy! ♥

This view makes me think that I was in a foreign country.

With the ever generous, Ate Apple ♥

With my ever supportive and forever best friend, Christine!♥

Lunch. Mall of Asia.

We headed out to Mall of Asia (MOA) located in Pasig for lunch and to continue shopping. LOL. We were also hanging out here to wait for our flight. (source: wikipedia)

We had lunch at Gumbo.

Christine had baby back ribs with rice and french fries.

Ate Apple had this for lunch. Sorry, I forgot the name.

I had grilled pork with rice and coleslaw. The more I ate the coleslaw, the more it tasted bad.

Picture with Christine and Ate Apple after lunch. ♥

Stolled around MOA and chanced upon Zara having a sale. Bought a lovely blouse for myself.

Our trip wouldn t be complete without a box of these. ♥

Goodbye, Manila!

At around 2 pm, we were already at NAIA Terminal 3. We got checked it at around 2:30 pm.

No picture of our plane. But we boarded the plane at 3:45 pm. Got to take off at 5:10pm. Our flight was delayed by an hour.

Take off! Goodbye, Manila! Till next time! :)

Overall, my trip to Manila was as much fun as the last time I was there. The differences were, I traveled with my best friend and not with my family, and that my goal for going to Manila was to shop only. It was a fun 1 and a half day of my life. Aside from counting this as part of my birthday celebration, this was also a time to bond with my best friend who's in love by the way. Heehee.

I am so grateful to Ate Apple for arranging almost everything. From the condo we were staying at, the restaurants we went to eat, and to the shopping places she took us to! And I'd like to thank her for paying for almost everything! From dinner to taxi fare and to the condo..all of it, she paid for! I am forever grateful to Ate Apple! ♥

Thank you also to Christine who went with me. Looking forward to our next trip together! ♥
