We woke up around 10am after a great nights sleep. Jack went to have a shower and the water was cold!! This is a pet hate of his as we were constantly having cold showers in Thailand last year but put it down to the fact we were roughing it in hostels. Lol. So after a birdy bath we headed out for breakfast and a wander to see what was happening. Definately not our kind of place. It is a very seedy place with prostitution everywhere. Even the young girls were blatantly walking about with numbers pinned to them. Clubs, parlours everywhere and young young girls trying to attract the men. They all look pretty, but horrible to see old men walking about with them. We saw this in Thailand but seems a hundred times worse here. Wandered for most of the day and stopped in and out of cafes for coffees and beers to keep us hydrated. Weather cloudy but very warm at 30°. Had some rain late on at tea time so headed back to hotel for a quick wash and then back out to get food and a few drinks. It's quite cheap too. We bought coffee, juice, water, beers, and crisps in a local shop and it cost about a fiver.
Pizza and subway roll for dinner
A few beers later and a couple of gins then headed back to hotel around 11pm. Way past our bedtime! Was worth the visit but Definately not a nice place to stay in. Certainly opens your eyes to the reality of these people's lives and the need to make money.
Alarm set for 8am as we have a bus to catch to Manila. Hopefully....Lol
