Sunday 16 Dec 2018 - Manila

Had a long lie in as we are still trying to catch up. Decided that we if are booking any more hostels, then it needs to be a private room - no more sharing. In with 4 teenagers last night and they weren't the quietest although we did manage to fall asleep. We have dorm to ourselves tonight so happy days. Went for a wander when we got up and had breakfast at hostel. Jack left the day up to me so I booked a cab and we went to the shopping mall. It was a good call as it was a bit more up market although very busy. After having a look around there, we found a nice restaurant where we sat and had a few beers and for me, a few cocktails. Felt a bit tipsy! Lol. Sat there til late on just taking it all in and then got a motorbike cab back to hostel. Didn't want to have a late night as we needed to be organised in the morning as flight booked to Palawan, puerto princessa at 1.45pm. Jack is such a worrier. More so than me, so he wants to be there in plenty time and to avoid getting stuck in traffic. Today we sat and had a coffee in Costa coffee. We had 2 large coffees with 3 shots and a cake and it cost no more than £4. Our restaurant bill was £25 for 5 Heineken beers, nachos, and 2 gin cocktails, and this was an up market classy place. Off to bed now but here are the photos of the day.
