Blog #16: back in Manila. Again.

Hi.   Just arrived in Manila, checked in, and Stinky Bobbie just had a looong hot shower, a nice meal, and is resting up.

The last thirty minutes of the flight was a real doozey.   Seems there's a tropical cyclone.   It's just leaving the country, actually, so I'm gonna miss it. What a coincidence - last time I was here there was one, too.

Anyway, I'm down on the ground safe n sound.   Feeling clean n rested, snug as a bug in a rug in the huuuge bed they have here, and surfing on the free internet.   Got my office clothes out, and my new cocktail dress in the wardrobe bag ready for later. It's from the rack, but I think it's a pretty nice dress. Nice shoes, too.

Just wanted to check in.   Car's coming by in a while, so I'll talk to you later.

p.s. sorry for re-using an old graphic...

I've been to Manila

Sort of. :) On a flight from Taipei to Honolulu, we had to stop at Manila for repairs. They wouldn't let us out of the plane, though. We just sat there for 2.5 hours but glad of it.

Seems there was this gremlin on the wing pulling up pieces of metal.... I thought I was the only one who saw him until we stopped for the repairs and gremlinicide. :)

Hugs,
Erin

Sorry you'll miss...

Sorry you'll miss a White Christmas, this year... :-) I lived on Guam for two years and there, Santa went around in a Carabo cart (Carabo = Water Buffalo there).

Hope you have as much fun there, this time, as you did last - and enjoy your Tuesday... (Enjoy your time, in the fast lane. :-)
