I am fascinated and mesmerised by this city. Every sight, every sound, every smell. I think I may just be falling in love with Manila!
The heat, the fumes, the cacophony, the chaos, the vitality, the vibrancy, the spiritedness. The contrasts!
I read the following quote, and I can neither plagiarise nor equal ....'The Jeepney is the perfect metaphor for the paradox that is Manila. Is it beautiful or is it grotesque? Is it inefficient or is it entrepreneurial? Is it just a common utility or is it a progressive work of art?'
I wish I were that articulate (for your sakes!!).

| A jeepney....my first love! |

| Street markets...everywhere! |
 |
| A trike....short distance travel. |
 |
| Traffic - a typical scene! |

| Pasig river - bordered by squatter community |
