Aloha Everyone,
According to today’s weather forecast, it was to be 50% chance of rain by noon. This is due to super typhoon Usagi passing close to Metro Manila.J.J. was optimistic that there will be 50% that it would not rain. So off we walked to BGC High Street to run a couple of errands.
At 11:30am, it was not yet raining. But the humidity was so high that we took a taxi back to our hotel. The taxi driver asked 150 peso, more than double the metered price. He was a happy man. As we got off, a potential rider came into the cab.
The two of us crossed the street to Mitsukoshi Mall for lunch. Heavy rain poured shortly after we sat down in a Chinese restaurant. Streets were inundated and there were water puddles on sidewalks but we were able to avoid rain by lingering after our lunch.
Dinner at Italianni’s located in Uptown Mall.
Healthy, delicious meals and with a 32% discount (20% for seniors, 12% VAT). We will probably dine once a week.
Purchased 3 more mangoes.
Aloha -- Cathi
