His Trip - Manila, Clark

I don't have much to write about this trip since it was more of a working trip than a vacation. It wasn't like most of our trips before where we had all the time to tour around and explore the place. We were there more for the preparation for our wedding.

We were able to go to Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga for the Hot Air Balloon Festival but we were there just for the pre-wedding/prenuptial photo shoot. We will post some of the pictures here once we get them. I want to thank Paolo Feliciano, our photographer there. He's really a professional in his trade and he made sure we got to have the best shots for our photo shoot by getting us inside the balloon flying area.

Our trip to Manila wasn't different. We didn't have a photo shoot but we spent our 2 days there searching and buying for Chinese engagement (Ting Hun) stuff. We had to endure the crowded streets of Chinatown in Binondo, Manila to search shops selling jewelries and chinese symbolic stuffs. We stayed in Binondo Suites Hotel which is kinda rundown.  There's not much choices for hotels in Binondo since there are not so many tourist who stays in Binondo. People go there just to do business or buy some chinese foods and stuffs.

We didn't push through with Cavite since the concert was canceled a week prior. We then had to cancel our hotel booking and car rental as well. Maybe we could schedule it some other time we could go back to Manila.

I hope that we'll have some more time to tour around, explore the place and relax in our next few trips to come.
