Manila, Philippines






It was misty and hot when the ship docked before 7 am.We were greeted by a group of dancers/drummers in colorful costumes. Mike was the first passenger off the ship, as he wanted a specific t-shirt from the vendor on the dock. Of course they didn't have his size.....XL! Sizes are different here. After breakfast we took the shuttle to a mall and walked around. It felt like we were at Fashion Square.
We bused back to the arrival of many of the crew families. It was crew day onboard the ship. Some crew changes......losing some of our favorites and meeting new friends.
The city is crowded with traffic and people everywhere on the street. Mike's favorite type of transportation is call a Jeepny. A kind of bus that looks like a long jeep and they are all decorated.

  1. We need a Jeepny for Team 777 at Bonneville. We can paint it orange and blue and the whole team can fit in it.
