Next stop... the PHILIPPINES

It may not be fair to drag Mr. Travel Diary (MTD) out of hibernation for a quick week away, but I just don't care. It's gonna be action packed and I will reward you all with wild pics and gritty stories from the city that Rough Guide quotes 'will never be a serious tourist destination until the authorities deal with the evils of traffic and pollution; most tourists are in the capital because they have a day or two to kill either at the beginning or the end of a trip to the rest of the country'. Well not I, Rough Guide (if that is your real name). Manila will be the destination of the hour.

Stay tuned as I pack my bags and dust off the old yellow fever immunisation card for my first trip to the land of... well.. i'm not sure yet. Why not give me your ideas in the poll. The Philippines - the land of? Vote now. END.
