Heyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaa !!!! Woop Woop I\u2019m back from Manila, in very good spirits ! Philippinos are a friendly bunch, fact, on the other hand, your traffic su*** major hell. ahah. But it was all very interesting sights in the end. I have fallen in love with those chrome buses (check out the pictures below). I think they\u2019re total BLING, just like my FACEcard. I\u2019m also addicted to mayhem in city centers, and for that matter I had plenty and even leftovers ! Electric cables running everywhere, bikes with 8 people riding on, buses that look like spacecrafts, flyovers tangled with each other spaghetti style. I got what I wanted. A true layover with enough happening around the hotel so I could walk out the air-conditioning and feel the vibe. After meeting up with SFS, Roberta and the captain for a tasteful Tha\u00ef buffet round the corner, we headed for some well-deserved San Miguel (this is the beer) at the hotel bar. It\u2019s 8 hours flying, so you\u2019re pretty much ready for some nicotine, malt & hops by the time you get out of the uniform\u2026 After a 13 hours sleep, a quick update on news \u201cOnnllyy On CNN\u201d and a good shower I was off for some good old shopping. Didn\u2019t go insane at all Mum\u2026 Just got a brand new Bench watch with dual time. I was getting annoyed not knowing the time back home so I came across this trendy watch, yet within the Emirates Grooming Standards. It has dual time meaning, it shows two displays, one for your home country (ie Dub-Dub), and another to display the time in the country your visiting. It\u2019s extremely practical and would advise it to anyone travelling around good ol\u2019 mother Earth. That\u2019s all I got. Grabbed something to eat and it was time to get changed.<\/p>\n

Of course this wasn\u2019t the end. We had to hop back to Dubai. The flight was again full, 385 passengers in Economy and 42 in Business class. It\u2019s alot, believe me. You only realise how many people these aircraft carry when you stand on the ramp to say goodbye. It\u2019s a never ending flow\u2026 And saying \u201cbuh-bye\u201d to 400 people within 5 minutes takes some effort, believe me !<\/p>\n
Anyways, that\u2019s not the point. During cruising, the ride got bumpier, with turbulence and us Cabin Crew fighting gravity to have those trays delivered without having to crouch down to pick up the fallen cutlery or spill drinks over a passengers head. At one point Captain came on the PA (Passenger Announcement) and ordered to take our seats. If you\u2019re travelling, and you hear \u201cCabin Crew Take Your Seat\u201d, this means, you\u2019ll be on a rollercoaster anytime soon. That\u2019s why cabin crew will stop whatever they\u2019re doing, even if they\u2019re about to serve the meal you\u2019ve been waiting for ages and you\u2019re starving, but for our safety and yours ultimately, we need to sit down, relax, and hold onto our Cart. Another PA will be heard saying something along the lines of \u201cCabin Crew realeased for duty\u201d. This means we\u2019ll resume our service, and check on damage and\/or injuries.<\/p>\n
The rest of the flight was a breeze. Next flight is a Paris flight. So I\u2019m hoping on seeing my loved ones. Request for cheap cigarettes cartridges will not be accepted, I\u2019m sorry Anthony, but I don\u2019t know you, and I have limited amount of space in my suitcase. As you can imagine\u2026 Again I\u2019d like to thank Colon (what a strange nickname\u2026), Anthony, Jihan<\/a>, Melissa<\/a>, Paul & Andres from Facebook for their emails and support. I really appreciate\u2026<\/p>\n That\u2019s all from me, I shall now close my eyes, take a nap and let you discover a those pictures if you haven\u2019t seen them yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Heyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaa !!!!
