DO IT YOURSELF - HOW TO COMMUTE FROM AVENIDA/ PASAY/ CUBAO TO DMIA ( CLARK )


Just go to their terminal located in Pasay, Cubao and Avenida, I heard though that some conductors don't give change  ( not verified) so to be safe just prepare the exact fare going to your particular destination. Sorry I don't have the fare matrix yet. I usually ride via Philtranco in Megamall going to Clark, but this is a welcome addition, if you live near one of their terminals.

MRT AND LRT FARE WILL INCREASE BEGINNING MARCH 2011


MRT AND LRT FARE WILL INCREASE BEGINNING MARCH 2011

In March, the MRT and the LRT would charge an P11 boarding fee. Passengers would also be charged an additional P1 for every kilometer that would result in a three-denomination fare matrix of P15, P20 and P30 for single-journey tickets on both the LRT and MRT lines.

The current fares are P12 to P15 for LRT 1 and 2, and P10 to P15 for MRT.

LRT 1 runs from Baclaran in Parañaque City to Roosevelt in Quezon City; 
LRT 2, from C. M. Recto Avenue in Manila to Barangay Santolan in Pasig City; and MRT, from Taft-EDSA in Pasay City to North Avenue in Quezon City.

Fly One, Fly All, Fly Free!


Fly One, Fly All, Fly Free!

The Facebook application is not up yet, neither are the Mechanics (Maybe on January 12 or 13), but we got the details courtesy of Techie.com.ph. Now, for step-by-step details to this promotion, click here.


What if you could fly 149 Facebook friends to any destination for free? That would be awesome, right? You'd be their hero. The ground you walk on would be worshipped. Guess what, wishful thinker? Cebu Pacific Air is giving you (assuming you're a Philippine resident) the chance to make your dream come true starting tomorrow when it launches its "Fly One, Fly All, Fly Free" Facebook contest. You only need to:

  • Like Cebu Pacific's Facebook page;
  • Install the contest app on Facebook by searching "Fly Juan";
  • Create a flight as a host (but you may also join an existing flight as a guest);
  • Register; and be the first one to get all 149 FB friends to "check in" on his or her flight.

Flying 149 people from Manila to destinations like Cebu, Davao, Singapore, and Hong Kong? That's like being with your whole family plus your barkada and their girlfriends'/boyfriends' pamilya's friends. You can travel together on March 8, 2011 (Cebu Pacific's 15th anniversary) and return any day from March 9-15. Of course, you'd have to take care of your own accommodations, kiddo. There's no such thing as sobrang sinusuwerte for most of us.

Minute Maid Pulpy Goddess


http://www.facebook.com/MinuteMaid.ph

I just drank a bottle of Minute Maid Pulpy. They say it’s got ‘no preservatives added’. Aw, c’mon…It’s bottled juice. Is that even possible? So I thought maybe... a fresh Mango Orange were squeezed into the bottle because I swear I could taste its pulpy goodness!!! Oh so yummy!

I didn’t believe it the first time I heard it’s got no preservatives added.  So I read the ingredients (even the fine print) and everything checked out! It really has NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED!  That means it doesn’t have ingredients that may turn out to be allergens, or worse...carcinogens!  Whew! Now that’s healthy goodness that tastes so good, I... make sure I have my daily dose of Minute Maid wherever I am be it in China, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand , Brunei or traveling around the Philippines.

So okay, it’s got no preservatives added. That’s really good, right?  Not just because it doesn’t have those icky, harmful ingredients, but it also means... it is freshly squeezed and has the healthy goodness of fruits that makes one lives healthier and longer!

So far anyone who still has a hard time believing that Minute Maid has got no preservatives added - meaning it's THAT natural, it's almost like it's plucked straight from the tree, it's just as Mother Nature wanted your orange juice to be, it's got nothing but the good stuff yes, none of those potentially toxic stuff that can harm your brain, kidneys, heart; cause tumors aargh- the list of preservatives' bad effects just go on!!! Anyway, just to prove a point on just how good Minute Maid Pulpy is 'cause it's got NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED, I'm gonna drink my 3rd liter of Minute Maid Pulpy Mango Orange for the day! It is simply delicious!

I am so addicted to its refreshing pulpy goodness taste, that when I was in Bangkok, Thailand last week, the Thai attendant @ the supermarket gave me a Minute Maid the moment he saw me:-) not that he saw a signage on my forehead but because, he overheard me looking for a Minute Maid.

What are you waiting for? Go grab your Minute Maid fix!

Be healthy be merry, drink a Minute Maid today!

Feels good to know about the real pulpy deal, right? C’mon show me a smile on the comment box, and you might win yourself a Really Pulpy Deal! (That’s a chance to win a Minute Maid gift pack simply by commenting. Sweet! C'mon you just might be picked as the lucky 'commentor'!)

Love,

Traveller on a Shoestring

DO IT YOURSELF - HOW TO COMMUTE TO WAT PO VIA RIVER TAXI


newly opened River City Mall

From the newly opened River City mall, we walked towards the back of Shangri-la Bangkok.

We then turned right to the alley going to the Central Pier -  Si Phraya station.


We waited for the orange flag river taxi and paid 14 baht each then disembarked @Tha Thien.


We walked past a public market selling dried fish like those found in Tabuan in Cebu. 
Softdrinks and water is cheaper @ the small eatery in front of the gate of WAT PO. Coke cost only 20 baht against 25-30 baht selling price by the vendor near the pier.
After drinking Coke, ( my first after 6 months of abstinence) we crossed the road then entered the gate of WAT PO. 
That's when I realized I lost my LUMIX Original Battery ( sigh) I retraced my steps and found nothing, so I guessed I lost it somewhere between the pier and the gate. I moved on. And happily pose for pictures inside WAT PO. There is an entrance fee of 50 baht.
