Clark,Manila
Clark,Manila
By Cebu pacific airways, its 3 hrs 20 mins ++ flight.Met up with a friend of mine who i get to know in Singapore,thanks to him i got free accomadation in his hometown,Pampanga. He show me how true Pinoys live. He is a singer and a gd looking chap with a nice heart.
From clark airport, you have to take a cab bout 600 pesos (s$17)to Dau. You can bargain with the counter when you step out of depature hall.With a pinoy beside you, you will get the local price. Half and hour ride, you reach Dau.There you find like an interchange,not bus interchange but jeepney interchange.There are no cab in Pampanga.Either you take jeepney or tricycle.
Jeepney is like mini bus, or even small then that.Can squeeze more than 12 passenger.Exciting but when it get crowded, trust me its irratating. The price is only 7 pesos( 21cents).You must know which jeepney to take as you may get confused. To be true pinoy, you can pass the money to the person nxt to you,and its like a chain till it reach to the driver. All you have to say is "bayard" means paying for the fare.As Phillipines used to be under the americans, the american's influence are great there.So language barrier is not a problem.Yes the driver seat are on the left....
People lead a simple life. No rush and no stress.Sing,gamble and drink are their favourite past time. There is where i was introduce to Videoke bar. There lots of them.Videoke bar are bar + karaoke.My fav videoke bar is Kayle Teatro means street of teater.Cozy and simply lovely...
CR = Care Room(Toilet)
October Feast( the whole street closed for stage performance, drink and food)
-2 days event followed by Angels day where family gather at the cementry for simply hang out.Weird but look scary to seat above dead men body.
So far i found it to be safe, but crime rate there are quite high. So be extra careful. Cheap food but to find halal food very difficult lah.But you still can find muslim staying there.I miss Pampanga~
