The Journey Continues: We have been given the opportunity to live in Manila for the next three years! Grace will be taking on a new role as Finance Manager and I will continue suffering as an ex-pat spouse. But seriously, I'm hoping to do some work and keep my PT brain and hands going so I don't forget everything. A great place to come and visit. We'd love to have you over or meet up somewhere in Asia.

Jeepney
It's not hard to get a picture of a Jeepney around here. They are as common as taxi cabs in Manhattan. There are certain parts of the city that they are not allowed to drive in which really helps decrease the traffic. Each can pack about 20-25 people inside and sometimes one or two people standing off the rear bumper. During the morning hours you can see long trains of Jeepneys taking people to work. They're fun to look at because a lot of them are personally decorated with different colors and messages on the outside. Kinda like graffiti on wheels. Many of them with elaborate grills in the front (i.e. Mercedes emblems). Don't think I'll ever ride one but will definitely post about it if I do.
