Travel Day 859 – Makati, Manila, PHILIPPINES It was about time to see a little bit more of Manila and after being inside the whole day yesterday, today was a day of outdoor market places… Luckily I had called it a somewhat early night yesterday after we started already at 4pm in the afternoon with […]
Travel Day 858 – Makati, Manila, PHILIPPINES It was the big day of my friend’s stag before his wedding in Boracay next week, but obviously this wasn’t just a stag day, it was also a stag night… My day actually started kind of relaxed and I took it easy in the morning. All I really […]
Travel Day 857 – Makati, Manila, PHILIPPINES After exploring the local areas around Makati yesterday, today I felt ready to go a little bit beyond and see the former Spanish fortified city… The fun thing about this little adventure was that I finally got to use the public transportation system and in this case my […]
Travel Day 856 – Makati, Manila, PHILIPPINES Makati is really just a small area within the city of Manila, but it seems to be a whole world apart and completely removed from capital city itself… It was almost a bit strange, but when I visited the Philippines 2 ½ years ago, I didn’t realize the […]
Travel Day 855 – Makati, Manila, PHILIPPINES Today was my full Arrival Day in the Manila and in comparison to Hawaii it was a really humid and sweaty one… When I stepped out on the street, I became aware of the fact that it had been over two years already since I was last in […]
Travel Day 853 and 854 – Waikiki to Guam to Manila, PHILIPPINES It was an Active Travel Day again and I was facing a 13 hour flight over to the Philippines, but luckily with a stopover in Guam… Guam is one of those places that you always hear about, but never actually go to because […]
Travel Day 852 – Waikiki, Oahu, HAWAII After having only an afternoon at the beach yesterday, I was hoping to have one more day of Travel Daycation today, but unfortunately the weather did not cooperate… At first it was only cloudy, but then it even started to rain and I had to seek shelter during […]
Travel Day 851 – Waikiki, Oahu, HAWAII Unfortunately today I had to return my scooter after three exciting days of cruising around, but at least I had it still for the entire morning… After the Pearl Harbor visit yesterday, I initially wanted to drive up the west coast and all the way up to Makaha […]
Travel Day 850 – Waikiki to Pearl Harbor, Oahu, HAWAII Finally, today it was possible to visit the one sight that I thought of first when planning to visit Hawaii, the great battleships of Pearl Harbor… On December 7 in 1941 the Empire of Japan attacked all six US airfields on Oahu and the naval […]
Travel Day 849 – Waikiki to Waimea Bay, Oahu, HAWAII It was my second day of scooting around Oahu and my plans for the day were a little more ambitious than they had been yesterday… While it took me the whole day yesterday to see the south-eastern region of the island, today I wanted to […]
Travel Day 848 – Waikiki to Kailua, Oahu, HAWAII Today was finally my big day of getting a scooter and exploring the island of Oahu a little bit on quick but tiny wheels… It had been quite a while since I had a scooter and so I was extremely excited about the prospect of being […]
Travel Day 847 – Waikiki, Honolulu, Oahu, HAWAII Well, my scooting vision did not quite come true today because it was actually a lovely, sunny day and I couldn’t help myself but go to the beach again… Well, since I decided early on that I wouldn’t get the scooter today, I felt actually ready for […]
Travel Day 846 – Waikiki, Honolulu, Oahu, HAWAII After being so happy yesterday about the nice weather, today I woke up to rain, hazy grey sky and a chilly breeze… Well, I guess it was still nice and warm compared to Canada where I just came from, but the prospect of having no sun, didn’t […]
