LRT 2

Image
The Light Rail Transit Line 2             With 200,000 plus commuting daily; LRT 2 provides a spacey, cool and  better service than LRT 1 and MRT. Here are the reasons why...             It has a spacious terminal. This photo was taken from the Recto Station.                           Clean and more space for standing commuters...                                  More space in the middle section, too!                                    Cool and bright for tired passengers...                                 So, cool that passengers can't help dozing off, like this one ;)   ...

October 23, Friday Night

E rrand Last Friday       'H ave to go to McKinley Bonifacio Global City (The Fort, Taguig City) last Friday to get some important documents from a client and have to rush back to Quezon City, but the traffic situation was so bad at McKinley; and there were no available cabs. It's a good thing that there was a van waiting at a nearby block and it's bound to Magallanes-MRT. Arriving at Magallanes, Alphaland Mall is the best place to take the MRT at that area. Again, it's difficult to get a ride at the nearby MRT station! And this was the reason why:                    There was already a long line inside the Alphaland Mall...!  ...All the way to the MRT station entrance which is outside the Alphaland Mall! Finding the last person from the queue is quite a feat! ;(             Just last Thursday, we saw this from inside of the MRT train, and this was the traffic situ...

Break Time

Rainy Season Break Time at Mcdonald's      The best time to kill time is to have some snacks at McDonald's. Just remember to watch or rather count the calories ;)      My friend and I shared the fries and fish fillet sandwich...      And for a treat, just a cup of the famous hot fudge! Yum!      Ah, my friend got another sandwich to take home ;)

Manila's Light Rail Transit (LRT) and Metro Rail Transit (MRT)

What A Chaotic Wednesday !      It's September 16, 2015- Wednesday and my friend found out that a Book Sale has started at SMX! We gotta go there!      Yes, from United Nations Avenue-LRT Station, Manila, my friend and I decided to ride LRT to get to Mall of Asia (MOA) where SMX is located. SMX is a convention center just beside Mall of Asia, where my friend will check a Book Sale. We will get off at Gil Puyat Ave. station and ride a jeep that will take us to MOA.      And after three (3) trains that were packed with people; that's 30 minutes of waiting, we just decided to ride a jeep instead, to get to Gil Puyat Avenue or Buendia, where MOA-bound jeeps are waiting. Here are some photos that we took and proof as how people flocked to LRT everyday just to get to the southern part of the city... This is around 4:20PM...       People are starting to get agitated, since it takes time for one train to arrive and th...

       A quick visit to the Manila Post Office at Lawton, Manila. Located just across the famous Metropolitan Theater of Manila (near LRT-Central Station) yield the following photo shots while killing time and as we wait for our appointment for filing a Postal I.D.      The door leading to the Postal I.D. application office after submitting the requirements.                                                                              We occupied this bench for almost two hours while we chat with other applicants...   Just like this group, we waited for hours...To kill time, we tried to absorbed the historic and spacious ambiance of the post office and we got these...      I love the ceiling! ...
