I've been in Manila for a couple of days now and really haven't seen anything much other than the hotel and the office. What I can tell you, though, is that the traffic is very bad, there's quite a bit of smog, and everyone is very polite and pleased to see you. One lady in our office mentioned, after I had met her, that she was surprised at how handsome I was. I, of course, have immediately put in for a promotion for her.
I have had the pleasure of eating in the hotel buffet which is very nice and sports a magnificent chocolate elephant sculpture by the dessert area. The staff weren't quite sure what to say when I insisted I didn't want any of the other desserts on offer and would prefer a piece of the elephant's ear instead.
