Top picture is part of Burnham Park in Baguio City... hire a pedal car thing. :)
There were lots of other entertainments, etc. Good place.

Further down are another day out with family members, to our local beach, about 5 miles away.

Yes, the sign says 'No Massage', which I thought was pretty funny for a sign in a park. :biggrin:

Hi Leo.

Arriving at Clark apparently can involve negotiating a whole bunch of rip-off taxi touts... all looking for p500 upwards to get you out of the airport. (So far I've only departed from there).

There is a proper 'official' aircon jeepney, which runs to and from Dau bus terminal... which is perhaps where you would need to go ? Cost is p100. It is white in colour. I used that.

There are also supposed to be taxis with working METERS now too ! Good luck finding one of those. :cwm25:

Anyway, take your time when you come out of arrivals, and look around for alternative forms and prices of transport. Don't be bullied by the taxi mafia.

Official taxis with meters are located out of your line of sight. Come out of arrivals and turn left and you'll see them on the other side of the road :xxgrinning--00xx3:
