    made to manila on time

    Qatar airlines made my first flight comfortable and pleasant

    the flight from doha to manila sat next
    to such a nice filipina lady on her way back
    from the UK. she made the flight go really quick, chatting and joking with me.

    once I was past customs I was surrounded by taxi drivers asking what hotel, had a couple dirty looks when i said i'd book with nissan car hire(would recomend them for first timers).

    I did have airport security guard come and show were I could change some money even though I was already about at the counter and then said it would be nice if I gave him some english money

    well I had £20 notes and some change so
    i gave him 50p

    I'm going on a bit coz in condo on my own and can't sleep waiting for Jonalyn to get to manila (only 4 hours to go)

    Glad you'd good flights ... the congenial company on the second leg of your journey would help.
