Our trip here to Manila was flawless. We flew first class on Delta, and it is definitely the way to go! We had a short layover in Tokyo and arrived in Manila at 10:30 Thursday night. Our driver was waiting to take us to the Seda Hotel. People were in costume roaming the streets going to and from Halloween parties - it was quite festive. We arrived at our hotel and talk about comfort! It was just what we needed after being in transit for 24 hours.
After having breakfast at the Seda Bistro, we met Liza at Serendra Two. She got us settled into our apartment and showed us around the property. Serendra is really great - there are three pools, a workout facility a meandering garden with a man made, rocky stream. It is so peaceful - difficult to believe we are in the middle of the city :) We explored the area and checked out the new mall and supermarket within walking distance. Of course we were killing time awaiting the arrival of Kona.
Kona arrived at 10:30 P.M. We were so glad to see him! Air Animal did a great job getting him to us :) We walked the grounds to let him get acclimated and then headed to the apartment - it is going to be a different lifestyle for him!
Saturday was a great day enjoying the apartment (our view is beautiful!) and exploring the area. We took Kona for a nice, long walk to one of the parks in the area. Even though it was dark (the sun sets at 5:30) it was still humid, sometimes difficult to catch a deep breath. We will all get used to that I suppose.
Sunday was another great day. Just relaxing and letting our systems get used to the time change and climate. Of course Edi had to go into work today (Monday). It was a 16 minute walk for him - a straight shot from our complex. What a nice commute! I am hanging around the apartment today. I think DHL is supposed to deliver what we shipped today - I can't believe it has gotten here so fast!
