We've been in the Philippines for almost 2 weeks now, and have loved it thoroughly. We've especially loved the honest people, that is until today (our last day in the country) when we tried to get a jeepney to the airport a few kilometres away. We got a hassle free jeep to a junction where plenty of public jeeps displaying signs for the airport were waiting - however everyone we spoke to told us they didn't go to the airport and we needed a "special" jeep just for the 3 of us, of course at a much higher price. We ignored everyone and just jumped on a public jeep and waited to see how much other people paid - it turned out to be 9 each, verses the 70 each it would have cost for a private one!! We got dropped off right at the terminal, but it was such a shame that on our last day here we had to experience something we are more used to dealing with in the rest of South East Asia.
On the flight Adam's boarding pass held the sequence number 36, which saw him victoriously grasp his Air Asia souvenir as the winner of a lucky draw contest!!
Soon we were bouncing along the runway, as we returned to the Malaysian mainland. With roti canai calling our names we bolted for the skybus and headed straight to China Town in central KL, to find a room and some good Malaysian food.
In the evening we walked around the famous Petaling Market, where we can buy everything we could buy in China, but more expensive! If you're in the market for fake designer goods, this market could be a lot of fun!
Adlibing prizes.
