Makati City - Where I Work!

^Have a great time! I hope the weather stays good. Be careful breathing too much clean air - no telling how your lungs may react. Lucky you were in the mountains up North not too long ago, maybe your lungs won't be toooooo shocked.

Thank God, that should be it for another five years. Not for Manila, but for the Embassy!

What is it you need to do at Embassy every five years?

[Davis Knowlton]

^Renew my kids' passports. It's every five years, with a personal appearance required, until they are sixteen. Once they turn sixteen, they get a ten-year passport, and are no longer required to appear in person, but can renew thereafter by mail.

shame on them....sorry to hear that PH. Robinsons Manila?

[Davis Knowlton]

Probably Robinsons Malate

[panama hat]

Robinsons Manila?

Yes, sorry.

Funny in retrospect, though as they haggled with me on how much they'd take . . . and left me with my wallet and my Tag Heuer watch . . .

Still, quite scary . . . and considering all the nasty places I've been . . . and even worse because my business partner in the Philippines is a colonel in the army (widely tipped to be the youngest to make general) and he always supplies me with a bodyguard . . . and this day I'd told him not to bother

I think I have missed something... Why and what doing in Manila
