Greetings from Subic!

It's Good Friday and I'm in the main clubhouse of the Subic Yacht Club.

As it is every year - shops here don't close at all!  It's mainly because its one of those days that there area a lot of tourists!! :)

Cheers everyone!

BTW - traffic at the NLEX yesterday was horrendous!!  We left at about 10am and got to Subic at 2 in the afternoon!!

Tried out the new highway and it was smooooooth!!

Nice...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!!
