    It's not difficult for a city person. :)

    Careful if you go to Subic.... may get dragged into a girlie bar and rude things done to you. :eek:

    (Beach is rubbish, but the bars are fun. :D).

    I think he's going with a girlfriend, so as long as she's with you you'll be safe from unwanted entities.

    I never felt being surrounded by those girls, while I'm with my fiancé, is a competition. Actually gives me pride to myself. You know what I mean.

    Frankly I wouldn't dream of being disrespectful enough to take my wife into an area or a bar of that type.

    As for it being easy to stay 2 weeks in Manila for a 'city person', I suppose that it depends on your standards. It is easy to spend a long time in the great cities of the world.
    Manila is not one of them. Even though it is a capital city, it has a lot less to see than York, but more than Milton Keynes if you get my drift.

    I went to Peurto galera this last trip. It's about an hour and a half to batangas then a 45 minute boat ride to Peurto Galera. Your close to manila yet a world away from the hustle and bustle of the City. The museum in Ayala mall is quite good but shut on a Monday. Apart from that from my limited experience in Manila its malls malls and more malls. I'm sure there is much more to it than I've seen though. Safe trip.

    We were there middle of august. Didn't we cross paths!? Lol
    Wasn't a good time though, waves were high and strong. Didn't get to swim. And got myself covered in sands and fiance lost his glasses to the sea. Have you found them? Green in color.

    If I go into a girlie bar with my wife, I always tell her that I shall be leaving with the prettiest girl in the place. And that's exactly what I do.

    If you're looking for a cheap but good hotel, the Red Planet in Makati was really good.

    GoHotels offer cheap but pleasant rooms.
    Though the room service is annoying.
