Exploring the Metro: November 5 2024

Exploring the Metro

Coming in from our team get-together, I reached my sister's apartment a little over midnight. We chatted for a while, and I told her I plan on leaving with her in the morning when she goes to work. I left my kids at home and I just want to go back to them as soon as I can.

I was too tired, and I noticed my feet were swollen. I raised my legs up while fighting my urge to sleep. 😵 I was trying hard to understand my sister's instruction on how to navigate the train commute from her place.

It would be my first time to take the LRT Line 2 and take the link to LRT line 1.

Directions

So the following morning, my sister gave me final directions on how to get to the train station. It was pretty straightforward and I got there without getting lost. Lol.

I got my single journey ticket to the last station that links to Line 1. Since it was at 7am and indeed a rush hour, it took some time before the train arrived. I was only able to take the 2nd train because the first one was already full.

More walking as I reached the final station and walked to the connecting Line 1 station. I almost regretted my decision not to take Grab. Lol.

Anyhow, it was quite an adventure. It's been a long time since I last experienced Manila commute. Lol.

I finally reached the bus station after perhaps an hour. The traffic was so bad, the usual 2.5hrs bus travel back home took 3.5 hrs.

Ps.

Not a lot of interesting photos. I wasn't too complacent walking around holding my phone and taking pictures or I might have ended up not having my phone or worse, my hand. Lol.

Pps. Actifit app is crashing on me when I upload pictures. I used peakd to upload and copied the image address.
