Yes, I had to do the "American" thing - SHOPPING!!  I finally found a bread knife (and did get it into China!)

At the "Mall of Asia"

 
Of course there must be a bowling alley and ice rink in such a mall, eh?

 
Then there are the infamous "Jeepneys" of the Philippines!! 

 
I have included two shots, just for you - gives you somewhat of an idea.  Though riding in them is MUCH more fun.  Any taller vehicle, like a real school bus, a la Guatemala, etc., would tip over quickly in the Philippines (come to think of it, they weren't too steady in Central America either, right Ronnie?  She closed her eyes many a time!  Laughing!!!

 
They really are quite fun AND CHEAP!!!
