The rain has cleared so we took the ferry into Manila City, visited some sights, and claimed the Phillipines’ oldest cache. What the world known as Manila is actually a cluster of 16 highly urbanized cities: the City of Manila, Caloocan, Las Piñas, Makati, Malabon, Mandaluyong, Marikina, Muntinlupa, Navotas, Parañaque, Pasay, Pasig, Quezon City, San Juan, Taguig, and Valenzuela, and one municipality: Pateros. You are staying with me at my home in Pasig. The city's name, Pasig, is a Tagalog word which means, "a river that flows into the sea" or "sandy bank of a river". 🛺
