Before leaving El Dorado, we took time to debrief and reflect upon our day and our work.

We had a little bit of time to wash up before our next destination but everyone was afraid to go the washroom because of this:

So we headed off to the closest SM mall to find a public washroom.  There we had time to look around and have some fun.

After SM, we went to the Baclaran outdoor market where we first got to experience negotiating prices.

Because of the sheer amount of people there, we had pay close attention to staying together in our teams… good practice for us for when we go to the Mall of Asia for New Year’s Eve.

At the market you can pretty much buy anything from clothing, toys, electronics, purses, undergarments, knock-offs, and even puppies.

The market also had a huge variety of (unique) food for sale (but we were advised not to eat any of it just in case).

This made us all very hungry so we made our way to a restaurant called “Singing Waiters and Cooks”

What a jammed pack day!  Tomorrow we go on our city tour.
