On Thursday, we shop. We start early in Bambang. Second hand clothing all over the place.

Where you can find dresses from the seventies for about $1.25 (at Mr. Retro).

We can also make the trip to Divisoria to look at more cheap clothes, shoes and household items. .

Then we go traipsing through the airconditioned Megamall, one of the largest malls in Asia.

There are clinics, gyms, dentist offices, evangelical services, restaurants, coffee shops, shoe stores, clothing stores, jewelers, bookstores, music stores, sporting goods stores, computer schools, martial arts schools, beauty salons, computer centers, cinemas, amusement centers, bowling lanes, internet cafes, a grocery and an ice skating rink among others.

An estimated half a million people walk through its halls every day.
