I went to the NAIA T3 to fetch a relative from the airport. I arrived more than 2 hours early that I had to kill time. After strolling around the terminal, eating and strolling around again, I remembered the newly opened Runway Manila and looked for its access point. You can access it via the Food Hall past the Ka Tunying's Cafe and KFC. Here are pics that i took...By the way, The Runway Manila is an overpass that connects NAIA T3 to the Resort's World Manila side of the road. It gives travellers a convenient access to crossover.

Pradera Verde, Lubao, Pampanga, Philippines
Had a chance to visit Pradera Verde in Lubao, Pampanga. You can reach it via SCTEX - Dinalupihan Exit or via NLEX - San Fernando Exit...It is a golf and country club with a wake boarding park.
I recommend the longer route but faster way via SCTEX.

Swimming pools, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar
Did you know that aside from the beach, the heritage resort features a few swimming pools not readily seen by tourists or patrons. Here are some pics (All rights reserved)
This pool is open to all guests, the kids enjoyed it, the water is lukewarm
This pool is integrated at the back of one of the houses along the estero
This pool is shielded by houses that passersby would hardly notice it's there
Estero de Binondo, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, Bagac, Bataan, Philippines
Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar features a canal or estero named after the original Estero de Binondo, but this one is a lot cleaner and no smell of stench as the one in the Binondo quarters. You can go boating in the estero for a fee. Here are some pics. (All rights reserved)
