Nielsen's at The Peninsula

I just got back from breakfast. The hotel does know a Filipino stomach, the buffet was lined with endless choices. I was just a bit disappointed that the mangoes ran out. I am glad to have had 3 slices though. They're as good as always.

I am back in Manila for 5 days. The trip was packed with unwanted events... flight delays, cancellations, airline transfer confirmations. And then when I got to the hotel, found out that the client was unable to make it. Talk about shock! So I made calls, my boss who's only just arrived made arrangements to travel back the next day, but I didn't. Not yet. Then the good news, the client will be arriving a day late, but arriving nonetheless.

So I called mom and met with her and Kuya Jhun for lunch. That was after I've had about 4 hours of sleep. After a quick trip to SM (what would a Manila trip be without it?), we went back to the hotel to rest before dinner at Kuya Eisen's. It was good to see family, share stories, add pounds (the food was great), and just be there.

Today, meetings start at lunch so I will talk some more a bit later.
