Hope costs will stay reasonable for doctors and medicine.

I can read some advices talking about very long waiting time. Did you experience it?

Do you need it or not? Be glad quality care is available.

Waiting time? My past experience or anyone else's has nothing to do with the day you are there. FWIW mine was reasonable with quality care.

Arriving Wednesday morning 9 am arrival in Manila. From Athens. Yay jet lag. And yay Scoot. Leaving Sunday 7 pm from Angeles CRK onward to Hong Kong.

If you could call the shots, how many days in Manila how many in AC and is there time for a wild card third choice or nearby resort town even non monger unwind resort?

Bring your Plan B pills.

[QUOTE=Dg8787;2416042]Personally I wouldn't spend one night in Manila. Just head to AC.

Bring your Plan B pills.[/QUOTE]I'm the other way: I need to tap out after 3 days in AC but can easily spend a week in Manila.

Other options don't need to be close if they have many flights per day. An hour flight can be much quicker than driving across Metro Manila.

I'm going to the Phillip. In March and have a week available. Already going to spend a few days in Cebu. And of course Manila. Is it worth going to Angeles? I RTFF and note it seems over priced and many girls don't cater to white middle aged guys, or rather prefer a different flavor guy with loads of cash. Reminds me of Pattaya. Which last time wasn't as much fun for those same reasons. Any special reason to go to Angeles, apart from convenience? Just think my time is better spent in more laid back places.

Thanks for the help.

Thankfully I stocked up on some at a Mexico pharmacy. (That's forward monger thinking!) Will 3 be enough?

EQ.[/QUOTE]Go with your gut if you have RTFF and make hat decision as we all do as we all have different flavours.

PM if you want a few contacts please.

And as a matter of interest to my mind at least LOL you have 3 FRs in 2010 (questions) , 1 and 2011 (question) and this one so perhaps a posting with some info on Mexico etc would be nice as you must have had lots of replies.

Look forward to the PM EQ if you decide to go and need contacts non pros.

[QUOTE=EdwardQ;2416845] many girls don't cater to white middle aged guys, or rather prefer a different flavor guy with loads of cash. R[/QUOTE]I would have thought the opposite. AC is full of white middle aged guys whom all have 1 (or more) Filipina by their side.

As for "loads of cash" ways to find girls for whom spare USD20 is loads of cash.

Please include AC on you agenda. I'd suggest organizing your domestic flights like CEB-CRK-MNL so you have one less road trip between MNL & CRK.

PP.

[QUOTE=CenTexCrash;2416907]Thankfully I stocked up on some at a Mexico pharmacy. (That's forward monger thinking!) Will 3 be enough?[/QUOTE]3 is enough for a starter kit.

You have 1 to 3 chance of using it. Based on my calculations of 10 vulnerable days out of 30.

I used one the other night. Folks remember these are taken orally, by the girl!
