learn a few words of tagalog, try to pass off as filipino, and just enjoy manila. can get a bit testy though - yesterday all cell phones were blocked from making / receiving calls because of a suspected terrorist attack on the black nazarene procession... they said it was so that the terrorists can't remotely trigger an explosive device using a phone call... sigh
