Beautiful Makati

So, now that I've finally somewhat acclimated to working at night, I can appreciate the beautiful sun and greenery, instead of trying to hide from the light to sleep.

This photo is from my balcony. It's really beautiful here. So much green. Palm trees line the streets and spring up from between houses. The temperature, while in the 80s & 90s, and pretty humid, is offset by how beautiful everything is to look at.

There are definitely downsides to such a huge city with a lot of poverty. I'm sure that will hit me later. I hope to join the friends in service soon.

I had McDonald's for lunch last night, they serve fried chicken there! Wasn't half bad. In the US, a typical side is French fries or bread. Here, a typical side dish is spaghetti! Complete with marinara sauce! That doesn't really make sense in my head :). Here's to new a fun cultures!
