Travelling to Divisoria & Lucky Chinatown

Travelling to Divisoria from our house took us to the streets of Sampaloc, Manila. Ramon Magsaysay Blvd, to Recto Avenue, and to avoid the traffic, we went around Intramuros, crossed the bridge, then to Quintin Paredes in Chinatown.

I’ve been away from this area for 3 decades since I graduated from UST, but the look and feel are pretty much the same.

Julienne thinks the owners are happy and gay. Their names could obviously be Peter and Pepito

This lady is taking a good bath on the sidewalk. She’s got clothes on but no undies.

We used my son’s vehicle and when I took a photo of the traffic, Patrick, a gift from his girlfriend Jill, is right in the middle.

I always feel grateful whenever I see vehicles on the road with our stickers

i think we’re getting closer. I opened my bag and checked my cash. going to Divisoria needs a different kind of preparation. No jewelry, bring an old and ugly bag, no bringing of things you don’t want to lose, cash only but scatter around your bag and put some extra for emergency in your deep pockets, if in case you lose your bag, at least you could still go home.

Julienne finally had a taste of Divisoria when we managed to go to the Lucky Chinatown shopping mall this part of Manila.

The vehicles dropping off passengers and vehicles going inside the mall’s parking create heavy traffic. Mall developers and owners must take these things into consideration when their planning their next project.

This is my first time here. Julienne’s second when she came here to check out our off site car display.

The brands inside the mall are carefully chosen. The items and selections are of high quality.

Oyen’s feet immediately brought her to Cotton On. They have nice stuff but I am worried everyone else have those.

I was able to buy a winter dress from the Mango outlet in Baguio for a big discount. But there’s not much to choose from, they have very few styles available.

We came here to get the Divisoria experience and not the typical classy mall. We went out to the back side to follow my sense of direction, we also asked for direction.
