Google Maps is sheer GENIUS! It even shows all the options for public transportation AND the schedule! WOW! It shows hotels and restaurants around the area too! You could plan a whole trip abroad with just google maps and trip advisor!

I think pati kung magkano fare of public transpos (trains) meron na din.

Yes! It amazes me! There's no need for young people to join a group tour na.

Yes. SM Aura.

Nice area.

I remember our visit there well. We were driving my niece back to BGC after she visited us at LPC. We had dinner at SM Aura and then drove my niece to her apartment (not condo, my mistake). My sister is very proud of her daughter for getting a good job right after college. But, when we entered my niece's apartment and saw what a total disaster it was inside, my sister went on a tongue-lashing spree.

She has a good job indeed to be able to afford to live in BGC. Very few fresh grads could do that unless they have a housemate.

I don't like SM aura so much. I like high street better There's a new section now in high street. You should check it out next time you come and visit

Knowing my family history, my sister probably helped my niece get that apartment along with providing many of the furnishings. Checking further, my niece did have roommates to help defray the cost of rent. We didn't see any of them which was strange. My sister was still fuming though because 3 or 4 people can't keep a single apartment clean.

My next visit won't be until 2016 unless it's an emergency. But, we (I'll have my two daughters with me) will make it a point to see more of the area.

Wondering what people my age are up to. I realized that in most social circles I'm in, I'm always one of the youngest.

This holds true for my job, my badminton group, biking group, and all forums I join.

I was supposed to paint just the kids' rooms. The task mushroomed up to include the whole house. Now, it's the garage. It'll be a while though because a friend has to spackle the walls first. Long break for me. ;)

I've already taken all our stuff out of rental storage. But, I haven't seen yet my favorite souvenir from the PH. I hope it's in one of the wife's bins or in our household storage from NY.....

Remembering the previous six winters. A few close calls but not a scratch for us.
These folks weren't as lucky. Even 4x4 vehicles weren't immune. When you lose traction on ice, you lose traction, period. 4x4 or AWD is no use.

That is so scary! Why does that happen? Something to do with the tires or the driving?

Well, it's very slippery road conditions due to either ice or snow. During winter, we expected the roads to be full of snow and ice. So, it's a no-brainer to slow down. The thing is, a lot of other drivers tended to be cocky. They'd either speed or tailgate and then end up off the road or crashing into other vehicles.

A phenomenon called freezing rain can also occur where supercooled water droplets (water in liquid form with freezing temperatures) fall as rain and then freeze on contact. Very nasty. The road becomes a solid sheet of ice. No traction whatsoever. I probably gained the gray hairs I have during a couple of bad freezing rain episodes.

My German boss has snow tires or something that is installed in the tires during winter. For traction daw. It that required by law in the US?

I'm thinking of my short vacation this weekend.

It's good practice but not required by law, at least in the states I lived in. I know in Nevada, drivers are required to have snow chains during winter or else they can't drive on the mountain passes of I-80 during heavy snow.

I miss the well treated roads in the northeast. Had my fair share of snow storms and who could forget the 2012 nor'easter. Didn't have snow tires, my tires are all weather I believe.
