#797 - Monochrome Wednesday.

Greetings beloved Hiveans. It's a beautiful night out here. The sky was cloudy but warm. Early today around six I was asked to drive my mother in law's niece to the airport because she is going back home to Las Vegas and her flight was noon time. My workhorse is on a color coding today at seven in the morning so we left before six to avoid getting flagged while on the road. We reached NAIA terminal 1 before seven in the morning and had a breakfast meal in Jollibee which is located at the departure area of the airport. I was sleepless but I took a bottle of RedBull energy drink which is enough to keep me awake for the time being. Then after leaving her niece we drove all the way to Pampanga wherein we dropped off her sister and husband, the parents of her niece who we dropped of by the airport. We arrived at twelve there and after leaving them by the port in the river wherein they need to ride a boat, my mother in law and I went home. We arrived before three in the afternoon. Then I slept for a few hours and then woke up for work once again. What a tiring day it was for me. I was having palpitations also maybe because of the energy drink which I believe has lots of caffeine in it.

Now for our daily shots we got here some scenes in the streets which were taken on random individuals and stuff which I think are interesting. This first one is during a heavy rainfall wherein people continue walking despite the pour of rain. These people have their own umbrellas though so it wasn't a problem at all.

We have here our common mode of transportation, the jeepneys. On the left we can see a side mirror of a parked jeepney and nit far is another jeepney on the road. These old vehicles are slowly getting replaced by modern jeeps which is a part of the government plan to modernize our transportation.

When facemask was still a thing. During our two nights of stay in this city which is the summer capital, I walked it's street and took random shots and here's one of it. There's still people wearing masks as protection from the viral COVID even though the government has lifted the use of masks. Up until now, there's still some who wears the masks just like the students who go to school on a daily basis.

The rain was heavily pouring and those who didn't have their umbrellas tend to stand still under the buildings shed while waiting for the rain to be over. Here we can see several people who are standing by while some are passing like those holding their umbrellas.
