I was here

Tao are you?

I'm fine thank you, and you? We got a 350 peso taxi ride from the Ayala Center Mall to the Philippines Taoist Temple When you consider we've been getting around fairly easily using English, it wasn't the language barrier but the possibility of being swindled by a taxi driver into paying an outrageous sum that had us ask information about how long it took to get there and how it was called in Filipino (Tagalog) or English. So when the assistant matter of factly said, "Taoist Temple" we felt a bit anticlimactic but what can ya do? ;) We spent a colorful, silent time perusing the temple and its very creepy looking entrance sign cracked and faded with time (The color red over bronze does NOT implore peace but a very different emotion as our Facebook friends will see in our album later). Now that I'm writing this I realize that Dale's UK English settings are on and it's telling me I've spelled color wrong. Be that as it may, it's clear to see why the Chinese community of Cebu chose this location for the temple. It's wonderful and we have read that no Cebuano child has not NOT been here. Kind of like Colchester Castle in England or Mackinac Island or GR Ford Museum in Michigan. So, without further ado, release the dragons! :)
