Soft Luxe Staycations: Binondo Series - Traveling to Binondo and Checking in at Ramada by Wyndham

  Last week, my sister and mom were staying at Ramada in Binondo. I talked to mom and asked if she wanted to visit Divisoria and Lucky Chinatown since it's been ages since we last went there. But then, I suddenly remembered the reason why we stopped going. I don't want to drive there anymore as it's far and the route is not very ideal for me after a long day of shopping. I'd be too tired to focus on the road. Plus, one of the last times I drove there, we got caught in a typhoon and a flood! I was driving, with mom in shotgun,  while the water around us was rising quickly! I remember that the highest flood level was in front of La Salle University. We were stuck there for quite some time. Thank God, we made it home safely. And thank my driving instructor for making me drive through a typhoon, in a flooded narrow street in manual transmission  all those years ago! Thank you, Sir Egdon!
