Maybe the Mrs has a skewed perspective of the US. We've got the same situation in our cities.

Yes, that's true. A part of the objection is that when I am there in the US I do post a thread with pictures of that particular place.

You can find most if not all of the places that I've been to in the past 4 years or so right here in the cellar.

What's different is that I have all the time in the world now to explore, snap and post about those things that I find interesting about Manila.

There is time to go on trips, to get addtional information, to add to a certain sub category of something that I might post later...many more options now that I'm not working.

As the surroundings here get more familiar my questions and explorations will get more detailed.

That's surely a part of the irritation of me posting and commenting here.
