    come on rhoody, looks like your the one that got ripped off!!

    Na, 40Php? 100 php? what does it matter? I'd say, for the happiness of your fiancee(von-mark) and your girl (rhoody), 40 or 100 is peanuts! :wink:

    peanuts are 5 peso... hehe

    the rip off comment was mend a bit humorous.

    I am many times at Mikes Dive-Shop at the Boulevard. We often "sponsor" this rides for some of "our" peanut-kids. They always love it and have a total blast.

    Once I took one to bring me home to Batinguel. The guy looked at me in big disbelieve, the horse almost died with a heart attack, but finally we made it.

    ic... well i can't blame the kutchero if he said 40 pesos for one trip . To me that is still fair because its not everyday people do ride Kalesa. My fiancee even give the man 250 and he was so thankful and happy. I even told my man that its was just to much from boulevard to palwa well he said its not everyday you will have the chance to have that ride. The important things is that we our all happy :smile:
