So we're in our formal attire looking all sharp and made up, and as soon as we hit the top of Tagaytay, BOOM! our car starts to overheat. So we pull over to the nearest gas station and ask the guy to put some water on the radiator thing or whatever (wherever you're supposed to put water when you overheat! i dunno where that is exactly! haha!) and the attendant opens the hood and just looks at the engine with this blank look on his face. Apparently, the engine of the car is built differently from other cars so he didn't know how to go about the darn thing. My husband just asked him to pour water over the whole thing hoping that would get the engine to cool down. It didn't work. I had to call the office and tell them what was up. They then told me I couldn't use the car anymore. If I kept on using it, it would only get worse and we may damage the engine even more. They told us they would be sending out the flat bed to pick up the car but that it would take some time so we would have to wait.
What to do while waiting? Starbucks was our only option but it was kind of far from where we were so we had to take a jeepney (yes a jeepney! apparently, there are no taxis in Tagaytay)! I wouldn't normally mind taking a PUJ but remember, we were in all our formal glory with our gowns and suits. Let's just say we turned a few heads in the jeep when we got on.
Imagine seeing that in a jeep with full on make up!
and I was sooo feeling my rocker-esque vibe with my faux leather jacket!
We were eventually saved (thank you brother-in-law) thank God! At least it was an experience we can laugh about.
