Oliver and I failed to watch the Tatakbo Ka Ba? Fun Run at the Global City early today. We content watching it on TV around 8am. After we had breakfast, we prepared to leave for Marikina. This time, we are going to check the Factoty Outlet Sale at the Riverbanks.
It was past lunch when we arrived at the Riverbanks because we have to fulfill some errands. We were both some kind of first timers to Riverbanks so it was like a short road trip for us. And the good thing is there was no traffic, thank God, it’s Sunday!
So, it’s a mall and similar to Pavilion Mall it houses several Factory Outlets like Mossimo, Guess USA, Nike, Gibi, Folded & Hung, etc. We went home with no plastic or paper bag, which means we did not, bought anything. And this gesture did not mean at all that the Sale was not worth it. It’s just because I find those outlets fit for the coming Holidays. We would definitely be back on Christmas time to buy our gifts for our inaanaks. I personally love the Guess items for kids; it would be perfect for Sam & Paolo.
After checking few more stores, we went out and wandered along the riverside. It’s gloomy, the raid just stopped but was still fortunate to capture the green background. Our Bea would love to stroll to this place; she would definitely enjoy the ground.

I had a quick photo op with this train, which was an attraction. I had no idea if this thing really runs.
the Riverland ExpressBy the way, we were able to see the biggest man made shoe at the Shoe Gallery but forgot to capture a good photo of it. Will probably have it next time. That ends Sunday, we went home early.
Tomorrow is a holiday and we have no plans yet. How about you?
I'm so familiar with marikina riverbanks! It's not that amusing but the presence of outlet stores with out-of-season-sale all year round (nike, guess, mossimo) and bazaares on holidays are its edge over the other establishments.
ReplyDeleteWe even used to eat at the "dampa"-style food stalls across the river few steps beside that SM City Marikina before. I'm not so sure if despite the erratic weather, the dampa resto owners have sustained their busineses.
thanks for the comment docgelo :)
ReplyDeleteHavin' grew up and spent most of my life southbound didn’t gave me much opportunity to visit Riverbanks before. There was nothing fancy but at least I can say now that I’ve been there :)
I’m not so sure if the dampa style eatery was still there, we did not cross along SM. There stood few grill houses at the façade of the Riverbanks.
