I was trying to get back to SPN from MNL when they had some kind of Free Trade Agreement of the Pacific meeting in Manila that put the screws on the all ready boogered up traffic there even harder. Driver tried to go around every which way to a road block or baricaded dead ends. President Clinton with Air Force 1 was in town, and security was stiff. Got to the gate, just in time for the door to close in my face. Missed the flight, next morning got up two hours earlier and there was NOBODY on the road but us. Had to wait a long time at the airport before I finally got out. Better early than late.
