Do you know that aside from ChaMike Monthsary, May 18 is also International Museum Day?
Every year since 1977 International Museum Day is organized worldwide. It's exciting to go to museums during this day because almost all museums offer discounts or even free entrance fees.
Mike started this ChaMike tradition last year when he got a big discount at The Mind Museum. Since then we promised ourselves to go to different museums every May 18.

This year we planned on visiting Ayala Museum. They offer free entrance! Too bad Mike had work on that day so we decided to move it to the next day. Pero no promo na :(

But that didn't stop us for fulfilling our pact. Mike insisted to push through with our International Museum Day Date at Ayala Museum <3
Ayala Museum is located at Makati Avenue just beside Greenbelt Mall. Entrance fee is P150 for adults if you only visit 1st floor to 3rd floor, if you want to visit all floors from 1st floor to 4th floor entrance fee costs P225 each. We availed the latter and started from 4th floor going down.
