There are various modes of transportation here in the Philippines. One of those is the tricycle. It is a motorbike with a sidecar attached to its side. People here in the Philippines make use of this to travel between streets/blocks. Very convenient especially if you are carrying something heavy or the sun is angrily beating down your skin. Like right now. Or it is raining hard.

I make use of this mode of transportation all the time – going to church, going to taxi stops or going to another street blocks away from where I live. Most students also make use of tricycles in going to and from schools.
