Manila, Philippines Churches and beaches are on the wish list of must-see places in the Philippines for some candidates in the 2014 Miss Earth beauty pageant. <\/p>\n
Some of them have arrived early for the environment-driven beauty contest such as Austria, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Fiji, Myanmar, Samoa, South Africa, Switzerland, Tonga, United States, and Zambia.<\/p>\n
But some of the candidates were shocked at the traffic in Metro Manila. <\/p>\n
Traffic is so heavy. But the people are so nice and smiling, said Miss USA Andrea Neu, 23, of Colorado. <\/p>\n
Miss Zambia Cartier Zagorski of Lusaka also noticed the citys heavy traffic. <\/p>\n
The people here are simply amazing! Oh my God! The traffic! said Zagorsk during a welcome dinner tendered by Yoshinoya Restaurant in Glorietta, Makati City Friday night. <\/p>\n
Pageant organizers said the welcome dinner is the first public appearance for the candidates of Miss Earth contest. <\/p>\n
It was also the third time that the Japanese fastfood chain gave a welcome treat to early arrivals of the beauty contest, said Yoshinoya Century Pacific Inc. President Timothy Yang. <\/p>\n
At the mall, heads turned as customers and shoppers with tablets and cellphones with cameras stopped and posed for souvenir photos with the girls. <\/p>\n
