8:30PM - It only takes 45 minutes to travel from Roxas Blvd in Manila to Quezon City via EDSA. That's how clear EDSA is. No more updates follow.
7:30PM - Anti-riot police disperse Ayala rallyists. Looks peaceful, compared to the EDSA dispersal. Rallyists ran when a fairly huge contingent of anti-riot police suddenly showed up.
6:49PM - Rallyists are staying in Ayala.
5:03PM - Wreath-laying at Ninoy Aquino Monument.
4:57PM - UMDJ/PMAP Rally Group now approaching Mandaluyong-Makati Bridge.
4:30PM - Yellow confetti rains down on the corner of Ayala and Paseo de Roxas Ave.
4:26PM - Rally leaders negotiating with police (Ayala Ave). Ayala does not seem as filled as in previous rallies.
4:20PM - Police and rallyists both place women at the front of their lines.
4:05PM - Makati rallyists standing 30 meters away from the police. (Seen in the Ayala Avenue crowd: A foreign couple and their child [riding in a stroller]; several taho vendors.)
3:55PM - EDSA cor Ortigas Ave looks clear. Helicopters keep flying overhead.
3:53PM - Rallyists marching towards Ayala Ave. in Makati. Blue and red flags. It would be great if mobile bloggers would post photos to their blogs using their cellphones. Too bad, G-Blogs is down. Haven't found any Makati photos in CubeBlog.
3:40PM - NTC meets with cable operators; considering the possibility of government taking over radio stations and preventing the airing of anti-government messages if needed.
