Southwinds Resort, Pansol Laguna

Pansol is known for its hot spring resorts, and having a holiday last November 30, 2012, my cousins and siblings celebrated Bonifacio Day in Southwinds Resort in Pansol Calamba Laguna.
It is dark when we came in the venue, but this was matched with the warm water offered to us by the swimming pools there..

Though it is dark, taking pictures is my hobby! 

Before we leave, see this breath taking view in the front of Southwinds hotel.

Though it is just hours we've been together, the bonding and connection still remains. ! 

Just get close to each other, specially to those cousins which may be far from you,  let them feel that you love them and show your ways of life by living-in-standard.

La Virginia Resort, Batangas

Last September 10, 2012, as a celebration for the "BER" months, La Virginia Resort in Mataas na Kahoy, Batangas City claimed us as her visitors. We ride a bus going to Tambo Exit. For almost 20mins, we enjoyed star tollway and dropped us there. Jeepney having signboard 'Mataas na Kahoy' is our carrier to reach a tricycle terminal that will brought us to the gate of La Virginia.

With a 350php entrance fee and a cottage, we enjoy taking pictures and feel the peaceful essence of the place.

You can choose where to get wet with their swimming pools.

This place is perfect if you are searching for silence and peace of mind.. Having a 1day vacation could be a good reward to your 1month working days...and with a twist, after those curves in our way of living, you'll be bringing back your life to live-in-standard!

Isdaan Floating Restaurant in Calauan, Laguna

Fine dining here in Laguna, Isdaan in Calauan joined the rankings. A place where emphasizing the different culture and belief of different countries. Others may say it is "BADUY" for its design, but for me, it is a great chance for us Filipino who can't reach those countries to see their way of living and their civilization.

For us to dine, we need to fall in line and reserve table for 7/pax. Waiting worths for delicious foods! Menus and prices are competitive.

After lunch, we enjoyed taking pictures.

Lastly, we go around in the man-made river.

That time, the heat is on and with this place, you can power up your energy to enjoy the set-up and celebrate life.. You just live once, and you should enjoy it by living-in-standard!

Cebu City

Cebu city is one of the most historical city here in the Philippines. Last March 14-16, 2012, we've been there to explore what's inside of it!  Booked thru Cebupacific back and forth.
We departed @9:15pm in NAIA Terminal 1 and arrived @10pm in Mactan Cebu, spent our first night in a friend's house.
On our first day, we start to go-around-cebu in Mantayupan Falls, Barili Cebu. WeeeeWWW!! water is so good! so cold!!! We enjoyed eye-catching views and felt the not-totally developed by human falls set-up.

After that, my cousin which is working in Cebu joined us to taste delicacies there! Dined in Casa Verde, an American-style casual restaurant, offered us to meet their very own spare ribs.

That night, Cebu guest house adopted us to take some rest for tomorrow's another adventures!

Waking up @7o'clock in the morning is not hard for that day! We already packed our things.

They're saying that "you've never been in Cebu if you don't reach Magellan's Cross, Cebu City Hall, Fort San Pedro Botanical Park, Taoist Temple and Doce Pares Zipline! With gladness, we already took some pictures in those places.

For dinner, we chose Royal Concourse buffet! It is totally a BURFFF!! BurFFFF!! BurfFF! dinner for only 198/pax (happened to be on their promo that night), we enjoyed their cuisines!

Our vacation which lasts for 3 days earned relaxation, gives energy for Back to work and living-in-standard again!

Enchanted Kingdom

They're saying that Thursdays are #throwback#, well, well, well. . . see this ticket! We've been in Enchanted Kingdom last Oct2011, with my Minnesota family in ADEC. 1 day is not enough to enjoy all rides there!

We bought the ticket in group (it costs less of 50php i think!). We Started to fall in line @11am! so be early friends if your ticket is ride-all-you -can!

Bump Car is our first ride!

Next is Extreme! That time, it is the hottest of all rides there. It is like going up to see the whole Laguna and a 2-sec going down separating your soul from your body!

And the rest are all for fun rides.
