Kiamba Escapade' 12

We are all excited for our yearly family reunion.  This time we will be visiting relatives living at Kiamba, Saranggani Province.  It was a long 8hrs. drive from our place. Because we wanted to see some new and old relatives  as well as see their place again in different venue. They have house us in front of a beach. The air is fresh as well as the water is so enticing. The kids can’t help it after a meal they took a dive already. We arrived very early so we have the liberty to roam around the place.

While waiting for our turn for  island hopping. We saw a fish boat unloading some tuna fish .It was really an experience worth keeping. I asked the person to take some pictures. It was our first time to see fish with distinct names and sizes.

We played some tug and wars  for us to enjoy the afternoon. From children to adult alike.

We visited the newly construction of  Manny Pacquiao’s resort. We just intend to look from afar since we all packed in a big fish boat. It was indeed a deep blue sea.

It was indeed a reunion worth attending to. Next Year another place but with the same  relatives.

Pizza Eater Frenzy

          A friend of mine just arrived from the USA. She wanted to treat the group with some pizza. I don’t usually go out late night. I used to staying home with friends over. But this one is different a big pizza with friends in four different flavour. I find it  so amusing we had it during Cj’s birthday last year. This one is bigger its size  36’inches. We took the picture in front so that we can enjoy eating it. When the pizza arrived all of us seems to be thinking .Can we really consume all of it? 


      We dig in and enjoy the moment. We enjoyed the night with all memory recalling of our high school life. We shared some jokes we used to laughed at. The night ended with all the pizza gone. But we  continue to share stories and crushes we had before. Reunions indeed are nice to have once in a  while. Especially friends coming from out of the country. We may meet someday and in different place and time. Laughing and sharing some jokes and blessings will always be there.

New Year @ GUIMARAS Island..

It was indeed a different New Year for all of us. It has been for 12 years that we never experienced a fireworks display. Davao city always celebrate it with a different bang. The sounds everywhere you go. Big sound boxes where on the streets for the countdown.

Last December 28, 2011 we attended an annual reunion on my father side relatives. We were able to meet some new found relative. They welcome us with a warm embrace. We do not like the fireworks .






Since our flight was moved to a latter days we decided to explore the Island of GUIMARAS. I have visited the place when I was very young. Now is different I am with whole family with the kids. An experienced worth keeping.



We arrived at Jordan Warf and took a jeepney to Raymen Resort which was located at ALOBIJOD. It took us 30 minutes boat ride and another one hour for the jeepney to reach our destinations. It was indeed new for all of us. Nobody from us knew the place .But it was indeed a secured place. Imagine white sand and islets from a far. Fresh air and people are all smiling to welcome us. 









The kids can’t wait to take a deep. We found out plenty of fresh catch fish for sale. Wow indeed a paradise island for us. More Guimaras escapade on the next post..........

Kadayawan sa DAVAO 2011

 
        Davao City is very busy for the Kadayawan '11. The main streets are being adorned of colourful pongees to indicate the start of it. Teasers are being posted at Youtube. Even though I have not yet seen some teasers in the television. I can feel the intense preparation of organizers and the surrounding community.

My little Kim was so excited to be of help for the said event. How? In their school they were encouraged to bring some handful of rice and some canned goods for their participating dancers. Their school is very active and constant winner of the “Indak Indak” (street dancing) category children division. Their school is  MAGALLANES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. It is indeed an activity Davaonoes will look for in the month of August. They have line up activities posted in every bulletin board. Some are in malls and accessible areas. Just search on the Kadayawan schedule of activities at www.google.com
     Every year they will display some plants and other orchids in a very cheap prize. Lots of exhibits about Davao .Malls will also welcome entertainers to highlight the occasion. They will also decorate and make fun activities to show case what is Kadayawan all about.
     May this year be of fruits beyond compare. Pomelos and other loved fruits like Durian. Flowers display is indescribable. All for world class interpretation.
