Cousins Get Together
Our kids had a great time playing with their cousins during our family reunion at Dakak Beach Resort last year. I t was an early morning at the beach where we had our breakfast by the sea. The kids had fun playing in the sand, looking for some sea shells. They embraced the warmth of the sun and the sea breeze. Such moments as these rarely happen since their two cousins lived in the States. They only visit us once every two years because of the great distance among us. We are all hoping that my sister would continue to visit us again soon so that our kids could get in touch with one another as they grow up.

A Glimpse at Maria Cristina Falls
When my sister, and her two daughters, came home from Tennessee sometime in year 2011, our immediate family members were delighted to see them home. We had several gatherings and outing then. The kids had the chance to bond with their cousins. Our last out-of-town trip as a family was the vacation in Dakak Beach Resort, Dapitan City where everyone had a great time. As we headed back home, we dropped by at the National Power Corporation in Iligan City to see Maria Cristina Falls. All of us were mesmerized of the falls as it reached to the viewing deck’s pool, plunging some of its water to us. We were only allowed to view the falls because swimming there is strictly prohibited due to the uncontrollable strong current of the water.

Bukidnon’s New Tourist Spot
Last month we visited our hometwon in Bukidnon. While we were on our way, I couldn’t help but appreciate that our native province has improved a lot. The national highway is currently under rehabilitation/improvement. New tourist spots sprouted such as Dahilayan Adventure Park, RR Family Spring Resort, Waig Crystal Spring, etc. which were said to be frequently visited by tourists. What more, is Impasug-ong Bukidnon’s new giant statues of Kaamulan headdress and dancers that stood along Sayre Highway and near the town proper. This is an ideal stopover for great photograph whether you are traveling the Cagayan de Oro to Bukidnon or Cagayan de Oro to Davao route. We, too had the chance to take a photo of this nice scenery.

Kids First Time Flyers
In July 23, 2010, God allowed our family to spend a few days vacation in Baguio and Manila. My husband and I were anxious because that was the first time we went on a long distance travel with our kids—Kyle, who was just 2 years old and Harley, who turned 1 year old on July 24, 2010. The kids were excited to ride an airplane. They kept moving on their seats. They did not fell asleep. At times, they would glance at the plane’s window to take a glimpse of the view below while we were boarding. On the other hand, Kyle commented that the white clouds in the sky looked like cotton.

Manila Zoo
When my whole family went to Manila Zoo, I was very excited that our 2 little kids would finally see those animals they only saw in books and posters. That was their first time to have encountered with several kinds of live animals. Before going there, I briefed them that our tour would be exciting because we would have personal encounter with various kinds of animals. When we finally got there, they had a chance to see hippopotamus, deer, snakes, turtles, deer, zebra, elephant, monkeys, etc. There was only 1 elephant left at the zoo because the others died out of old age. When I asked for the giraffe, the zoo’s attendant said that it died several years ago. What they only have is a statue of this extinct animal.
