Star City with babies

The guardians. Since it's been a while since I got together with my cousins, I decided to gather the kids and go to an amusement park with the eldest "cousin" and Bestie. My fave. I don't know if I shared this but you know in this blog yet but Peter Pan is actually my ish.  Then we queued for the classic giant sway boat and yeah. My sisters are actually okay with rides. Our two teenage cousins though. Hahaha they were cute.   To sort of calm the situation, we decided to walk thru this maze first before riding any big rides.  I think this might be one of the few times I was able to hang out with my cousins (left side) because usually when our families get together, we usually just eat and often times we dine separately, you know. Like, different tables and stuff so even though I didn't get to hang out with 3 other cousins, 2 of them being extremely young to hang-out and 1 celebrating his mum's birthday, this day is phenomenal.  Pirate stuff is also my ish. I wi...

A day in Cavite and MORE

Image
My auntie summoned us to her lovely home so from Manila, we travelled for like an hour (I think) to Cavite. My first boodle fight. I was actually informed about this ahead so I was really looking forward to this. We had stuffed squid, pork chop, Tilapia, and kare-kare. Man, I was really full.  Nailed it! At night, we went to a place called Evia Mall where they have this lighted things set-up. We were there for two things. Coffee and pictures.  Younger cousin, myself, and eldest.  After all the pictures, it's time to have a drink and guess what? Hanggang labas ang pila! Crazy. It must have been national coffee day that day or something. Like, it was my first time to see a line that long. I never in my life queued that long. Grabe lang. Anyways.   Even though a little skeptical, I still tried this. To be honest, even though I knew I wouldn't like it because it's peppermint and I knew it's gonna taste like toothpaste and stuff, I'm kinda into it. I don't know but i...

Suzuki Beach Club (Subic Bay)

Image
stop over It has been a tradition of our family to go to the beach when it's dad's birthday. This time is no exception. We went to Olongapo. Actually, we don't really go very far from the city. Years and years, we've been alternating Bataan, Batangas, Subic, and Olongapo.  We went to a resort called Suzuki. I think the owner is dad's friend of some sort. I'm not sure. Anyways, the view when we arrived blew me away.  Just look at that. Very nice. Not the best beach but the view of the mountains will surely sweep you off your feet.  They only have one pool there and it's more of like for kids but it did it for us. Also, I have no idea why they opted for Shrek when it's irrelevant. For me at least. Mika and papa just chilling. The landscape isn't anything grand but it's well maintained so that's okay too.  The sunset was a show. I mean, I saw breath-taking sunsets somewhere and this is not near any of those but you know, sunset is sunset, can...
