Before my hubby’s IT project in Cebu will end, he enjoined me to go there and we will celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary in Bohol which is a one-hour water trip through a fast ferry ride. Together, we will explore the famous and beautiful attractions in this region.

Panagbenga Festival or swimming in a beach resort? “Swimming!” Pao chose the latter eagerly. Our son is not a finicky lad, he doesn’t care if it’s a black or white sand beach as long as we are all together in a family getaway, that would be it. And so for his 14th birthday, we will go back to Villa Sulit in Baryo Hugom in Laiya, San Juan, Batangas. Cheap resort but with clear water and breathtaking view.

It was Ax’s fifth birthday and we had a simple get-together at SM Mall of Asia. My cutie nephew and his cousins craved for pizza. We took a long table in Shakey’s Restaurant. Gradually, memories of the past came back to me. Our parents would bring us here to celebrate special occasions. Now it’s our turn to bring them here… but this time, it’s with our kids… time flew so fast.
For our last day in Boracay, we woke up so early to visit the most photographed spot, Willy’s Rock. I coerced my hubby and our kids to visit this early morning as it is at its best for a memorable photo shoot. We will never leave Boracay without a picture with the famous iconic symbol of the island.
We woke up early to catch a sunrise photo of Boracay. But to our dismay, it was a gloomy morning. It did not dampen our mood and wishing that the weather would cooperate for our island hopping today. This is our second day on this beautiful island and we are looking forward to a happy adventure in what has been called, the beach capital of the Philippines.

Boracay is considered the beach capital of the Philippines and is famous for its powdery white sand and crystal-clear blue waters. Our long-time plan for a family vacation to Boracay was set for the month of December. We waited for Noel, my brother-in-law now based in Israel to come home for the festive season. We had early booking so we chanced to buy cheap airfare. And with this, off we took this once in a lifetime “get-together”, and Boracay is definitely a place to go.

Taman Tasik Titiwangsa also known as Titiwangsa Park or Lake Titiwangsa is one of the most popular recreational parks in the northern part of Kuala Lumpur. Its main attraction is the large lake where one could take a marvelous photo of Petronas Twin Towers, KL Tower, and Istana Budaya (arts and culture gallery) reflecting the calm and serene water.

My husband enjoined me to go to Malaysia after his third IT seminar in Kuala Lumpur. I can’t sustain my excitement for two reasons: it was my first time visiting the country and the first time that I will get out of the Philippines alone. I booked my flight at Cebu Pacific through an online facility (8:55 pm flight) going there. My return flight was booked on Malaysian Airlines with my husband.

Petronas Twin Towers are the tallest buildings in the world for seven years after it was completed in 1997. However, it was surpassed by Taipei 101 in 2004. The 88-floor building was inspired by Islamic art and influence as Islam is the official religion of Malaysia. Burj Khalifa now reigns as the tallest building when it was officially opened in 2010. Petronas Twin Towers remain the tallest twin buildings in the world.

Batangas City is known for its beautiful beaches and stunning dive sites. And since it is near Manila, it is frequently chosen for company or group outings. For Shen’s fifth birthday, she wished for a family beach getaway which we highly favored. We are so happy because our little girl had overcome her fear of the sea. We chose Munting Buhangin Beach Camp in Barrio Natipunan, Nasugbu as it is three-hour away only from Manila and has a beautiful sea view.
