Manila And The Tummies That Had So Much FUN

May 4-5, 2013. Supposedly, our parents' anniversary date.

Family out of town is in my 28 Things at 28 list! Papa, however, was not able to make it for some official reasons. So, it's an advance mother's day date!

Cebu pacific might have spoiled our itinerary but I made sure the girls won't miss the fun! :) From the Domestic Airport, we headed straight to Wensha Spa-Macapagal for some pampering. We had buffet merrienda, jacuzzi, sauna, whole body massage and buffet dinner!

I was not satisfied with the massage though. I would still recommend Wensha-Timog.

We got up early the following day and attended the 7:00am mass at Malate Church. Then we loitered around baywalk, took advantage of the stop light and snapped a few shots in the middle of the street! A fun run has just ended so the other lane was still closed.

Traffic police wannabes!
What else should be done on an early Sunday morning? Breakfast of course! We had our buffet breakfast at Makan-Makan - H20.

Breads for breaky! :)
We are supposed to see the Jellies but Manila Ocean Park does not sell tickets per attraction. They came up with a package inclusive of activities from morning til evening. Of course that is not favorable to us who have already seen the other attractions before. So we headed back to the hotel instead and prepared ourselves for our afternoon tour!

Still filled by the breakfast earlier, we grabbed a pizza and spaghetti for (late) lunch :)

It was a hot afternoon. We explored Fort Santiago in lieu of a Corregidor historical tour.

The kalesa that brought us to the gate of Fort Santiago! ...from Aduana St. Haha! Long ride, eh?! :))


Tickets for four!

Wan is Legazpi bound by 7:00pm. We cooled down in one of the best restaurants that offer delectable halo-halo and home fries! - Ranzon's.


I am super looking forward to more family trips! Such a happy thing! ♥

Batanes Trip: The Engagement

We woke up to the flapping of the tent. Our bright yellow shelter braved the winds of Itbayat in the morning of April 15, 2014. Tito Dan...
