Fun times with Friends in SFO


It was a lovely day Sunday Oct 13. Throughout the day, the sky was clear and bright. No fog for a typical SFO weather. It was a bit chilly morning. It reminded me that fall is already here and the cold season will be here soon.

Bahamas 2013

Sorry if this is a late post from my travel to the Bahamas. I've got long videos and it's hard to chose which one to add. This is only a bit of my what I have but I want you to see how beautiful the island is.

July 4th Fireworks in the Bahamas

This is a late post. I had a very good trip in the Bahamas. One of the coolest thing was to celebrate with a free food given by the couple we've met when we had a morning swim in the hotel and joined them for dinner to witness this spectacular firework show.

All photos were taken hand held. I had fun taking all of these.

St Maarten 2013 Part 2




Though my heart is weary, looking at this video from my recent trip uplifted my spirit.

In this video I used my recent HD camera Sony HDR CX380 and D90. I wasn't fully happy on the quality of the video. I was expecting more of it which somehow was really a disappointment. But I have to use what I've got. Money doesn't grow on trees. I am practical, you know? Hmmm...

For me, this was only a little step up on our previously old Sony handy camera and canon digital camera. I think my D90 has more ability to take better videos if using prime lens. But on the other hand the panning is jittery. It's a disaster. So I really have mixed emotions on the video.

But at the end of the day, I am happy that I had something I could keep and remember through these videos.

St Maarten 2013




Hi Everyone!

Here's the latest video I made with my recent travel in the South of Caribbean. It's an island called St. Maarten. I had a pretty relaxing trip. I didn't explore the whole island. The intent was to simply take lots of rests and I did.

I will be making more videos later on. There are plenty in my archive and it's hard to choose which one could be good in one video. But hopefully I can make probably soon.. Watch for it!

As for now, hope you like this!

Camotes Island Experience

Camotes Island is 2 hours away from Danao Cebu. You can go to the island either by a ferry, ro-ro, fastcraft, and a pumpboat just whatever suits your budget. I took a ferry from Jumalia Shipping Lines that left the port at 12noon. The boat arrived at past 2pm in San Francisco. We got out and were directed to a private van by the staff of Mangodlong Paradise Resort. They took us to the resort in silence. Hubby tried a few questions but the staff was not too friendly with us. Maybe it’s the heat or something. There was all silence in the car.
What a scene to enjoy your afternoon?

"No Stock Mam, Sir"

Well, I didn’t really know about this until I’ve heard it one day in Mcdonald’s beside Gaisano Fiesta Mall while I was on vacation in Cebu Philippines.


There was this guy, his Filipina wife and a child who sat behind me. I didn’t eavesdrop at their conversation but there's no way for me to avoid it. The chairs were too tiny I had no room to give them privacy. While hubby was in front of me, he couldn’t get away with it as well. So we listened. :)

Sumilon Island Adventure

It was not planned nor expected. It was a spare of the moment decision. I came up with the idea since we were already in the south, close to Oslob in Santander that is. We stayed for a night there but had a horrible experience with Noblesse Hotel. So the 2nd day, we decided to move sporadically.

Turtle Bay Dive Resort, Moalboal Cebu

I spent one night in this proclaimed best dive resort in the south of Cebu, Moalboal. Hubby was the one who chose to book it and I got my surprise while I was there. The resort overall is clean. You will feel at home and will be able to relax your eyes from the eye sore of the city. There was silence. No guests in sight. I haven't seen anyone around though I saw towels hanging on some of the balcony in the 2nd floor. I haven't meet any guests at all.
The landscapes are well manicured, pool is heated and has a salt treatment. It maybe treated or maybe the dive masters are teaching the students with not so clean scuba gears. Who knows if it's really a salt treated pool. I forgot to ask. The staff were nice. They still lack foreign standard in treating their guests. I don't care that much since it's acceptable to me and I feel comfortable when they are around.

Durhan white beach, Tabuelan Cebu

This resort is located in Northern Cebu. I was coming from Talisay where my folks live. We took the new Consolation coastal route from Talisay taking SRP to Mandaue. And then, pass Liloan all the way to Sogod. There is a short cut somewhere in Sogod. We drove 30minutes or less riding the Cube Nissan which my brother had trouble driving with a spare tire but able to make it. It was such a relief to be able to get out of the road.

Fom the main road, you will pass unpaved dirt. A couple of areas are cemented. With having a low ride vehicle, it was a pain in the A**. lol! It was like heaven when we reached the entrance gate. I really expect a dramatic entrance but not Jose. The gate was not made of fancy decorated metal or wood carving, it was plain. You could not really remember what it looked like. hahaha...

Global Winter Wonderland, Santa Clara

I had the great time at Santa Clara's Global Winter Wonderland. Hubby and I arrived past 7pm. To get to the ticket entrance you have to pay $10 for parking and $20 for Vip Pass. We chose the $10 and park ourselves. We walked towards the entrance and stood in line for more than an hour. The cold and the chill made it hard to wait but patiently waited. We were starved since we didn't eat dinner that was a bad idea. But we didn't know how the lines to get the ticket. The expectation was to get in line buy a ticket spend an hour but didn't happen. It took us over 3 hours. I had no regrets at all because I like all what's inside.

Oakland California Mormon Temple


I went to this place Saturday night to see how the city looks like on top of the hills. This church happens to be situated on the best spot to see the city. The attraction to this church is not only it's design but it's Christmas decoration too. Probably, it's more beautiful when it's the golden hour or the blue hour. But still getting there was absolutely nice.
