Holiday Activities

It was a short notice holiday activity with my mom, sister, and friends at the Davao Crocodile Park.

People behind the improvements of this place really did a great job! Visiting the place doesn't only end you up watching and taking photos of birds, snakes, crocodiles, etc. but is also an educational/ entertainment tour.

Friday, Saturday, or Sunday is the best day to go and visit the park because of the educational and entertain shows they prepared for the visitors.

At 4:00 p.m., the show starts with an animal show

followed by the Pangil (eye-tooth) encounter.

 After, we witnessed the feeding and dancing of the crocs and the tightrope walking by some trained acrobats. I'm not sure if they really are professional but one thing I'm certain is they scared the hell out of me!.

Some other animals you can see in the park...

bored or sleepy?

Last part of the tour was at Tribu K' Mindanawan - a cultural dance show and FIRE DANCING!!!!!

What a way to end  the tour! Hopefully, I could finish editing the video soon...in the meantime, a photo of the fire dance.

Well, that's one tiring but enjoyable tour and that deserves a hearty meal and...

How did you spend your weekend?

Brrrrr Months

Here in the Philippines, September 1 is the day that the Christmas season is just around the corner. Early in the morning, local radio stations play our all-time favorite Christmas songs..isn't it wonderful?

BUT....

Before talking about the yuletide season, let me give a you a glimpse of what happened to me for the rest of the month of August. I know I haven't been blogging for weeks now because of my hectic schedule. But, anyway, here it goes...

I've mentioned in my last blog about the Kadayawan sa Dabaw Festival.  This festival is all about beauty, street dances, floral floats, flowers, and the King of Fruits: DURIAN!

The highlight of this month was when one of my close friend, Aina,  had her vacation. It was a 2-day event full of catching ups, food, and...getting tipsy? HAHA!!!
