Majayjay version 1.07 ( Taytay Falls )






Dumarating ang panahon na kailangan nating magtiis sa kainitan ng tag araw, at dun sa mga walang aircon sa bahay natulad ko ay napipilitang bumili ng swimming pool na di hangin, Pero ano nga ba ang kayang gawin nito kundi ang panandaliang alisin ang init sa katawan habang ikaw ay nakababad sa tubig. Sa kabila ng matagal na paghihintay ng tubig para mapuno ang pool kakambal nito ang bill sa tubig na ubod ng laki..




Dumating ang aking barkada mula sa bansa ng mga Arabo. siya ay nag request sa akin na ipasyal ko sila ng kanyang magiina. Gamit ang pikup ng aking ama kasama ang isa ko pang barakada at gf kami ay nagpunta sa Majayjay Laguna.. medyo malayolayo pero sulit naman. sayang lamang at hindi kami pwedeng magpalipas ng gabi duon, dahil kasama namin ang kanyang isang taong gulang na anak.




Malamig ang tubig masarap maligo, ultimo ay naliligo ka sa pitsel na punong puno ng nyebe. saglit lang ang itinagal ng iba sa tubig dahil sa dulot na kalamigan nito. Pero ako ay di magpapatalo sa lamig sayang naman ang ginastos kung panunuorin kolang ang tubig..




Pag katapos ay umakyat kami at kumain ng pansit habhab, sa tindahan kung saan kami nanaghalian ng longanisa lucban at kalderetang kalabaw. Masarap at malasa ang aming kinain. sayang lang talaga at di kami makakatagal pa ng kauinti.. pero okay narin.. alam naman naming hindi ito ang huling punta sa majayjay dahil sa ganda ng lugar na ito hindi mo pagsasawaan at iyong babalik balikan....

The Villa Escudero Experience (mayo singko)

There is nothing much to say about the outing at Villa Escudero, except that its a nice place to visit once or twice in your life. This is really a tourist destination, with its tourist friendly schemes, it's one of the place a tourist must visit.

Upon arrival you'll be welcomed by very friendly people, not to mention the very sweet welcome drink. You'll then be escorted by a singing couple while riding a carabao cart to the main destination. From there you can choose where you want to go.

Me i prefer to go bamboo rafting and take pictures of the beautiful scenery at once. then eat lunch within the vicinity of the man made falls. Some of my officemates did not bother to take a shower with the refreshing water falls but i beg to differ. After that I did some more swimming in the pool and more river rafting..

To cut to the chase I would sure go back, but I'll make sure that I'm with my GF.

Lipa Fiesta (May 3, 2007)







Once a year, Every third day in the month of May, I would find myself in a barrio called "kayumanggi" in the city of Lipa, Batangas. Why? Some may think its becoz of the free food, others becoz of the free booze, and maybe because a promise was made. Every year a same old scenario will be in place. some changes will occur due to the availability of the other guest but the routine will stay the same. . after eating different kind of foods, after drinking bottles/cans of beer, after smoking countless sticks of cigarettes and after the countless hours of exchanging stories, it will come down to goodbye and the promise that we will be back next year... and so this is my sixth straight times that i been a guest in the hometown of my friend Victor (boss vic) Cuenca during fiesta..
