Camella Northpoint Clubhouse, Davao Philippines

We stayed at Camella Northpoint when we visit Davao Philippines for our vacation to visit my family. They have really nice clubhouse and pool. The room is just right. They have nice furniture, the bed is comfortable and its a walking distance to my mom's house. You can easily get taxi or ride a jeepney if you want to go to the Mall, Park or to explore the City. The humidity is high so expect to sweat in there. We had great time swimming at the pool with my brother and nieces at this photo. It was nice. The thing my husband and I doesn't like is the noise outside where they are building a new condominium in front of the place where we staying. The rest of it was fine. So I am looking forward to visit again my family in the Philippines couple years from now. Will see...

Exploring time at Bonanza

Bonanza is just a cute little town. It was a pretty drive though. We got a chance to explore the town, the cemetery and look at their houses for sale up there. We took some photos in that old ghost town I forgot the name. We took drive all the way to the top and go back then we see this old mine, I guess. They seems blow it up and leave it there so my husband and brother in law along with my two kids went all the way on top to explore it. There's no trespassing sign so I guess were okay. They just want to see what's up there. Me and my mother in law stay in the car and wait for them. It takes few minutes before they get down and back to the car then we headed to Salida for lunch. It was a nice trip. It's my first time to go there and it's not bad at all. We love to explore ghost town and mining and just enjoy the ride. It's nice to do this kind of stuff with your family, it makes us getting closer together and we appreciate all God's creation and that makes our day last Monday.

Mom and Brother in law visit

We are very happy and thankful that my mother in law and my brother in law come visit with us here in the Valley. They are from Michigan and its a long drive to come here. We went to Michigan 2012 and it was a nice visit, we stay about 2 weeks I guess. This time, they only stay for a week. It was nice though. We take them for a road trip, we went to the mountain, see the mine but we end up didn't go further because of the weather. It snowed a lot on the mountain so we just decided to go to Rock Creek and see some nice rock formation out there. We also eat breakfast at Organic Feddler at Del Norte, it was nice. I had a special omelet and all their food are all organic and gluten free I guess. We also went to Pueblo for a ride, go to La Veta Pass and see some ghost town. This week we went to Bonanza to see the ghost town too and it was a nice drive. Seeing the mountain is really nice and pretty. It was very breathtaking view. They like it and I hope they enjoy their visit here with us. Hope they stay for another week but they already made up their mind to stay a week. Maybe next year they will come back and I am sure we will do a lot of road trips in the mountains and to see the canyons. So will see :-)

At Calvillo's Mexican Restaurant...

Almost every Sunday we go to Calvillo's Mexican Restaurant at Del Norte for dinner. They have pretty good food there. One of our favorite restaurant here in town. Yesterday, it was Saturday we end up eating there again of course with our loving friends Lila and Mary. It was such a nice visit yesterday, they seems like they are doing a renovation, they put the buffet menu in the middle and it looks pretty nice now. My kids says "they are doing upgrade!". So far their menu was taste great, they always have my favorite dish, the enchilada, chicharones, the chili is pretty good too, my kids like the taquitos, rice and meat, the fajitas and their chili rellenos is the best! We will absolutely come back for more! maybe next Sunday? or maybe every next weekend, it depends if we have budget for the family (laughs...)

Kids with Grandma

 

It was an exciting moment for the kids to met their Grandma! It's my mom first time to met my little girl Dana, she met my eldest son last 2007 when he is 19months old. Now, he is a grown up boy, he is 8years old. Its been 7 years before our last visit in my hometown Philippines. I feel really overwhelmed seeing my whole family and friends. Two and a half weeks seems not enough, days went by so fast. But I'm glad everyone is happy and that we enjoy visiting my family. Not sure when we are going to get back but hopefully not for long.

Craving Tostada

I was craving tostada this past couple days and now, mary and I went to the bakery here at downtown and have tostada! Yum! I got two of them actually and Mary order a mini pepperoni pizza. I am not crazy of tostada before, but one time when we had break time from service, we stop by at the local bakery shop in the valley and I order and try their tostada and I was pretty amazed, they had really good tostada here. So I will give thumbs up to Don Thomas Bakery here in San Luis Valley for their good food and service. Thanks!

Huge Zucchini...

 

 

This is the biggest zucchini we ever had! This zucchini is not came from our garden! it came from somebody else garden. Anyhow, a friend of ours give me this huge zucchini and it was heavy! I thought it was a watermelon or some kind of a squash but she told me, one of her friend also give her tons of big huge zucchini from their garden and she dont know what to do with it, so she give me one too because she know I like to make zucchini bread and cookies for the kids. Well, I already cook half of it and give her some zucchini bread and cookies for her kids too. That was nice of her for thinking about me. So I am still thinking to make some more zucchini bread and cookies this week, need to use it before it gets bad, we dont want to waste it. I'll post some photos on my next post. Enjoy!

Fun Pics at Crocodile Park

 

 

These are all our family fun pics when we visited Crocodile Park first week of September, 2014. It was a nice visit and I'm glad to be back in my hometown after 7 years! That was a long time and being there again makes me happy. It's a good experience for the kids to see some other places in Davao and to experience to ride the public transportation in Davao like Jeepney, Tricycle and Taxi :-)

Talking Mynah Bird at the Crocodile Park, Davao Philippines

 

This Mynah Bird really give us a surprise when we visit Crocodile Park, Davao Philippines first week of September. He keep saying "Pangit" (means Ugly). So my daughter and son was laughing when they heard it. It was so cute! When we got back, we hear him saying "hello" to us. That was incredible! :-)

Crocodiles at Crocodile Park Davao Philippines

 

Here are some of the photos we took at the Crocodile Park, we didn't see the biggest crocodile but we saw couples of them. The yearling stage crocodile, the grown up and some big ones too. It was nice, it looks nice than I can remember a long time ago when I visited crocodile park. They also added some other animals like birds, orangutan, pheasants, ostrich, philippine dear and more. We had lunch too at one of their finest restaurant in the area. It was nice :-) We really enjoy our visit at the Crocodile Park, Davao Philippines.

 

My kids holding the eagle and a parrot at Crocodile Park Davao, Philippines

 

This photo was taken when we went to Crocodile Park, Davao Philippines in our two in a half weeks vacation in the Philippines. We visit my family and see some nice places in Davao and one of it is the Crocodile Park. We didn't see the biggest crocodile that time. We saw a lot of crocodiles though, different birds and animals. I can tell that the Crocodile Park is really a nice place to visit. It not as big as a zoo but it worth to visit with the family and we really had fun!

Conquer my fear...

I admit that I have a fear of snake because of the experience I have when I was young. It was so sudden on that moment that I almost past out. But here I am now, willing to conquer my fear. I am really scared to touch or hold a snake but when the moment come when we went to Crocodile Park, Philippines on our vacation last couple weeks ago. I really wanted to try it even just once and see if I can do it. Seems like the snake is very harmless and the lady said, the snake is used to be holding by people so I give it a try and here I am! It takes only couple minutes to hold the snake and I feel nervous and I feel like I'm shaking but I didn't whine or cry :-). Anyway this is the photo of me holding the yellow python at the Crocodile Park, Davao Philippines. I made it! You can't hardly see my fear at this photo, I am still smiling but shaking inside hehe :-)

Our Philippine Trip Jouney...

Hi everybody, "I'm back on blogging!". Just want to keep my blog updated for this week. We just got back for our vacation in the Philippines. I will keep posted all the photos and what we did for that two in a half weeks visit in the Philippines with my family. It was a nice visit, not perfect but I am happy to be back home in my hometown. It was a long ride from here to San Francisco. It takes about 2 days to get there. We stayed for the first night at Needles, California and the next day we stay at the El Rancho Inn Best Western in San Francisco. Our flight to San Francisco to Manila Philippines is about 12-13hrs. It was a long plane flight but it turn out really good. We arrive in the Philippines September 1st and we get back in San Francisco September 17 and we got back last Friday Sept. 19. It was a long trip! Glad to be home safe! now we are back in reality :-)
