After the pressure packed Christmas week, our family decided to unwind, we decided to bring the kids to the Enchanted Kingdom in Sta. Rosa, Laguna yesterday. It’s less than an hour and a half drive from our place without traffic of course.
I’m not really fond of theme parks and rides, the last time (actually [...]
March of last year when I bought a Cebu Pacific air ticket from Ticket N’ Post outlet in SM Dasmariñas. My wife asked me to cover the class reunion of a high school in Oras, Southern Leyte where my father-in-law was a teacher, but due to unavoidable circumstances, I was not able to use [...]

Buying a map has proven to be effective whenever you are going to an unfamiliar territory. I got myself a map of Cebu (including Mandaue & Mactan) while waiting for our flight at the Ninoy Aguino International Airport (Terminal 2).
