Back from Cebu

We're back from a relaxing and fun vacay in Cebu :D

It would have been an even better one, if not for my horrible experience flying home.  Click on this link to find out what happened.

Scenic Korea

I'm still not done uploading photos in Facebook :( Been very busy preparing for the opening of Forever 21 in SM Cebu.  Sigh!

Here's another nice photo I'd like to share.  I love the fall colors and the scenery here:

I will try my best to post next week, but work comes first.  Keeping my fingers crossed ;)

Box of Goodies

Do you remember that we went to London over the summer?  Of course, shopping was involved, and we were obviously overweight with our luggage.  So, we asked our friend, Jeff, to pack our old clothes (and other items) in a balikbayan box.  We were able to fill up the box(es) by the end of August, and it arrived last week :D

I filled it up with blanket sets from IKEA, a nespresso machine for my parents, and a nescafe dolce gusto for us.  Hubby was so excited to try it tonight:

More reasons to host dinners soon :D

Water Baby

It was another two days filled with water fun for Little J, as we checked in at the H2O hotel, courtesy of Samsung Smart TV.  We were invited to try this amazing TV—will do a review on this on my next post :)

In the meantime, let me share with you how we spent the overnight stay at Manila Ocean Park :D

Their hallway reminded me of the cruise ships that I've been on

The Aqua Room is an amazing room to stay in.

Little J was in awe and kept saying hi to the fishes :)

I've been wanting to stay here, and even spend Little J's birthday here, but they're always fully booked.  I'm really thankful that Samsung invited us to stay here :)

After checking in, we went down to buy Manila Ocean Park tickets.

First, was the the Oceanarium.  Hubby and I are impressed.

This "lounge" is pretty cool.  See those stingrays being fed?

They even have "shark encounters." Scary!

We tried their Glass Bottom Boat Ride.

The guide was very knowledgeable.  You can ask him anything about the fishes in this area.

Upon exit, we saw these snow-themed "exhibits"

Apparently, the penguins are coming this November :D

Then, it was off to the Sea Lion Show.

It was pretty hot, at 430pm — it was their last show. 

Best to bring an umbrella to protect yourself from the heat, not the water splashes as some might think.

Last stop was the Dancing Jellies

I love the music that they were playing, which is actually Pachabel by Canon D — the song used in most weddings.

Then, dinner at MakanMakan. They have very affordable Asian dishes.

Back at the hotel room, Little J kept playing with the remote control of the curtain.

We had him take his shower in the tub. Love that there's a great view of the aquarium :D

Here's a super short video of him brushing his teeth :D

Hubby and I enjoyed the Samsung Smart TV immensely!

Will share our thoughts on this next week :D

Chicago Popcorn Tub was a perfect accompaniment, too!

Thanks, Samsung :D

Water Fun

Spent the weekend with my family and my mom at Fontana, Clark, Pampanga.  Dad was supposed to join us, but he's still a bit under the weather.  Hope he feels better soon!

Little J had tons of fun at the Water Park :D  Here are some of our priceless photos:

The next day, I dressed up my two boys in matching shirts that I got from my recent Bangkok trip. Cute noh? :)






Little J took this photo using my camera :D



Here's a family pic of the three of us.  I'm wearing a floral romper that I got from the Forever 21 sale in SM Megamall over the weekend—only P400+! 



Thank you, Mamita, for the trip :D
