My Country

I am from the Philippine Islands, a country surrounded by water, beautiful beaches and blessed with lots of sunshine.

With the good deed of a friend, the gang was able to go and had a grand day at Anvaya Cove in Bataan and Hamilo Coast, Pico de Loro, Batangas.

A feel of nature . . . the sun, sand, sea, trees and mountains . . . wow!

At Anvaya Cove, there is a nature trail for you to enjoy plus a Zipline ride you can try with friends.


Though, how I wish I could go for a real kayaking adventure. Have not included it in my list of "to do's".

I've tried a banana boat ride but that's far from the thrills of kayaking.

Oh well, that day of more thrills and adventures will surely come. It will.

Here at Hamilo Coast, Pico de Loro, Batangas.

Safari Experience

At A' Famosa, I captured my Safari moments in pictures. I asked a number of staff there the favor of taking my photos for I was a lone traveler, but a happy one.

We were asked to ride a vehicle that goes around the place so we can see the lions, the tigers, the giraffes, roaming around, not minding us at all.

There were birds, peacocks, crocodiles, deers, bulls, elephants, monkeys and people, yup. I was not alone for there were people in groups. There was even a religious group who took the tour. (Tourist attractions visited: Genting, Malacca City, Batu Caves, A' Famosa, Melaka)

A place was allotted where the animals stayed inside fences. You just walk around ( good exercise) and of course, take souvenir photos.

I got to ride an elephant. I missed out the camel ride.

I was hopping from one area to the next, as time flew by quickly, forgetting about Jack, my loyal "teksi" driver, who I think took his nap.

It felt good to be here.
