Winds

"Sometimes in the winds

of change

direction."

Xyloh at the Palace, Taguig Manila

It has been a long long time since I went out.

Went out to a club.

But, I had to at least go even just one time while I'm here in the Philippines.

Only with Family!

We went to this Club that my cousin went to before.

She was talking about how he had a great time there.

It feels so weird to be here at first but..

It also feels good to be out.

Siblings

Cousins and Family.

I also invited my friend that I haven't seen for years!

So amazing to finally see her!!

It was a pretty cool Club.

What fun night!!!

Festival Mall, Alabang.

It has definitely the best month with my family. 

Our vacation is halfway over. 

Its almost time to go back to reality. 

But, before that time to just enjoy the last few weeks with family.

Feels like we spent a lot of time at the mall here and that's really okay.

I love malls here and I really missed it. 

We went to this mall in Alabang.

I grew up going to this mall all of the time.

After school, weekend fun. 

It has so much memories.

They added the Landmark to it but the rest of the mall pretty much looks the same. 

It's amazing that I went there with my boys. 

First, I had to get them haircuts!!

The mall has this Kids Barber shop.

Perfect for my little one, especially it was his first time going to a barber shop.

I was anxious but I know he'll be fine because I have someone to help me.

It went good!!!

After that we walked around and did something fun.

We let the kids play and we did the bumpy cars!

I remember how I can't even afford to try these before!

It's definitely my first time!!

It was so much fun!!!

After that I let them pick where to eat for dinner.

I don't miss pizza yet or American food but eating here was okay with me.

Look at these pizza though!

ohhhh these beer!

We had the family package that has little bit of everything.

It was a lot of food.

I loved it.

The chicken here taste so different for some reason.

I can eat it everyday!

After that we walked some more.

Ahhh these Hopias!

Its so awesome that they have these.

Fresh!!

We took home a lot!

Try it when you see one.

It was a good day with the family!

Climb

"The best view 

comes after

the hardest climb."

Tanay, Rizal Philippines.

Hello guys!

This is probably my favorite trip in the Philippines!

The weather was finally better so its perfect time to do something fun!

Our destination is Tanay, Rizal Philippines. 

It's about 4-5 hours from where we live.

We left so early to beat the traffic.

Our first stop is Treasure Mountain!

I mean how amazing is that view????

It was a bit of a hike.

But, not too bad.

I think anyone can do it.

It's been raining though so if you plan on going there make sure you

prepare yourself for a really muddy walk.

The views!!!

Sea of clouds!

What an amazing view!

Siblings!

..And our friends.

I've seen so many mountain views in Europe and this is definitely one of a kind.

Just can't compare it. 

The squad.

Oh, look my new friend!!

After that we head straight to El Patio Razon.

Its suppose to be a Bed and breakfast. 

We didn't stay, we just went there to try this experience.

It's called Kawa Bath!!

The fresh air!

I love love this place, so relaxing!

I highly recommend!

The kawa Bath!

Relaxing with this view is definitely priceless!

It was already about lunch time.

So we went and find a restaurant. 

One of our friends works in the area so he knows the best restaurant.

He took us to one of the restaurant that has best Bulalo.

Bulalo is one of the best and most authentic Filipino food!

And this restaurant definitely one of the best Bulalo I've ever had. 

Let's see if there's any place can beat it though!

I also ordered some Sisig.

I think everywhere I went I ordered this!

MY  favorite!

Some fresh Buko to drink!

So yummy!

Friends and Family.

After lunch, Our trip went on.

We were gonna do few more stops but the other one didn't work out.

It was suppose to be the falls.

Since the weather wasn't nice.

The falls was all muddy so we left and just went to our next stop.

The Windmill Farm in Rizal!

It's Beautiful!!

After walking around we got some Filipino snacks and souvenirs!

Our very last stop was the Church.

What a beautiful church!!

Old like churches in Italy, but way different. 

What an amazing trip!!!!!!

It was so much fun but, I'm ready to see my boys!
