Legazpi Escapade Day 2

Hello, dear readers!

As promised, here is Day 2 of our Legazpi Adventure!

I fell deeper in love with the place the next morning I woke up. Guess what greeted me to an amazing morning!

The volcano says "hello!" at 6 in the morning!

Good morning!

We came down to have breakfast at Jasmine, the hotel's in house restaurant. 

Boy, were we in for a treat! The Oriental Legazpi's breakfast buffet was too fabulous for words. Dear readers, feast your eyes on the breakfast feast that The Oriental Legazpi offers!

Yep, that's my plate. :)

The fruit station

BACON!!!

Adobo and bacon

Eggs!



Gotcha, hon!

After our hearty breakfast, we were off to Cagsaua ruins! 

I was in awe when we finally reached the place. I remember when I was in grade school browsing through the photos of this majestic place. Who would have thought I would be standing in the same place having my own pictures taken? The best part of it was, Kelvin and our awesome friends Jo, Em, Joma, and Joyce were there to share the moment. 

Here are some snaps of our Cagsaua Ruins experience:











Enough of the pictures from the ruins; now on to the real adventure: ATV!!!

It was my first time to try such an activity; I was terrified before we started but , boy, did I have a blast! This was surely one of the Top 2 highlights of this vacation.

Here are some snaps of the adventure:

















Whew! What a rush that was. 

But the adventure wasn't done. We stopped by Lignon Hill before lunch and we bought a few odds and ends. I ended up buying two bags (one for me and my mom).

The boys showing us girls how we post for pictures.









Exhausted and sweaty from our adventure, we treated ourselves to a sumptuous lunch at Mr. Crab.

Lookie, shrimps!










Oh, sunburn!


When we got back to the hotel, we decided to rest for a bit and then meet again in an hour for dip in the pool.

And another round of fun it was!

You'll notice that there are no pictures of Kelvin and me together; that's because when these pictures were taken, we just had a terrible fight and I wasn't talking to him. I had one of my crazy moments where I snapped and broke up with him. But we fixed all things up after all our friends had left us alone in the pool.

Enough about our LQ, let's move on to the photos, shall we?

Hello, ladies!

Joma and Joyce





And just when you thought we were exhausted for the day, we went out of the hotel again! But just for dinner, of course. We went to Embarcadero, one of the hottest places for families to tour and visit in Legazpi. We couldn't find other places to eat that looked good so we had dinner at Mr. Bigg's.





The contrite Kelvin :)



We went back to the hotel after our delightful dinner to rest our bodies in preparation for Day 3's Adventure.

What's in store for Legazpi Day 3, you say? Look out for my next blog!

[K&L] Buti na lang Hanggang Ngayon



Sabi nila, sa umpisa lang daw magaling ang mga lalaki.


Dati, lagi kang sinusundo; ngayon, ite-text ka na lang kung san kayo magkikita.

Dati, lagi kang hinahatid; ngayon, ite-text ka na lang at tatanungin ka kung nakauwi ka na.

Dati, pinagbubuksan ka ng pinto; ngayon, nauuna pa sa iyo, o kaya iintayin ka na lang sa labas o sa loob.

Dati, ipinagbubuhat ka ng gamit, kahit na puro glitters at flowers ang shoulder bag mo.
Ngayon, kahit magkanda-kuba ka na sa dala mo, isa na lang ang dadalhin nya.

Dati, madalas ka nyang nililibre; ngayon, KKB na.

Dati, lahat ng gusto mong pelikula, panonoorin nya para sayo.
Ngayon, bahala ka na manood mag-isa o kasama ng mga kaibigan mo.

Dati, iintayin ka muna bago kumain; ngayon, pag dating mo, tapos na syang kumain, binawasan pa ang pagkain mo.

Dati, binibigyan ka ng bulaklak; ngayon, tinetext ka na lang.

Dati, lagi kang nireregaluhan; ngayon, swerte na kung mabati sa Facebook.

Dati, araw-araw kang tinetext; ngayon, "good morning" at "good night" na lang.

Dati, lagi kayo nagkikita; ngayon, weekend na lang.

Dati, lagi kayo magkasama; ngayon, lagi na lang kalaro ang barkada.

Dati, pag nag-aaway kayo, sya ang laging nauuna magsorry; ngayon, sya pa ang nauunang magtaas ng boses.

Dati, pag di mo pinapansin sa text, hindi ka titigilan ng tawag o text; ngayon, tuwang tuwa pa at di mo kinakausap.






Buti na lang si Kelvin hindi nagbabago...

Hanggang ngayon, madalas pa rin nya ako sinusundo.

Hanggang ngayon, madalas pa rin nya ako hinahatid.

Hanggang ngayon, pinagbubuksan pa rin nya ako ng pinto.

Hanggang ngayon, ipinabbi-bitbit pa rin nya ako ng gamit; kahit yung napakaliit na bag na sparkly pink.

Hanggang ngayon, nililibre at dine-date pa rin nya ako.

Hanggang ngayon, sinasamahan pa rin nya ako manood ng mga pelikula ni Channing Tatum.

Hanggang ngayon, hinihintay pa rin nya ako bago kumain.

Madalas, ibinibigay pa nya sakin ang mga hipon at mushroom mula sa plato nya, kasi alam nya paborito ko ang mga yon.




Hindi na nya ako binibigyan ng bulaklak, kasi puro regalo, aso, bag, power extension, at kung ano ano ang ibinibigay nya.

Hanggang ngayon, nireregaluhan pa rin nya ako at binabati sa Facebook.

Hanggang ngayon, araw-araw pa din nya ako tine-text; at nagagalit pa pag di ako nagrereply.

Hanggang ngayon, halos araw-araw kami nagkikita.

Hanggang ngayon, lagi pa rin kami magkasama, kasama man ang barkada o pamilya.

Hanggang ngayon, kahit ako ang may kasalanan, sya pa rin ang nag-so-sorry.

Hanggang ngayon, spoiled pa rin ako.


Hanggang ngayon, di sya nagbabago.

Pitong taon mo na akong hinahatid, sinusundi, dine-date, kinukulit, tinutulungan, sinasamahan, tine-text, tinatawagan, pinagsisilbihan at minamahal.

Pinatunayan mo sakin na di ka katulad ng iba. Pinatunayan mo na mali sila.

Thank you, hon. For everything that you do; for not changing.

I love you.

Happy 7th Anniversary.
