Destination Vacation: Aberdeen Sampan, Hong Kong

Aberdeen Sampan main entrance

Aberdeen Sampan Tour Company

            It was almost lunch time when we dropped by Aberdeen Sampan, a tour company in here in Hong Kong Island. They have boats available for touring around the Aberdeen shore for 30 - 45 minutes. From afar, we saw small and large yachts and the tourist boats known as Sampan.  In addition, hiring those boats is the best way for tourists to get an excellent view of the harbour of the south shore of Hong Kong Island. As for us, we hired a boat good for 15 persons with a female operator.

Guisi Clearwater Resort, Guimaras Province

         Welcome to Guisi Clearwater Resort!

It was the first time for all of us to be here. We arrived around 11 noon at the resort. Their main pathway from the highway going down to the resort was a struggle for us. The small concrete paths are not that safe due to the stones and soils which are scattered everywhere. I observed from there that it was not properly maintained. However, we still looked forward for an exciting summer vacation.

Ruins, Lighthouses and Manggahan Festival only in Guimaras

        After a two-day vacation in Guimaras last April, 2012, our itinerary was to witness the annual Manggahan festival of the province. However, some of my friends urged us to climb up to the lighthouses nearby.

        Going up was quite tough. There is a concrete staircase which is literally broken after maybe six steps. Unfortunately, it is connected with a wooden stairs which of course very unstable and some of the steps can easily be removed because the nails are already corroded. Then it is again connected with another concrete staircase all the way up to the ruins and the lighthouses.

Fiesta Cove, Sipalay City

Rest and Recreation at Fiesta Cove, Sipalay     


          My colleagues and I had our rest and recreation at Sipalay City, Negros Occidental last summer of 2010. Everyone was excited to go to a newly heard beach resort located in the south of the Negros province. We left early in the morning and all things were ready and intact inside the bus. As usual, you are going to see the photos that me and boyfriend took from the start of the trip down to our destination. So, buckle up and hope you will enjoy the ride!

That's me and my boyfriend in the bus. That's my friend busy writing about something for whatever that was, we were all ready to go!

Dumaguete City

       Last December, 2006, friends and I had a vacation at Dumaguete City. I and my colleagues were very fascinated with the city since it is our first time to visit the place. We didn’t mind the heavy rain on that day while we were on the city. Honestly, there was typhoon, yet we enjoyed eating ice cream. Our bus stopped in front of the statue of the nuns from St. Paul where we decided to buy two (2) kinds of cakes at cake house nearby.
