Weepee...im going to ride an airplane again and im going to Mindanao!!!!

I have this thing about visiting all the glorious and far flung places in the Philippines and Davao is one of them. This time im travelling with my high school buddies. Planning this trip through email is not a big effort at all, since everything is electronic, the ticket, the information. Saya!

I was a little melancholy before the trip coz we had a delayed flight so i had to spend more time in the Domestic Airport. Coming back and seeing it through the eyes of a traveller and not a Ground Staff flashes back memories of the olden days, naks!

So after an hour of delay, a back to ramp scenario and 1hour 45mins of cruising the sky, We arrived at Davao International Airport.

The best things i would recall about this trip would be:

Pearl Farm, simply world class.

Welcoming the unwelcome. We passed through the back door of Paradise Resort as well as Pearl Farm. When every visitor arrive by pamboat (pumpboat) we arrived either by tricycle (tricycad) or jeep.


Samal in land tour, if you want to experience the hair frizz and oily face, try to hire a jeep and visit the one of a kind places in Samal island.

They are real live bats....

Seafood galore, Sinugba (inihaw), Lato(seaweeds) salad, Kinilawna Tuna (heaven!) and Durian everywhere. I tried the Durian coffee, Yummy!

Longtime catching up talks with friends which is priceless.
Aldevinco, batik and pearls
