Back in April, my family took a 10-day break in Baguio. But somehow the trip took a wrong turn when, one by one, my family (my kids, nephew, nieces, sister, dad) began getting sick with what appeared to be gastroenteritis. I believe it was food- or water-borne.
I had so many plans, so many places in [...]
My family is growing bigger and we no longer fit in the sedan. Not that there’s a new addition (not anymore in the plans, duh). But we are growing – literally.

Whooooaaaa!!!
I was so overwhelmed and taken aback that I just had to run after it. And try to get a closer picture. I finally caught up with it at a stoplight, and got this shot -

It’s been a while since my last Photo Hunter entry.
Today’s theme is Bird/s.
I have quite a few interesting ‘bird’ photos.
A sparrow scavenges for food. I like how it is camouflaged with the background.

An ostrich at Zoobic Safari, Subic – one of my family’s favorite destinations. (Subic, [...]
Last week in November 1, I was told by the Cebu Pacific call center agent to call after one week to follow up on the status of my complaint.
On October 31, three transactions were charged to my credit card account after I tried booking online during the 1-Peso Seat Sale. All three transactions had error [...]

How safe is booking online for flights and vacation destinations?

CEB allots 100,000 seats for our sought-after P1 seat sale to all destinations!
Travel June 15 to September 30, 2010.
