Spent the Holy Thursday mid-afternoon in MOAP with family and relatives. It’s a good chance to test out some panoramic shots taken with Sony NEX-C3, lens used were SEL16F28 pancake lens & AF Nikkor 50mm f1.8D prime lens.
Spent the Christmas day (noon – late afternoon) with family and relatives in this touristy destination.
Earlier this month, we tried to book for a night especially for this day, their discounted rate for a 6 person room was really cheap, but all of the rooms were already fully booked by a family for their clan reunions. Too bad, we liked the place so much that my dad who isn’t really fond of staying overnight at nearby places miraculously planned to have an overnight stay, what timing it was. Would really love to rent some tents for the night though.
Camera: Ricoh GR Digital 2.
Places: EGI Taft Tower Hotel, Manila Ocean Park, SM Mall of Asia, NAIA3
Trip Period: Nov 19 – 21, 2011
Tons of photos ahead.
Had our short vacation at Dapitan City on 10.30.11 then came home the next day.
Readied everything what’s needed for our Dakak beach resort trip but ended up not going due to the overly high entrance fee.
Last time we visited was just Php200.00/person (100 for entrance, 100 for consumables), now it’s soaring like crazy amount of Php500.00, but according to the receptionist, the entrance fee is already free then the 500.00 is the consumable amount. Since we weren’t planning on staying overnight there, we gave it a no-go, it’d be waste of money if we cannot finish spending the consumable amount within the duration of stay which is just the afternoon only.
Since the plan didn’t work out, we ended up going to Dipolog City for a quick tour then go back to Dapitan late in the afternoon.
ALL photos taken with a Nikon D3000 & AF-S Nikkor 35mm 1.8G.
Took a short vacation with family on August 28 since the following two days(29mon & 30tue) were holidays.
This time, we didn’t miss out the opportunity to take a small vacation to Manila. It’s kinda embarrassing to admit that it was my first time visiting the capital despite my (old) age, well.. unlike the younger generations which has waaaay too many travel experiences than I have.
Anyway, we departed from our local airport at 7:55am then arrived in Manila at around 9:30am. Didn’t have much detailed photos during the trip, will just leave you with the photos I took. This time, it’s day 01 arrival.
