Travel Preparation Tips
Are you planning for a Summer vacation? Perhaps you’re invited to go for a Boot camp or Retreat conference out of town/country? It can be exciting and it’s best to prepare ahead! Been there many times, and let’s start on taking out that luggage, clean it inside and out and organize a list on what to bring.

T-rex At Pit Airport
We saw this T-rex bone model at Pittsburgh International airport. I’m glad I took this snap after my kids and I went down the escalator. I thought this is a beautiful touch inside the airport where people are very busy. When I approached the model, I read that it’s promoting Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh. My family and I loves to visit museums and I hope we can go down there as it is just 5 hours away from our house.

Beautiful Sunrise
When we got inside our ship around 6:30 AM, we saw a spectacular view of the Sunrise. I immediately got a feeling that my vacation is going to be a good one. I’m glad that our jetlag didn’t hit us quickly and that we were able to enjoy what’s going around us that time. I am so thankful to God that I got to visit Philippines after 5 years. It seems like it’s been ages. It was different staying there because I have the kids with me. Many people didn’t see them for a long time. I am happy to… Continue reading
Inside A Ship
It was around 7AM that our ship is going to depart from Cebu. We took 2GO ship, formerly known as Supercat Co., and it is a nice ship for me. As for my father’s observation, he wasn’t impressed because he felt the ship vibrating while it’s engines are on. It makes him dizzy. For me, I didn’t mind very much of it. I like the huge windows because you can see lots of things outside the ship. You can see another ship parking on either sides. My kids really enjoyed watching outside the window. Little G kept on pointing at… Continue reading
Waiting For The Ship
We took a fastcraft type of a ship that will take us from Cebu to Bohol, Philippines. We stayed in the airport and waited 7 hours before the Cebu Port is going to open. We waited 1 hour in the passenger’s waiting area before the ship’s departure time. There is a Custom Check point before going inside the passenger’s area. They also have K9 dogs that will inspect each luggage and bags that you have. I noticed they are trying their best to make the passengers feel secure before going inside the building and on their trips.
