Bacolod's Mambukal Beach Resort

It's officially our Day 1 in Bacolod. So breakfast was ready when we woke up. It really felt like we were staying in a hotel. Oh I almost forgot to mention, we got our own toilet and bath inside the guest room (or should I say, house? haha). So we took a shower then had breakfast, which was much like of a feast.

We're off to Mambukal Beach Resort! But before heading there, we dropped by a wet and dry market to buy chips, softdrinks, fruits, and meat to grill at the resort. Anyway, it was around an hour or less of travel from the house to the resort. We paid Php50 each at the entrance. We rented a cottage for Php300. Actually, the cottages were fully booked. We just got a cottage originally reserved by a different group because we arrived earlier than they did haha!

Team Shades!:))

 late lunch and too much nibbling of childhood chips that we missed haha

 super sweet mangoes!!!

We trekked going to the falls. There were seven waterfalls going up. But it rained so bad when we were at the second falls so we didn't bother to go further. It could've been more fun if we were able to see the seventh waterfalls. Some of us never actually planned of swimming at the falls but because of the rain, we got soaked! We had no other choice but to enjoy it! There were some kids there who acted as tour guides, and even if we didn't actually call them, they wouldn't leave us. So we just gave them fifty bucks for taking our photos.




 what a nice view of the first waterfalls


Swimming is not allowed on the first waterfalls

 While we were here, it rained so hard.

 the kids gave us this! so cute! haha

 Then we want back to the first waterfalls and broke the rules hahaha!

should i have know that it will rain, i should've worn swimsuit!:))

Only 2 of us were supposed to swim; thus, the swimsuits.:))

 satisfied kids trekking back to the base haha

We headed back to the cottage and changed our clothes. We didn't have time to swim at the pool and explore the butterfly garden anymore because we had to catch the Electric Masskara parade at the Tourism Strip (Lacson St.). On our way home, we took a quick stop at the new city hall for some photo ops! haha:))


jump shot!:)

Check my next post for the Masskara Festival at night!:)

Valentine's Weekend

February 12-13
Overnight Trip
Seafront Resort at Iba, Zambales

Singles' Out of Town Trip! For those who weren't singles before the trip, they were already singles after the trip! haha! I dunno why there were so many couples breaking up before, during, and after Valentine's day.

I had the best road trip ever! It's the birth of the Mobile Club/Bar plus a new group called KSP. No need to share what it means haha!=))

Right after Zambales, we went to Manor Superclub to celebrate Chinese New Year and Single's Valentine's haha!=)) Thanks DJ Ace for inviting us. We're too tired to party much so we just chilled at Jack's Loft.

The day I wished was not part of the Calendar haha!=))

Dinner date with Angelia at Mr. Kurosawa. Dani came, so were the Jabbawockeez guys. Haha so cool we got introduced, at least I didn't need to purchase a ticket just to meet them hahaha!=)) Too bad I forgot my camera at home.

MOBILE CLUB!!! :)

Long trips by land are great when you know how to enjoy during the trip...

I and eight more friends planned an overnight trip to a friend's resort in Zambales last February 12.

On our way to Iba, Zambales, around 10pm...

We brought Encore on the roads! Who says we can't party on a Friday night while on an out of town trip???

van + strobes + party music + party people =  MOBILE CLUB/BAR!!!!




MORE VERSIONS COMING SOON.
Our favorite was the NLEX drive on our way back to Manila. It's so funny how the toll gate persons reacted. hahaha!=))

ONE OF THE BEST ROAD TRIPS EVER!
