Huling Hirit sa Summer..

Yeah! Finally, a great summer escapade with my family..n_n..

Day 1.June 3..Friday

We left the house at around..quarter to 7. Bea and I actually planned that we should leave at around 4 o’clock (because we want to watch a show on a local channel..We figured out that leaving early would make us arrive there on time and we could watch it..) unfortunately, our father already arrived past midnight last night because of his job. So, we have nothing to do but to go with the flow.

We got to Subic probably between 10 o’clock to 11.30 (I’m not really sure about the time..). The place was absolutely breathtaking! All you can see is green!

Then, we decided to stay at a local hotel called Crown Peak. It’s located far away from downtown. When we finally got into the room, Bea suddenly jumped unto the big sofa bed near the TV and began scanning for something to watch. In the meantime, mommy and daddy began fixing their stuff as well as ours. And of course, I was just there sitting at the sofa bed watching whatever is on TV because I was sick..

Afternoon came and we decided that we’ll go to El Kabayo, a place where you could ride horses just like in Baguio. When we finally arrived at our destination, we were amazed by how beautiful the place is. It was a big ranch filled with green grass. When we looked further inside, it has all the equipment from boots to equestrian caps. Finally, Bea got her horse and started to ride off. I didn’t want to ride because I’m worried that my condition might get even worse or the horse might get sick because of me. Anyway, I had a fun watching my sister (who feels like a real equestrian like Mikee Cojuangco..n_n..) riding a horse..n_n..


We also went to the Jungle and Environmental Survival Training Camp or just JEST Camp.

Day 2..June 4..Saturday

Day 2 has finally come and now we’re planning to go to Ocean Adventure and after that Zoobic Safari. At Ocean Adventure, we watched some Sea Lions, False Killer Whales, and Dolphins perform. I must say that the False Killer Whales and Dolphins we saw today performed better than what I actually saw at my field trip. We also got to look at different sea creatures at the Aquarium and buy some souvenirs at the Souvenir Shop. (Daddy bought me a beautiful desk lamp..n_n..)

Then, we went to Zoobic Safari and first stop is (drum roll please) – ehem…the tigers. When we got there, we laughed when we saw a tiger relaxing itself in a pool! It has its head lying on the rim of the pool..hehehe..n_n..Then, there was another tiger who was just sitting on top of a rock. When everybody decided to get their cameras out, it even stroke a pose! Next in line is a short visit to the Serpentarium where all you could see are various snakes and reptiles. We also went to the Day Care Center, the Honeybee Farm, the real Zoo (I forgot what it was called..), the Tigers' Den (this time tigers are locked up in their cages) and the last stop was the Savannah. It was spectucularly beautiful as you get to see all the animals running free (of course except for the serpents and tigers..n_n..)


Back at the hotel, we had also some funny moments. That night, Bea and I were watching Chobits on Animax. After a few minutes, mommy sat down beside us and began watching as well. While watching, I could hear clearly her laughter. There are really some times that my mother is beginning to love anime as well..ahihihihi..n_n..

Day 3..June 5..Sunday

Nothing really happened interesting on this day because this was the day of our departure back to Manila. Anyway, to top it all, all of us had a great time. Next time, I want to go back to Subic again..n_<..


More News..
Before I forgot, for this whole trip I was actually coughing, blowing my nose off, and obviously having a terrible fever. In fact, I was almost rushed into the hospital. Anyway, thanks to everyone who has been praying for me to get well..n_n..By the way, I can't really talk because my voice is just so jerky probably it is because of my coughs. Before I forget, my first day of school is moved to June 15 so that means..no school yet for me!..n_n..
