Summer 2014: sunscreen x sunburns

This Summer, me and my cousin together with his husband--( soon to be) went to different places. From Nature's falls in Rizal to virgin beaches in the Batangas. From Clubhouse pool to Iba, Zambales.

DARANAK FALLS (TANAY, RIZAL)

First we went to 'Daranak Falls' in Tanay, Rizal. It is one of the province's tourist destination. It was a mainstream for all the city people when it comes to a fast getaway escaping the city. 20-30 minutes from Katipunan Ave. and you'll there! I used to go there when I was a kid, I still can remember but it was obscure when I rethink of it.

BUROT BEACH (CALATAGAN, BATANGAS)

2 weeks after, we went to Burot beach in Calatagan, Batangas (We got accompany) together with my cousin, Kuya Nilo and his cousins with EK. It was our second time to visit burot and there's quite a lot of people not just like when we visited it last September 2013, I think we're only 5 campers there. 

I have to confess, it was my first time to drink 'Red horse beer' and I drunk 4 bottles of it with a starter of Emperador light, GOSH! who's wasted and suffered from hangover the next day. It was also bizarre when we're packing our things to leave Burot then suddenly, EK left the car keys on the trunk and we all have no choice but to crash the 1/4 of the car's window. Tsk Tsk :) I thought I got super tanned by there but thanks to the SPF lotion because it save my skin.


1 week after, we went to my cousin's house together in Cavite to watch the Pay-per-view rematch fight of Pacquiao and Bradley. But instead of watching the game, I decided to watch over EK at the clubhouse swimming pool. No Choice! me and my nephew Chelai go swim with her. It was a fun day though I got some serious sunburn because I didn't put any sunblock on my skin. Who to blame? :) It is Sunday and we ended the night by having a mass with palaspas in our hands at the nearest church.

BATAAN & ZAMBALES

A week after, here we go! WERE GOIN' NORTH! Oops! Holy Week, it's time to magnilay-nilay at magbalik loob sa diyos. We still remember Christ's even though we're off set for vacation. Thursday morning we leave Manila to go to Bulacan to fetch Kuya Nilo's relatives and went to a Pabasa still in Bulacan. After the Pabasa thing we went straight to Bataan to rest our body, before going to bed I watched a movie of Regine Velasquez and it was quite good :) also EK took a photo of us of Karl, Kuya Nilo's nephew.

Friday morning, I woke up with a freeze feeling, someone put a prank on me! Who turned on the Fan!? :)We ate Eggs, Fried rice, Danggit (salty sun-dried fish), and a lobster *wow* after we ate our breakfast, No ligo deretso Botolan, Zambales na! but we brushes our teeth naman.

It's almost evening when we got there so the house keeper prepares our dinner for that night and took some shots of Tequila, we also watch some couple of movies before hitting the bed. Saturday morning, WHOAH! I woke up with another prank! Kuya Nilo pulled our feet to wake us up, my goodness. We ate Hotdogs, meat loafs, and fried rice that morning. While on our way to Iba, Zambales, we were looking for some slurpee and 7/11 doesn't have any of those, thank god I found one. We also fetch Tom from their house who has a beach resort, nice diba? :)

 Touchdown Lindamar by the sea, It's our second time around here together with the same old gang but this time without PJ (Karl's cousin). Some prepare foods and WE enjoyed the sea on a summer day. Someone visited us from Palauig? I guess. It's Kuya Dex, Kuya Ernie's cousin. The ladies and gentlemen were off to swim and we still have a visitor coming that's why I presented my self to cook the Liempo in the uling. First time ko lang mag ihaw! :) Si Tom tigapaypay ako tiga sigaw kapag lumiliyab na yung uling. Hahahaha! But still, it was a survival skill. COMMERCIAL: watch my cooking skills in Zambales

 The sun was setting and the tides were getting strong. Karl, Tom, and I also discussed about Summer music festivals around the world like Summer siren or Tomorrowland, the one in Belgium. We all have a taste EDM. On the road going back to Botolan, we sang "Biglang liko" Ate Rio's currently favorite music. The next day, we went to this place called Simbahan sa Bundok where celebrities used to go there like Vilma Santos and Sharon Cuneta, Driving home back to Bataan, we went to Royal Subic stop by and bought some addictive Frit-C's and ate some famous mami house in Olonggapo. Bataan, we said bye's to them na and prepare to leave the house, BUT we're still going back to Zambales in May somehow cause' they got a fiesta there in Botolan.

My summer was really awesome! Thanks to the crew and see you again :)
