Although it is really sad to imagine that this calamity happened to us, hundreds of lives vanished and thousands of families lost their homes because of typhoon Ondoy, I am still glad that during this time, we also felt the heroism and the brotherhood at work. People volounteered themselves in the service of those affected by the typhoon. Hopefully this will continue.
According to some reports, the government was already late in serving those who are affected. The Department of National Defense and those its army personnel, the police and even those who are new recruits were called to serve and help in relief and cleaning operations. As expected, diseases will rise after a few days of this calamity. Hopefully, those who are still in nursing school, medicine and those who took up medical coding training courseswill also volunteer their service to those Filipinos who were terribly affected by this calamity.

Last holiday my wife and I decided to have another thrill adventure. We didn’t really plan to stay overnight apart from to visit Tagaytay to discover new restaurants and places to stay. We just decided to pack things for over night in case we will discover something exciting.
We told ourselves that almost all of the hotels would be fully booked since it’s a long holiday during that time. We did not even bothered to try any place in Tagaytay and headed further to Batangas instead and see some of the resorts that we saw in the internet. But due to the traffic congestion at that time that we were in Tagaytay, we decided to have our lunch there before going straight to Batangas and it was 2:00 pm already when we left Tagaytay.
On our way to Batangas, we passed by the Evercrest Golf and Country Club in Nasugbu. It is not our first time to see the place but the last time we were there was new year’s eve of 2008. We never realized that this was the time and chance to stay in the place. Luckily the club had a current promotion which is discounted overnight stay in the place.
We had a great stay that night although they didn’t have wi fi connection in every room apart from that in the restaurant and they only have local cable channel. If you want a quiet and relaxed atmosphere in the place you’re staying in, this is a place to stay for the family. No need to have central vacuum anymore since the place is surrounded by nature and green grass of the golf course.
You can let your kids swim in the swimming pool from the club near to the place for free since it is still part of the club. The breakfast area in their restaurant is so refreshing and relaxing too since it overlooking the golf course. I look forward to come back and stay in Evercrest again.
