It has been our tradition to go out of town during new year’s day if we are here in the metro. We are doing this to avoid too much smoke from the fire crackers especially since we have a kid. Tagaytay has always been the place where we usually stay although we also tried Cavite once at the Island Cove. That’s why we are now searching for another place in Tagaytay to stay. Hopefully it will be one with a pool equipped with pool heat pumps .

It is really hard to book a hotel and resort place during holidays. Like what happened to us when we decided to be out of town and be in Bagac, Bataan five days before the Lenten holidays. Almost all of the beautiful resorts in that place were fully booked. Luckily, one of our brethren was able to book us to the NPC Hotel and Resort Village. I first doubted about that place since it is a government owned place and we thought it would be jam-packed with people. But I realize that if you want something cozy, quiet, and affordable place to stay in Bagac, Bataan thrn this place is perfect to you and your family. The place is old since I think it was built during Marcos time but it is properly maintained and I also noticed the added facilities that are newly constructed.
How I wish the government will really put an emphases on the places like this since we all know tourism really helps the country’s economy. It will bring people thus help the economy in the place like a small town of Bagac. I hope the government agencies handling Medicare part D plan like Our Social Security System and Government insurance System will invest in business like this.

We will be visiting Leisure Coast Resort again in Pangasinan. We were here previously in one of our vacation moments. I remember when we just accidentally discovered the place last year we were attending a religious feast when typhoon Peping was hitting Pangasinan. Some of the municipalities in Pangasinan are already flooding. In fear that the place we were staying will also be in flood because it is near the seashore and surrounded by a river, we had to move away and transfer hotel and that’s when we found the Leisure Coast.
We were excited to see the place again because last year we don’t have the leisure of time to really see the place because we only stayed there for a couple of days. Hopefully new attractions can now be seen so that we will be able to feel as if we are having Disney vacations with its water park and nice rooms to stay.

It is really my dream to stay in one of the famous hotels in Tagaytay and what else could it be than Taal Vista Hotel. We always stay overnight in Tagaytay but not yet in Taal Vist. We would only stay there to dine and stay for a moment before checking in some affordable hotels in Tagaytay. That’s why it’s a dream come true for me when we finally got to stay in Taal Vista last weekend. It’s my wife’s gift for me for Father’s day. A dream I thought will only be come true if I claimed my disability insurance or lotto winnings.
Taal Vista Hotel is the most popular place to see every time you visit Tagaytay. Your visit in Tagaytay will not be a complete if you will not see this oldest and historic hote. It was named as one of the landmarks of Tagaytay City that is overlooking the Taal lake and volcano.
Every time we are in Tagaytay I always tell my wife that someday I will really stay in this hotel. It finally came true when my wife decided to check in last weekend with me and my son.

As Malacanang declared May 3 as national non-working holiday, we will be having long weekend this coming week. I am sure people are now busy searching for a getaway place and planning for an out of town trip.
Beautiful places to stay includes Tagaytay area and Rizal. These places are cool and away from too much heat in Metro Manila.
A cheap or affordable cool beautiful place especially family friendly, with modern bedroom furniture, wifi, pool or along the beach area is perfect during summer for the family.

If we get a chance to go out of town again, we will mostly make Bataan our next destination. To be specific, it may have to be Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar in Bo. Pag-asa, Bagac, Bataan. I just want to be reminded of how heritage houses look like as we all know and read in our history books. How cities and villages look like during Spanish era in the Philippines. This is what its website said: that you will be in a time machine where you can see “authentic 19th century Principalia Mansions and original Bahay na Bato (Stone Houses), stand resplendent around a cobblestone plaza and streets paying tribute to the magnificent craftsmanship of our forefathers.”
Aside from those historical buildings, it is promised that you can also see some artifacts from its El Museo and some historic designed houses that can accommodate groups of people for seminars and guest rooms for family use. There are lots of traditional and recreational activities to entertain yourself.
I am so excited to visit this place soon. I can’t stop myself from finding ways on how to get there. So for now I am saving for it that it even got in the way of my budget on 7-dfbx.

I was really amazed seeing that some of the beautiful places in Negros were featured in a tourist magazine. Among them are some of the old houses, Silay City and Nature Village in Talisay. I last visited Natures Village more than seven years ago when the place was just operating. That’s why I am so excited to see how it is now. I am so excited to see new beautiful places, new resorts and hotels with new modern furniture especially now with a new airport.
I am sure two weeks of vacation will not really be enough to see all the tourist spots, beautiful resorts, new bars and hang outs.
