During our recent trip to Hongkong, we stayed at Butterfly on Morrison for 4D3N. We chose the place because it is relatively affordable, with okay reviews on Hotels.com and Tripadvisor. Overall, it was okay. It was not a bad experience at all. However, if and when I do go back to Hongkong, I will stay [...]

Manila Oceanpark
Posted by carambs on March 9th, 2008
I spent the afternoon at Manila Oceanpark to celebrate a friend’s birthday. It was a very interesting experience, except for the fact that there were a million people there. We got stuck in traffic at Quiapo because of a rally we didn’t know about so we arrived there past 2PM. Which was a blessing for [...]

Posted by carambs on December 16th, 2007
I gave my hubby a Flip Video (Ultra Series) for Christmas. I found it on Amazon.com during Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. This is the day when almost all retailers in the US go on sale. It was featured in the Electronics category, and I got interested because of the good reviews. I love [...]

To the adventure and outdoor trippers out there, [...]
Vigan Heritage Mansion
Posted by carambs on November 25th, 2007
Vigan Heritage Mansion During our last roadtrip with Vigan as our destination, I wanted to be sure that our chosen hotel wasn’t “spooky”. You see, I’m a scaredy cat. And most of Vigan’s hotels are actually preserved old houses. I researched online, and came across several hotels. We ended up choosing Vigan Heritage Mansion because [...]
Tripper 5: Photos of the Philippines
Posted by carambs on November 22nd, 2007
Well, I’m choosing from among my photos, so these may not necessarily be the best of the best out there. But they’re pretty good photos of the Philippines. I’ve been posting them to different Flickr groups so other people may see how beautiful our country is. 1) Bohol – This photo was taken during our [...]
