Dabawenyang Laagan

Cape San Agustin is located at Governor Generoso. It is said to be the spot where the sun first appears in the whole Philippines. Isn't that amazing? It is an almost 6 hours trip from Davao City. It is quite a long ride but it is definitely worth it. Here are some of the photos taken in the place. SUNSET is 💓 Definitely not for people with fear of heights! Relaxiiiiiiiing.. Ahh. beautifuuul. Entrance fee: 50 pesos. 😙

Den Yho's Place is one of the places to be visited if you're in Davao Del Sur. It's owned by renowned artist Kublai Milan. Kublai Milan is known for his artworks which can be seen in People's Park. :) The place is located in a cool place in the mountains, overlooking Mount Apo. It's a perfect place for unwinding and staying away from the stress of the city. The place has a swimming pool, a restaurant and the Agong's House. To get to the resort, you need to walk uphill from the gate. Picture picture while walking up. /kapoy friend. Hahaha The view from the top. Wow no? :) The swimming pool. :) The viewdeck The playground :) Behind the "Land of Peace" and the Agong's House. The trees to the Agong House. We didn't go to the Agong House anymore because we got tired of all the climbing we did to get to the place and from the Camp Sabros walk we had earlier. 

Davao Crocodile Park is a zoo which can be found in a 10 hectare area located at Diversion Road, Ma-a. It's been in operation since 1995, and up to this date it still is alive and kicking. I actually wanted to visit the place last month but we didn't have time and money. Hahaha. So, I thought of having our little celebration this month here. But before proceeding, I did my research about the fees. We decided to meet at lunch time at my house which was just a few kilometers away. After lunch, we bought food from the near grocery store and off we went at around 1:45 PM. Since the place was just near and we were riding a motorcycle, we reached the place before 2:00 PM. We bought two tickets, each ticket costs Php 250.00. If you come by 3:00 PM, you'll be paying Php 300.00, so better come earlier. For Php 250.00, you get to visit three areas: Butterfly House, Crocodile Park and Tribu K'Mindawan. The first stop we went to was the Butterfly House, it's a few meters ...

We've seen plenty of photos about Bucas Grande or Sohoton Cove. We wanted to visit the place so bad. We even watched videos on Youtube about the place, read blogs and facebook posts to prepare for it financially. And finally, last Sunday, we did! Here's what happened. We we're a total of 24 pax in the tour. So, we had to book two vans. Each van costs 4,500 per day. Standard rate for the van is Php 3, 500 but because the destination is pretty far from Davao City, it's more expensive. We planned for a 2 day tour which costed both vans Php 8,000 plus crude oil (Budget for crude was Php 6,000 for both vans). We also brought food and water for two days, appliances like heater and butane stove. We brought our own water because we aren't sure of the quality of water in the island (better to be safe than sorry). Planned jump-off time from Davao City was 1:00 AM but we had to pass by different areas of the city to pick up the others before we finally took off. A...
