Where I get my French Cuisine!!!

Am sure all of you are drooling just with the mere mention of a french culinary delight. Lucky me I have a French grand aunt who cooks really well and while I was in CDEO, she gave me another incentive to visit there this coming Christmas. We had dinner at their place and got treated to a dinner, of course with red wine. The French just adore their wines. Spending quality time with family and with groasted crown of pork ribsood food is just on the top of my I LIKE list…

You can just see that Crown of Pork Ribs, baked in the oven with spices….Oh la la!

The New NAIA Terminal 3 for all Domestic Flights

rainydayplaneIt’s been quite a while since I got to go and see the airport. I haven’t been anywhere until last saturday, November 22 when I went to CDEOC. I was apprehensive since I didn’t know how to get to the airport because it was my first time with the new terminal. Got on a bus and stopped at Coastal and then rode a taxi to the airport since no public transportation passes thru there. I was amazed. It is an international airport. Nicer chairs, bigger lounges, a walkalator and super nice floors and a lot of food stalls for the travelers. Soon, I’m guessing that they will put up a shopping mall inside.Wow! But one thing that amazed me was to see this man, calmly sleeping on the chairs without a care in the world. Probably just tired.airport-scene

Hello Ceeeedeeeeeooohhhhhh!

Tomorrow is my first flight in over a year and I am going back to my roots. To the place where I was born and raised and where my memories are plentiful. I am going home to Cagayan de Oro City after more than 8 years of absence. I haven’t been home in a while and I am excited to see relatives and friends alike and spend some quality time with them because I don’t know when I will be back again to visit. It is also a business trip in the sense that I am organizing our 10th year reunion for my high school friends and I will have to finalize the venue and everything else in this trip so I am going to be busy but I also look forward to doing white water rafting with my cousins and friends. This is one sport that Cdeo offers that is unique to my hometown. I am raring to get my taste of it especially to a thrill seeker like me this represents an adventure of sorts. Although I am hesitant to leave Z behind I also know that she will be in the capable hands of my Mom. And I really need this vacation after all that happened the past year. This is my first break but still its going to be pleasure mixed with business. Hopefully I can allocate time for everybody.
