With so much criticisms heralded against the zoo, I would like to focus my blog on what the zoo has to offer rather than its flaws. Initially, I wanted to visit the Avalon Zoo in Tanay, Rizal but ended up going to Manila Zoo. I am worried that my son might not endure the long distance travel and the enormous size of the zoo (Avalon) for it would require a lot of walking to see the vast collection of animal on display.

Al Dar Islands
But before Summer reigns over us, we sneaked our way to Al Dar Islands for a fun and leisure getaway experience. The overcast sky the day of our trip makes it more perfect as the remnants of overnight sandstorm filters the strong sunrays and made our trip just fine and bearable.
Early that day, we headed off to Al Dar Islands Beach Resort office located at Sitra Fishing Port. You can buy your tickets there or in our case we bought it ahead of time for reservation purposes. It is always better to call and make sure if they are open for business due to weather conditions or if they have private functions.Once you have your ticket, wait for the van that conveys passengers to the Coast Guard's office. You need to register yourself on the day of your visit. Don't forget to bring your valid IDs (CPR, Passport copy or Driver's license).
On boarding the sea taxi, present your tickets to the boat captain. You will be provided with a lifejacket and will be required to wear it. Children from the age of 2 are also required to follow this safety rule. Enjoy the boat ride!

Exhibition Road
They come and go. Some drives away from this road like they don’t care but others choose to stay for some funfare. Those who decides to stay came from afar. While some went over board for some R&R.
Lined with different business establishments, this road is in a buzz when darkness is in disguise. For the tired and weary and something in between, if they are lucky they may find their queen. Behind these painted walls you will find men wrapped in guilt with women dressed to bent while lovers search for a place to rent.
But don’t despair, for when they all had fallen asleep, the sun still shines when its time for you… to take a peek :)

What's Going On?
As we drove to work yesterday, it occurred to me how blessed I was to be just where I am.
I had said goodbye several months ago to a friend of more than four years, who thanks to the recession has lost her job at the worst possible time.
With much prayers , it is my dearest hope that I hear from her in the very near future that she has made a new start and that good has come out of bad.
To have gone my entire life without a day out of work is a blessing. I’ve been doing my best and striving hard to earn a buck since I left the comforts of my beloved
It concerned me to hear from friends that they’ve been given a termination letter or their paycheck were a certain percentile less than usual just so that their companies can cope up with the circumstances. But despite this, I would like to consider ourselves fortunate as compared to people on the breadline- many of whom have lost their homes along with their livelihoods.
However dim it may seems, this may not be the right time to start heaving those accusing fingers to those who started all these follies that triggered the
Avaha and shalom.
