Praline Back in the year 1988, when I was once a spirited and timid youthful girl of five, my father who was then a reputable Marine Engineer took me to my foremost beach jaunt along with my other siblings. Boy, did I have such a blast! Despite my obvious lack of skill in swimming, I embraced the cold salty waters of the beach while forcefully flexing my arms and legs trying my best to swim as far away as I could from the safety of the shores.

2 Comments » August 7th, 2010 Praline During our family trip last June, Val and busied ourselves in looking for a suitable Leyte Resort where we can celebrate my son Vaughn’s birthday, since it was June 22 after all. It was Vaughn’s 2nd year in this ever captivating, vigorous yet unpredictable life. We found ourselves searching online for perhaps an affordable yet worthwhile resort in Ormoc City. However, we were at a loss since most resorts were a little too pricey for our budget.
I was very interested in looking for a resort consisting of pools that was safe enough for kids to swim into, considering that Val’s brother has four kids, and we sure want all of them to have a wonderful time swimming. Luckily Val’s sister–in-law, Ate Lisa, was able to reserve a private home with a large pool. The place was called the Hikari Pool.

I did not receive any work load today so I figured I will make use of my free time writing about our visit to Sabin Resort Hotel situated in Ormoc City’s southern coastal shores. This does not happen too often, having some agreeable space to let my mind drift back and forth just to come up with great ideas, on how to make my post well-written or at least attract enough people to actually read the whole post. Unlike other bloggers, more often than not, I do not write a satisfactory article in just a short span of time. Let’s just say that I have tons of stuff I need to do before I can find time to create posts for our websites.

July 13th, 2010 Praline Carmelite Spirituality Center
Our second stopover was the Carmelite Spirituality Center situated high above the mountains of Barangay Milagros, Ormoc. The walk towards the center was tedious which only made me realize how much I lacked exercise.
The Carmelite Spirituality Center was of course captivating and somber. To witness the stunning statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Jesus, we had to climb further up small but rather lengthy steps. I could not help but feel that the further we ascended up those hallowed steps, the more you feel spiritually vulnerable and reflective.
After reaching the top, I have never felt happier since finally we were able to reach our short and momentary destination and of course, I got to see the statue closely. I felt an assortment of feelings then, I prayed again thinking that I had to, it was inevitable. I guess this is somehow what anyone would most likely do whenever you feel God is in close proximity.

July 13th, 2010 Praline The Our Lady of Guadalupe Monastery, Carmelite Spirituality Center, and Claretian Mission Center were just among the tourist destinations we visited during our six day stay in Ormoc City. The trip was comfortable despite the scorching temperature solely caused by the sun’s persistence.
Our first stop was the breathtaking Our Lady of Guadalupe Monastery situated in the hills of the Barrio Cabaon-an. Its location was quite perfect when your own soul is searching for refuge. If there was indeed a perfect haven to surrender yourself to the goodness and purity of God’s will then this was indeed the ideal place to contemplate.
The outskirts were mostly covered with pine trees and other trees I have yet to identify that contributed to the monastery’s green paradise. The entire place was echoing with spiritual solemnity that for the most part I felt that some divine being was watching over its visitors.

June 25th, 2010 Praline Just yesterday, we’ve traveled northeast of Ormoc City and stumbled on the famous Lake Danao National Park after a 20 minute ride from the city. The weather itself was on our side despite its sizzling heat, we were quite excited to arrive at our destination.
The Lake Danao National Park is a 2,193 hectare area and is about 15 kilometers travel from the Tongonan national road.
The trip towards the park was all right; however, I strongly suggest for you to bring along some food or snacks and drinks particularly water just to quench your thirst since the sun’s heat wasn’t really welcoming.
The well celebrated Lake Danao is the main attraction of the National Park which covers 148 hectares in the island Leyte, Philippines.
