2012 is my "Travel Year"

This is a collection of all tagged photos in Facebook that I chose to represent my 2012 travels. Not in chronological order. We went to several local destinations this year (actually, I'm having 2 more local trips this month. One in Anilao, Batangas for my MS 1 Field Trip and a Davao trip with my kumare Emma), and an international trip to Singapore. By New Year's day next year, we will be staying at Hong Kong for our baby's first international travel. He actually got his passport when he was 6 months, and we didn't have the chance to bring him abroad until now that he's 2 years old. 

This is the beachfront of Astoria Bohol. I love their service, meals, and of course the free wifi :D On our last night, we had a flying lantern experience. 

Photo taken by my sister-in-law in our trip to Bohol last June 7-10. My parents-in-law have a membership with  Club Astoria and we took the 4-day vacation at Astoria Bohol, one of the latest hotels there. Behind me and my husband is the Chocolate Hills view from Sagbayan Peak.

Ilocos Day 2 at Pagudpud beach :) My son Jethro is scared of the sea water and tells me that the sand is "dirty". It's his first time to the sea and I hope he enjoys the beach on our next trip.


This photo was taken in an old church in Ilocos. The sun is still hot at around 4 pm when we just got into Ilocos Norte enduring a 9-hour trip courtesy of Travellers Journey Travel and Tours. Our trip in Ilocos was from April 2-4.




This was taken somewhere in Corregidor in front of Mc Arthur's statue. We had this tour last March 31, as soon as my aunt from Canada came to visit. Day tour courtesy of Sun Cruises Philippines. I learned additional info about the Japanese occupation here.


We headed to the 17th Philippine Hot Air Balloon Festival in Clark, Pampanga last February 9-12 and stayed at Hotel Stotsenberg. 
Hotel Stotsenberg's lobby. Photo taken by my sister-in-law's phone. They had a nice buffet and the rooms are great. I also played in the casino there :D

 




This is one of our rare group pictures in Singapore last May 26-29. We had this photo taken at Universal Studios (Mummy attraction).


Me and my husband's younger brothers :) as you can see, they are taller than us. Laya and Lakan are both university students too. 


Merlion Park group shot taken by Ate Lulu. She's so diligent in capturing moments in her Sony Cam. 


This shot was taken on our trip to Balay Indang in Cavite. In this photo is my husband's eldest sister's family (2 children and hubby), youngest brother Lakan and our family. We stayed overnight and ate lots of organic food :) very refreshing trip. 


Last April 8-9 was our trip to Boracay and we experienced Zorb. It's my first time to do it, so is my husband. I bought this deal at Groupon for a cheap price.


The Groupon deal includes Helmet diving and ATV (but we rode a Buggy instead because there are too many people using it at that time).


Our trip was sponsored by my Aunt Ofelia as her 2nd year wedding anniversary gift for us. It was a great but short experience. I wish we could go back very soon!
