A Quick Trip To Dipolog City and Dapitan City! A Trip to Remember!

It was late last weekend Friday that I decided to visit my sister in Dipolog City. She's been inviting me to visit her and that she'd tour me around the city. I wasn't that excited, but thought, I'd give it a try. Turned out, we've had a great time! 

I have to have a courtesy call! haha This place was just in the books when I was in highschool and college. And now, I'm in Dapitan! Our National hero's place of exile. 



Like other tourists, we went checking out souvenir items. What could better be a souvenir than a shirt which you can wear wherever! I got a DAKAK shirt!



They have more items like bags, wallets, purses, household and decoration handicraft items! 
We wanted to thank Ate Diding and asked if we could have a picture with her. :-)


My sister wants to capture the beauty of the beach and the mountain. Here she is, posing like a model. :-)
We initially just wanted to check out the nearby beach, but eventually decided to check out Dakak. The famous Park and Beach Resort in Dapitan City. Thank God it's still within our budget (is it?). Lol!

Entrance fee is P1,000.00 inclusive of all amenities. P1,000.00 is consumable either in jetski, banana boat or food at their restaurant.


The best part of Dakak is still its beach! Amazing cool beach with the hot King Sun shining! Summer is really on! I had a great time cherishing and how lavishing Dakak's beach is. 


The experience won't be complete without us checking out their restaurant! Il Patio Restaurant is where you can also redeem/consume your coupon.
The best finally for a great meal is, of course, a great wine! Life's too short to drink bad wine. :-)
We took pictures at their Al Fresco Restaurant too! We feel like we were celebrities, invited to visit the place! Haha
And as we checked out the beach we took some more pictures. Being amazed with the view consumed our time. We can't help but take pictures, literally, anywhere!










Sun bathing is always an option! What say you? LOL!

We had a great pizza and pasta meal! Thumbs up on the taste! 




This was the view of Dakak beach at around 5:00 P.M. The sun is still up and shining!



We didn't notice, our time was up. We need to go back to Dipolog City. We realized it's already half past 6:00 P.M.

On our way home, we can't help but notice Dapitan's state-of-the-art City Hall.
It was an amazing Dakak experience! I am thankful we did choose to pay the entrance and experience it's grandeur! I am thankful that we did decide to check it out.

The following day, we had a tour at the shore line where the ship/vessel/barge of my sister's company was docked. I can't help but capture this scene of kids happily enjoying the waters under the heat of the sun. I can't stop myself reminiscing my good old childhood days!



I want to drive! I want to take over the bridge! haha Fuera Visita! LOL!

VIP rooms were also shown to us. And yeah, again she can't help but ask me to take a picture. :-)
I checked out the top of the ship, was fascinated at how clear and blue the skies are. Real summer scenery. 
Inside the vessel was a picture-taking spree! haha Unlimited shots! Keep clicking was the motto!



Another pose at the VIP room. 
A picture taken at the tourist area. 
This is the Lady of Good Voyage Vessel! Thank you for the accommodation! :-) We had fun!


Join me as I explore more places soon! :-) My Dipolog City and Dapitan City experience was a blast! And I would love to come back anytime soon. And check out more. I was not able to take some photos during our Boulevard exploration. We went there at night, and it's like MOA's seaside area. It's a great place to hang out, drink some beer, talk to friends or sing some songs! Daghang salamat Dipolog! :-)

31 Major Causes of Failure

According to Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" there are thirty-one major reasons or failure. As you go over the list, check yourself by it, point by point, for the purpose of discovering how many of these causes-of-failure stand between you and success. Unfavorable hereditary background. There is but little, if anything, which can be done for people who are born with a deficiency in brain power. This philosophy offers but one method of bridging this weakness - through the aid of the Master Mind. Observe with profit, however, that this is the only one of the thirty-one causes of failure which may not be easily corrected by any individual. Lack of a well-defined purpose in life. There is no hope of success for the person who does not have a central purpose, or a definite goal at which to aim. Ninety-eight out of every hundred of those whom I have analyzed had no such aim. Perhaps this was the major cause of their failure.  Lack of ambition to aim above medio...

13 People[Organizations] Who Chose to Circulate Trust

Image
In this world who experienced a lot of distrust, with people who in one way or another been a victim of betrayal, of fraud, of scam, of misbehavior, trust has become scarce, and it seems that it has become a "hard currency", it's rare to find. Even some of the people you call "friends" don't trust you that much, even your family members, your mom, your dad, your daughter, your son, your siblings. It seems that trust has joined "honesty" on being labeled by the song "such a lonely word". Trust, has been the currency that every people wants to keep and don't want to spend. And the world has suffered the problems caused by the non-ciculation of "trust" currency.  For some people, they'd give you some trust but would ask you to pay for more. For some people they just choose to keep trust to themselves, and live their long-boring-lives with distrust. For some people, they trust blindly, thinking they have already been t...

Secrets of the Successful: I.M.A.G.E. - "M" is for what?

Image
I have recently shared to you that the secret of the successful is I.M.A.G.E. And by now, if you have been following my blog, you know what "I" means, Innovation . If you haven't read it, click here . Now, I am going to reveal to you what the next letter means, "M" is for Mastery. Committing yourself to mastery at what you do, mastery at your craft - whether your craft is selling staplers or educating children - is the only standard to operate under in these change-rich times. Anything less and you'll be left behind. The comedian Steve Martin said it really well when he advised, 'Be so good that people cannot ignore you.' Look, if people you work with and the people you serve only like you, you'll probably not last that long in this age of intense competition. You want people to love you. To adore you. To worship the very ground you stand on because you are so staggeringly good at what you do. And the only standard that will get you...
