thanks sis.

ang gaganda pa ng mga bus galing dipolog mukhang di nakakatakot magtravel pero syempre for safety dapat umaga ang travel para site seeing na rin.

in fairness magaganda nga bus dun. even yung cdo-iligan na same bus company din. kaso nga lang dahil dun sa bad experience ko na muntik na ko maholdap eh nagkatrauma talaga ako sa mindanao areas. hehe, lalo na kung magbubus at mag-isa ako.

sis nag-alavar kayo? saka natry nyo din lechon dun? sarap din lechon at curacha dun eh

shegothim · « **Reply #102 on:** September 28, 2011, 10:49:48 pm »

may lechon din pala doon? nice

di kami nakapag-alavar kasi sabi di naman daw ok doon pero gusto rin sana naming itry. siguro next time kakain na kami doon. natry namin iyong curacha, eto iyong crabs na balbon atsaka matigas ang shell diba? ang sarap ng meat nya manamis-namis. inoffer sa amin ito nung nasa sta. cruz island kami. pinaluto ni sis angelice sa local doon. swerte nga kasi may huli iyong mangingisda. wala kasi kaming baong kanin at ulam at puro chichirya lang ang food na dala namin.

actually, yung sa alavar, ang gusto ko lang ay yung alavar sauce na nakabottle. nung dun kami kumain. super kaduper tagal ng order namin. pero masarap naman. syempre pa, crabs kasi kaya talo-talo na!

yes sis yun yung curacha. yung dati kong boss ginagawa nyang parang chili crabs yung luto nyan, the best!

yung mi goreng at kari noodles naman fave ko sa barter. at dun din ang super mura na mga pashmina. like P80 each lang kuha ko dati. sa davao P100 minimum

hehe.. singit lang po..

sis shegothim hindi daw curacha yung nakain natin.. sabi ni manong na nabilhan natin, kamaganak (di ko alam kung sa father or mother side

) daw yun ng coconut crab.. pero iba pa daw yung curacha.. nung ginoogle ko nga mejo iba yung itsura.. pero iba din yung itsura nung crab natin no?

Hi sisses!

I need your help. We are supposed to go to Dakak and Dapitan pero nagkamali kami ng booking sa Cebu Pacific. Instead of Manila-Dipolog, we booked Manila-Zamboanga. Hindi kasi namin alam during that time na iba pala yung Zamboanga City. We only realized it today, when we are making our IT. Our travel is two weeks from now, Jan 20-22. Medyo panic mode na ako, 3 girls kasi kami at yung 10 y/o son ko. Akala ko kasi chillax mode lang kami, kasi nga intended for Dakak talaga yung travel namin.

Sis, baka pwdeng pashare nung IT nyo, pati na rin mga contract persons. Preferred kasi ng anak ko yung mga bodies of water, like beach, falls, etc.

TIA!

riandrew · « **Reply #111 on:** March 06, 2012, 09:56:27 am »

shegothim · « **Reply #112 on:** March 06, 2012, 10:13:47 am »

pwede naman sis kasi konti lang nagpupuntang tourist ngayon sa zamboanga. punta ka rin sa tourism office nila. meron sa may lantaka hotel at meron din sa may palengke sa pueblo. mababait ang staff at officers dun. binigyan pa kami ng chabacano dictionary.

riandrew · « **Reply #113 on:** March 06, 2012, 10:20:12 am »

^ gusto ko din yang chabacano dictionary para kahit paano matuto ako makipag-usap sa locals

riandrew · « **Reply #114 on:** March 12, 2012, 12:20:29 pm »

just came back from our great southern eskapo. at ano ba yan, nawala sa isip ko humingi ng chavacano dictionary! fluent kasi yung kasama ko..

grabe nosebleed ako sa zambo-basilan-tawitawi. para akong nasa china. wala akong maintindihan! haha

matetreyes · « **Reply #115 on:** March 12, 2012, 09:18:42 pm »

how was your trip sis? san ka nakarating?

riandrew · « **Reply #116 on:** March 13, 2012, 02:24:15 pm »

everything went well. thank God for this blessed trip. effortless din kasi yung kasama ko, he can speak fluent chavacano, ilonggo, and cebuano. (so yes, super clueless sa mga usapan. toinks!)

- pagdating ng zmb, labas lang ng airport, at amazing- may jeep agad papuntang pueblo.

- a family adopted us, we stayed in a village across southcom.

- dun ako nakakain ng muslim food

- dun din ako natuto magshake hands, the muslim way

- nag sta.cruz island kami, and yep there are red broken corals kaya mukhang pink ang sand. maganda inferness. we also checked out the cemetery. ang galing kasi malalaman mo yung Samal, Tausug, Yakan, o Badjao yung namatay based sa tomb.

- ok ang Fort Pilar, Plaza Pershing, at Paseo del Mar sa gabi. grabe handsdown ako sa mga batang badjao. we all know magaling sila sumisid, pero night time tapos wala pang goggles - oh my - amazing ang talent nila to still dive kahit madilim (kapalit ng barya)

- ang knicker bucker pala ay fruit salad + pakwan + mangga + ice cream.

- napakamahal ng curacha kasi deep sea crab to, rare mahuli. so for experience, gora na. magkalasa lang ng alimango. nawalan din ako ng gana dahil ibig sabihin pala ng curacha ay ipis. eekk. hehe

- winner ang barter (canelar), imported ang mga pasalubong ko sa ofis at family ko.

- we went all the way to Taluksangay to see the mosque. dun kami nakakilala ng isang hadji.

- opcors, how can i miss the cathedral. ang ganda! one of the best churches ive seen. inexxag ang size ng cross to emphasize that zmb is christian dominated.

.. and a lot more lesson learned in this trip.

riandrew · « **Reply #117 on:** March 13, 2012, 02:33:55 pm »

actually, zmb is just a side trip for our basilan and tawi tawi eskapo. pashare nalang ng picture tutal very few will care to go there. hehe

- white beach in basilan is gorgeous. very fine ang sand. pasok sya sa top 4 beaches that ive been to.

- tawi tawi, hay im very overwhelmed to reach philippine's southermost province. may kaba- oo naman. sobrang nag-ingat kami sa kilos namin. they speak SAMAL (or basta isang muslim dialect), pero may ibang nakaka-intindi din ng Tagalog. andami kong precious lessons learned in Tawi.
