Naitry ko na lyndon's worst ribs :( ang dumi naman ng place na yun. Mag lachi's ribs na lang maayos pa lugar at serbidora parehas lang ang presyo halos.


Para pasalubong (maiba naman kasi durian yema, pomelo,  durian at tuna lagi ang binibili ko) mga keso at tablea cocoa sa malagos yung binili ko.

sis bump and iamreese i suggest alisin niyo na sa itinerary ang eden, philippine eagle and go with this simple itinerary:

Day 1: Crocodile Farm - marami palang pwede gawin dito. may butterfly farm, zorb, bird show, cultural dance like fire/poi dance and may restaurants sila. check out their website.
(kami kasi adventure hanap namin, nagwhitewater rafting kami plus zipline plus entrance sa lahat ng attractions P2,000)

Day 2: boating
OPTION 1: you may opt to hire a private banca from Explore Davao for the whole day, 4,000-7,500 depending on desired destination. i tried vanishing island and talikud tour pero mas gusto ko talikud kasi mas maraming pwede puntahan. for our talikud tour, nadaanan namin ang kaputian island, babusanta, isla reta, pearl farm -- island hopping talaga kami.

pwede rin naman tipid.
OPTION 2: go to sta. ana wharf and ride the public boat going to talikud/ isla reta - I think it's P80 per person one-way.
pwede rin namang magwatertaxi kayo. google niyo na lang mga sis yung davao water taxi.

OPTION 3:
go to Costa Marina/ Chemas by the Sea/ Paradise Island/ Maxima etc - marami kayong options kasi maraming resort sa Samal.

At night, you can go to Jack's Ridge. for night life, yung pinakabagong dinadayo ng tao ay BrickLane. May ilang bars dun.

Sana ok naman ang weather next week.  :-\

naintriga ako sa water taxi na yan. ginoogle ko tuloy. magkano ang rate nyan kung sa pearl farm pupunta? hindi ba scary kasi parang maliit yung boat? e open sea pa naman lalo na kung sa side ng isla reta pupunta?

^sis para siyang speed boat...ang sabi sa amin rescue boat daw yun. Powerful ang engine sis ang bilis. Yes they do service to pearl farm pero dahil malayo mas mahal. Sa website nila you will get an idea of the rate. Accurate yun kasi lung magkano yung quote sa web ganun din nung naginquire ako sa phone. Mention mo na lang na ako ang nagrefer para alam nilang tinotoo ko sinabi ko na ikakalat ko sa net about them. Sad naman kasi walang ginagawa LGU to help them.

^^ sis ang alam ko pwede ihand carry ang pomelo kung 1 o 2 pcs lang naman. Yung tuna sashimi nga na binili sa airport nilagay lang ng friends ko sa bag. Tig isa lang nan sila.

advice naman po, anong mas okay na route kung gusto naming puntahan si Lolong sa Butuan (Agusan)?

from Manila mag land kami sa Davao, check-in muna hotel, city tour, then sa 2nd day 4 hours bus ride papuntang Butuan para makita ni hubby si Lolong, eto talaga ang greatest request nya sa akin eh, then sa afternoon balik na ng Davao, 3rd day another Davao tour

or from Manila land kami sa Butuan, daanan namin si Lolong bago mag bus ride papuntang Davao? ang problema dala namin mga bagahe nito, parang ang toxic naman ata, wala naman kaming plan mag overnight sa Butuan kase baka wala naman kaming masyadong mapasyalan dun, pang whole day lang talaga yung trip sa Butuan, then from Davao ng flight papuntang Manila

thanks sa mga sasagot  ;)

^^ sis me din pre-booking na, mag-pay na lang kami. glad they are extending the discounted rate kahit December pa stay namin ;)

girls, di ba may nabibiling pomelo na naka-box na sya? pwede na ba yung derechong i-check in? katulad kasi sa Puerto Princesa, kahit yung mga seafoods bilhin mo sa palengke, alam ng mga tindera kung pano mag-pack para good for check in baggage. ganun din ba sa Davao palengke? kasi 20kgs each kami ni hubby ng bagahe, plan ko talaga mag-uwi ng mga pomelos and seafoods :)

^ i think may nabasa rin ako sa mga blogs na pwede na i-check in agad yun. 

mga sis, may idea ba kayo kung what time nagsasara ang lola abon's, magsaysay fruit stand and aldevinco and kung gano siya kalayo from PF Marina? hindi ko kasi alam kung what time ang kukunin naming ferry ride from PF (torn between 1:30PM and 4PM).

thank you!  :)

Help! I have never been to Davao and I have no idea where to take my parents and 2 nieces aournd the city. My brother kasi is the one who's supposed to take them there, kaya lang biglang di sya pwede so kami ng husband ko ang magaaccompany sa parents at pamangkins ko.

Please help me, ano ba ang magandang gawin at magandang puntahan sa city lang, since my dad had a stroke so di sya pwedeng masyadong mapagod, at ako din na 30 weeks na pregnant by then. Ang highlight lang would be the philippine eagle and the crocodile farm para sa dad at pamangkins ko. at para samin ni hubby ang masarap na kainan.

Patulong naman po ng IT eto details:

4 adults and 2 10yr old girls

Aug.29-31
Arrival: Aug 29 around 3pm
Davao Airp Departure: kami ni huubby 1030 am while ang parents ko with the kids is around 130pm. (eto pa magkakahiwalay kami ng flight since di nga sabay binook) ano kayang magandang gawin ng paents ko habang naghihintay ng flight nila at kami eh nauna na?

your suggestions would really be appreciated sissies. TIA!  :-[

Ps: i don't know about the accommodation just yet since brother ko ang magbubook. I'm sorry i'm hopeless :(

^^ sis considering na your pregnant and kakagaling lang ng dad mo, limited ang mapupuntahan niyo. i suggest these places:
eden - peaceful, relaxing, parang tagaytay, flowers and trees. may zipline din.
crocodile farm - mini zoo, butterfly farm, zorb, restaurants
chemas by the sea - may pool and beach dito and its only 20 minutes away from the city (depende where you're staying)
Jacks ridge for dinner
Restaurants on Torres st.
Aldevinco
pearl farm

yung philippine eagle medyo mahabang byahe and baka mapagod kayo. medyo disappointing din kasi not much to see.

para stress free book ka na rin siguro ng van? kasi hirap magtaxi dun. 4 lang ang maximum capacity. if ever, you need to take 2 taxis everytime.

girls, sa tingin nyo doable ba yung intro dive sa Samal (near Maxima para makapunta na rin) then Hagimit Falls from 8AM to 3PM just before we head to Pearl Farm na last trip eh 4PM? plan sana ganitong itinerary instead of going to PF then exit thru back door. TIA :)
