hayssst. sa first week na davao namin, wala pa rin kaming masamahang group for water rafting. kinontact ko yung sa water tubbing, hindi naman nagreply na.  :(

why not try intro diving instead? :) or island hopping?

^ naughtybrat, i think last trip ng boat going back to the city is late afternoon, around 4 or 5pm.  You might want to try restaurants or cafes within the city.

Lachi's (in Marfori, nasa downtown area lang)
Tiny Kitchen (known for their paella, in Torres St.)
Yellow Fin Tuna (in Ecoland or Lanang, if you're into seafood/tuna dishes)
Ah Fat (in Victoria Plaza compound, chinese and seafood)
Claude's (Authentic French cuisine, very cozy ambiance, a bit pricey)
Swiss Deli (European cuisine, very good food, you can try ostrich meat and you can buy cheeses, wine and sausages)
Kusina Selera (they have great modern Filipino food, can hang out and drink beer outside after meal)

sharing my basic itinerary for our davao trip next month

Day 1 : from airport, tour na agad: Eden Park, Phil. Eagle center, Lola Abon, Crocodile Park, Jack's Ridge, then late check in sa hotel.

Day 2: Samal Island (either Paradise Island or Blue water resort) up to lunch time lang, then balik sa city, tapos sa People's Park and Aldevinco Shopping center

Day 3: City tour naman before heading to airport for our 7pm flight back to manila

^ sis, I think postpone mo na muna pagpunta sa PF. Hindi sulit ang day tour lalo na maraming under construction... Malamang hindi nyo ma-enjoy tour nyo, Hanap na lang ng ibang mappuntahan. Sayang naman ang bayad.  ;)

Aw ganun ba.. Sabagay tama ka sis, sayang ang bayad kung puro constructions lang makikita.. :( ang sad naman.. :(

Thanks sis!

sa DWA kami tumuloy. sila una nag-confirm nung early in the morning though sila talaga first choice ko hehe. they required us to deposit 1K na that same morning buti na lang malapit kami dun sa isang office nila.  if ever na di natuloy nuon, nag-set na lang kami to island hop and intro dive that day. pero since natuloy naman with rafting, the following day naman natuloy yung intro dive namin sa Maxima. after mag back door exit sa Pearl Farm ;)

will prepare pala travel kwento later girls. mejo busy pa lang sa ngayon :)
