My whole team of 18 and I decided to spend our Saturday together for a team bonding activity. We wanted to do something else other than the usual lunch and movie. That's when we decided to go fishing. What?!?! Yes, you read that right. Fishing! Cebu is unique in that aspect. You can be as busy as a worker bee in the morning surrounded with all the noise in the city but can also be calm and relax like maybe go fishing in the afternoon of the same day. Liloan is only a 30-min drive away from Cebu City without heavy traffic.

I had thought of buying my grandparents, tita/tito and their families, and neighbors with holiday hams for Christmas. The only bump to that idea was the fact that hams need to be kept cold during transport. Given the Cebu weather, that would prove very difficult to do. While I was looking around at a bazaar at IT Park last Christmas, I came across this wonderful invention that claimed to be safe and, in fact, have been widely used by countries such as Australia and New Zealand.

...as promised. Enjoy the pictures! :)

Finally! I get to blog about my recent travel. It was not just any trip. It was a trip with the whole Alvarado-Alumbro clan. And yes, we are a HUGE family. Imagine how difficult the planning that was!?! It was the first time the whole family went out for a vacation... and abroad at that!

I am writing on Christmas eve. Yes, the air smells different. The air smells... happy!
