Mommy's Birthday in Quezon City and Baguio Vacation with Ate Mia and Manong

September 7, 2013 Saturday
 
At 1200AM, I went to Mactan airport for my flight to Manila at 3:10AM. When I arrived at the airport the gate was still closed so I have to wait. While waiting I looked at the arriving passengers, play with my cellphone, and walked around in circles to kill my time.

When the gate was opened I went to checked-in myself, pay the terminal fee, and eat sandwich from Dunkin Donut. I waited still for my boarding announcement and observed other passengers. I sometimes felt nervous before flight but somehow this flight was different. After a while boarding was announced and we flew.

The flight was good. No bad shaking of plane and we landed smoothly. I arrived 4:00AM so it was still dark and I call myself a yellow taxi. I arrived at the apartment 40 minutes later so people are still sleeping. Mommy, Mama Digna, and Nanay woke-up. Diday was still sleeping. After I changed my clothes I went to sleep.

Since it was Saturday I slept until 10AM. Mommy and I went to shops to buy ingredients for her cake. I played with Diday the whole day but I also slept in the afternoon since I still felt tired.

Mommy celebrated her birthday with her relatives at the apartment. Diday's cousins were there and the occasion ended okay. The party ended late in the afternoon so we didn't have time to attend mass and so we spent the rest of the afternoon sleeping.

Mommy and I sent Diday to school then Mommy went to her office. I waited at her office up to 9:30AM then went to Diday school again to fetch her at 10:15AM. Diday and I arrived at the apartment 15 minutes later. In the afternoon Mommy celebrated her birthday with officemates. Diday and I went to her office and brought with us cakes. The celebration was fun and we went home after.

Mommy is on vacation leave for the rest of the week so we went to go shopping at Isetan and got money
from Palawan Money Padala. Of course, we sent Diday to school first. We spend the whole day going to shops and fetch Diday from school after.

We went to Victory Liner Terminal to buy tickets for Baguio. P750 for the 1st class ticket so more than 2k for three persons since Diday is already treated as full. I texted Manong our scheduled bus trip which is 11:10PM and will arrived in Baguio approximately 4:00AM. Manong confirmed that he will fetch us from the terminal in Baguio.

So, at 11:10PM rode from Quezon City to Baguio. We had several baggage but we manage to brought them safely to Baguio. Diday fell asleep during the trip and Mommy too. I was not able to sleep though since I can't really sleep during travel. We arrived past 4:00AM then Manong went to fetch us at the terminal and went to his home. Ate Mia and the kids were still sleeping so we just make ourselves at home and sleep as well.

We woke at 10AM and Ate Mia cooked us food. We talked for a while about life in Baguio and problems of family. The whole day we spent at the house since it was raining and shops were far from our place. So, what we did is watch T.V most of the time and play with Diday since Alina and Allen were in school. The temperature is cold but not freezing although the water is so cold we can't take a bath without hot water.

Since Manong is on leave we went to SM Baguio in the afternoon. We bought some dry goods and have picture taken at the second floor lobby. Then we ate at Shakey's treat by Ate Mia and Manong. Then we went home late in the afternoon. In the morning Manong, Mommy, Diday, and me went to the wet market for pasalubong. we bought strawberry half kilo for P200. We also bought some other goodies as well.

September 14, 2013 Saturday

It was recognition day so we went to PMA together with Mommy, Diday, Manong, and me. Ate Mia and the kids didn't went with us. We tour around PMA with Manong as our official photographer. Diday was enjoying and we took pictures with cadet at the Mess Hall. We were not able to see the recognition rites though since we were already late and it finished early. We took pictures at the Sundial, Melchor Hall, Mess Hall, Airplane museum, TreeHouse, etc. Our tour finished in 30 minutes and we went home since it was already starting to rain.

At home, we started to pack our bags for out bus trip in the evening at 11:10PM and still Victory Liner. We had a great dinner took pictures with the kids and we gave P1k for Alina and Allen for early Christmas gift. We were not able to give gifts to the kids for a long time. At 10:30PM we went to the bus terminal and Manong waited for us until we get on the bus and I texted Ate Mia and Manong thanking them for allowing us to stay in their home.

It was a very long ride back to Quezon City. Mommy and Diday went to sleep but I was not. I'm always nervous when I see the ridge of the mountain and sometimes the bus went near it. I tried to go to sleep when we were already in the low land but I can't.

September 15, 2013 Sunday

We arrived in Quezon City at 4:00AM and we took a taxi to our apartment. We were tired and so we went to sleep when we arrived.
