Last month, I have shared some exotic blog posts about our mouthwatering experience in Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2010 (DFAT) which was organized by Avatar Media, a new media outfit in Davao City.

We had a boat ride going to San Jose Wall, Samal where the Maxima Aquafun is located.

Going to Maxima Aquafun is a 20 to 30-minute boat ride from Pearl Farm dock Sasa, Davao City.

You wont get bored because of the fascinating scenery at far which blatantly shows that Davao is one of the beautiful paradises in the Philippines.

After a 30-minute boat ride, we finally reach the San Jose Wall where Maxima Aquafun is located.

We saw the longest tarpaulin slide ever in the country. I can’t wait to see myself sliding there!!

Kuya is preparing for the moor.

The place is filled with busy people enjoying the water. While our boat is preparing for the moor. We saw this man getting ready to jump to the sea from this High board.

High board jump to the sea. OMG exciting!

The water is very cool, clear and clean while we get closer. People are required to wear lifevest since the sea water level is 10 to 17 feet deep below reefs.

And this is the moment we have waited for. Sliding in the longest tarpaulin slide!! EEEEEKKKK!!

Yeah lol I am closing my nose since this is my 4th time sliding and the water always goes inside my nose.

This picture costs P60.

This is the longest slide I have ever tried. The slide is 50 meters long and 40-feet high from the sea! To have your picture taken, just go to their photo booth and pay P60.

During our 2nd day in Vaseline road trip, we visited the Malacañang of the North or the official residence of the Marcoses located in Paoay, Ilocos Norte. Let’s take a sneak peak at the real Malacanang of the North.

It is a two-storey house and it is one of the 29 rest houses of late President Ferdinand Marcos.

The house has 9 spacious rooms which used to accommodate upper class guests during Marcos’ term.

The house is a mixture of Spanish and Ilocano interior designs.

It also has 2 living rooms and 2 dining rooms. See how extravagant the house is; accommodating upper class visitors during those times.

Both 1st and 2nd floor have spacious veranda facing the Paoay Lake.

After Ferdinand Marcos died, Malacanang of the North was transformed into a musuem. It is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and has an entrance fee of P20.00.

This is a monthly photowalk of Marikina Digital Photographers Club, held yesterday, June 05, 2010.

It was my first time in Binondo, Manila and I didn’t know that this place is populated by Chinese. Since this is a photowalk, we walked from Recto LRT station to Binondo Church.

Vendors beside Quiapo church

Route: Recto, Quiapo Church, Sta. Cruz, Ongpin Street, Chinatown, Binondo Church.

A Chinese novelty store.

Happy bystanders

Happy construction workers

Happy horse

Behind her is the Binondo Church

Binondo girl we met inside the church

She was shy at first. I mistaken her for being a boy lol

She followed us outside

Crazy street children

A pinoy version of Avatar: The Last Airbender. I taught him to jump like that!

I want to go back there again around Sunday or 6am, since one of the members of MDPC said that there is mass feeding every morning here and priest’s morning parade.

This is my second attempt on children photography, you can view my first attempt on children photography here.

Location: Laiya Beach, San Juan, Batangas

We went here after camwhoring in the Pahiyas Festival 2010. Thank you Don for letting us stay in your resort .

This kid caught my attention. I walked towards her, she looks foreigner at far because of her brown hair and prominent eyes. But when I get closer, her nose explains it all.

I can’t believe I captured her like that. She’s really curious of what I am doing. I have 55-200mm lens, trying not to get near her because every time I try, she’s splashing me sand with water.

Such cute kids! Both staring at the kite! I love the water ripples, makes me want to go to that beach again

They are so innocent!

That’s all for now, hope you like them.
