Summer In October with the College Friends




Calatagan, Batangas
Oct. 2016



Beach Day with TSG Friends!


It was Summer in October. 



Together with my TSG Friends, we went on a Calatagan Trip once again but on a different resort and place this time. 

Our target place was the Villa Vicencia Resort. 

We were five in the group. 

Our call time was 4 am at Jollibee Pasay Rotonda. From there, we rode a van going to Calatagan.

Fare as of this writing is 200 pesos.

After three hours, we reached Calatagan.

We bought first some food for lunch and meryenda at their market. We planned to have a buddle fight so we bought banana leaves, rice, salted eggs, tomatoes and canned goods.

After that, we rode a tricycle going to the resort.

Fare for the tricycle was 200 pesos one way good for three pax.

As we reached the resort, we paid for the entrance fee that cost us 120 per head. Our initial plan was to pitch a tent but one of our friends suggested that we should rent a room which cost 1000 for day tour. 

Here is the Facebook link of the resort’s page: www.facebook.com/villavicencia

We then went for a swim and of course photo ops! The sea was a bit rocky so I suggest that when you swim, you must wear slippers or sandals.







Here came the boodle fight for lunch!






Just before we leave for the 4 pm schedule back in Manila, we dare ourselves to dance by the 
seashore.
We practiced inside our room and danced under the sun. Hello there, shameless selves!



 
Sorry for our craziness and not so good performance especially the girl in white. Shameless posting. Hays.

But when you are with your crazy friends, you do crazy things and yet you're happy! So no regrets. Ha-ha!

It was a happy day tour indeed for it was a mission accomplished!

Until next time, Calatagan!
