SM Mall of Asia's 5th Philippine International PyroMusical Competition 2014 - Spain vs UK

If you're thinking of doing something over the weekend, why don't you try watching the 5th Philippine International Pyromusical Competition in SM Mall of Asia (MOA) every Saturday until March 22.  The Pyromusical competition already started last Feb 15, 2014 with an opening exhibition by the Philippines courtesy of Platinum Fireworks. I missed the opening but lucky I got the opportunity to see last week's fireworks by Spain and UK.

Part2: Trip to Siquijor Day 2 - Things to do in Siquijor | Places to See

Siquijor island is an island in the province of central Visayas region.  It is called Isla del Fuego by the Spaniards (aka Island of Fire) because back then, thousands of glowing fireflies would cluster on molave trees at night.  It is also called the Mystic Island because of the famous healing traditions and myths on supernatural and sorcery that makes it mysterious.

Last year, I felt like I wanted to visit Siquijor so bad I asked my friends to join me in a trip. It's been a long while since I had a trip to Visayas, and Neil, Matt, Angel, joined me without thinking twice. :)

Part5: Singapore Trip Day 3 - Exploring Bugis and Chinatown

On our third day in Singapore, we went out to explore Bugis and Chinatown.  I heard that it is best to go to these places when hunting for souvenirs.  We love buying pasalubong (souvenir or food products) for our friends and family back home.  Yes, most often, it cost a lot but we wanted to share the happiness brought to us by traveling.  I guess that's our culture, Filipinos are so thoughtful. :)

Part4: Singapore Trip Day 2 - SkyPark Observation Deck at Marina Bay Sands Singapore

After Universal Studios Singapore , next on our to do list is to check out the Skypark at Marina Bay Sands Singapore.  I'm such a fan of night view city skyline, so after seeing photos from google image, I didn't think twice, I say 'let's do this!'. :)

Part3: Singapore Trip Day 2 - Resorts World Sentosa's Universal Studios Singapore

Sentosa is a popular resort island in Singapore.  Part of the huge island is the Resorts World Sentosa featuring its main theme park, the Universal Studios Singapore (USS).  We love going to theme parks that's why part of our itinerary was to visit the famous Universal Studios Singapore!  This is it pansit!

Part2: Singapore Trip Day 1 / Day 2 - Suntec City, Makansutra Gluttons Bay, Little India, Orchard Road

It was past 7pm, when we went out and took a bus to Suntec City.  I asked the receptionist from our hostel if there's a bus going there.  From Little India, it costs 1.20SGD to Suntec City.  We used our EZ link card for our transportation.

Part1: Singapore Trip Day 1 - Transportation Guide To Singapore

Singapore is my second out of the country trip early last year.  This prosperous city-state is so well known because of many Filipinos working here, mostly in tourism and IT industry.  This became memorable for me because of the misadventures we had during planning and the trip itself.  Nonetheless, Singapore is worth visiting I'd love to come back.

 Good morning Guimaras! It was a pleasant first day and we're excited to explore more. On our 2nd day in Guimaras, we went for some island hopping before going back to Iloilo.   As I've said in the previous part of this trip series, we chose Raymen Beach Resort because we need other travelers to join us in renting the boat to split cost.  Another couple from Cebu join us as well.

Part1: Iloilo - Guimaras Day 1 - Transportation Guide | Getting to Iloilo and Guimaras

Guimaras' Alubihod Beach

Iloilo and Guimaras are provinces located in the Western Visayas Region. Guimaras is an island located few minutes boat ride away from Iloilo City, that's why most of traveler's route is to visit Guimaras Island as well when they are in Iloilo City. I only have few days to spare, gladly I was able to visit the places I wanted to see.
