Bacolod: More than just a variety of colors...

The RUINS: re- visited


DON MARIANO LEDESMA LACSON MANSION

The Ruins in Talisay City

       Yesterday, we decided to take a tour at the Ruins since some of my family members di pa nakakapunta. We had a blast kahit we were directly hit ng haring araw. ANG INIT!!! but worth it.

       Yun, there will be an entrance pero kayang kaya nyo yan..hahhaha..sa adult its only 40 pesos, student 30 pesos and children ages below 8 years old free ata. Can't remember na amnesia na ako sa init. A sort of advice punta kayo dun before sunset para you are comfortable while  having a photoshoot.




i can't resist..







jump shot with my family. bibong- bibo sila kahit grabi ang init!











night shot..


i might upload another set of my ruins escapade kung di ako tinatamad.hehhe...

Need flowers???



Bacolod Public Plaza Flower Shops

                   If someone will ask me where to buy such beautiful and not-so expensive flowers--- my answer?
no doubt..its in Bacolod Public Plaza. The place is very accessible, neat and safe with different kinds of flowers to choose with. It is just a walking distance  from Sm City Bacolod  and the historic San Sebastian Cathedral. 

More than just a cathedral

JOURNEY. MANILA-BACOLOD. well, its true.There's no place like HOME. Kaya ito babalik na ulit sa tinaguriang "City of Smiles" walang iba kundi-- BACOLOD City- my home. 


NINOY AQUINO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT 3
one of the most modern airports in our country today but sad to say di talaga na maximized yung terminal. So far, 2 airlines lang ang gumagamit- Cebu Pacific and Air Philippines.

Cebu Pacific 9 am. That's my flight sked kaya yun as early as 3 AM I am already awake. All my things were packed na and im ready to rock and roll kulang na lang eh sisigaw ako ng...BACOLOD HERE I COME! which I actually did (in my mind) hahaha. 

0630 AM nandun na ako sa loob ng terminal (amazed ako) and at 0700 AM the baggage counter was open na. Early gumising, early nakacheck in-- so what does it mean?..yup, photoshoot na!

So here's what ive got about NAIA 3:

Variety of shops are located at the Third level of the terminal.

Now open to serve you!

KFC opens 200th store
By MAE SINGUAY

BACOLOD City – The Kentucky Fried Chicken, most commonly known as KFC, yesterday opened it 200th store in the country along Lacson Street here, fronting the Capitol Lagoon.

According to Chacha Juinio, general manager of KFC, the branch in Lacson Street is the first “standing store” they established in the Visayas and Mindanao areas.


KFC-Lacson, Juinio said, is third KFC branch here.

The other two are in Robinson’s Place and SM Mall.

KFC decided to put up a branch in Lacson Street, Juinio said, since the other two branches have been doing well.

The 24/7 store hours, delivery service and the drive thru — these are all what makes KFC’s 200th store unique, said Juinio.

The following services are not available in the other branches here because they are located in the malls, Juinio said.

During the opening, the company held a motorcade and distributed giveaways to the branch’s first 100 customers.

KFC, tested for its best-tasting fried chicken and gravy, assures its customers of quality service and products.

The food chain was earlier inaugurated by Mayor Evelio Leonardia./PN
