May 14, 2008 - WHITE WATER RAFTING IN TAMUGAN, CALINAN
While this is a leisure activity and a great deal of fun, it is also an extreme sport. Kaya ang gustong gumaya…take your own risk!

Zu Risiken und Nebenwirkungen fragen Sie Ihren Mann oder Metzger.

Rafting on the Davao River is an experience that is difficult to describe. Rafting the Davao River is truly an experience that you have to see and to believe. The scenic beauty alone is worth the trip, as you carve your way through towering mountains that are all covered by lush, vibrant green jungle. We even pulled into a small river cave at one point along the rafting trip.

But of course, the most amazing part of the trip was the rafting action. That is, after all, why we were there, and there was plenty of action and enjoyment amidst the white water waves. Pure Adrenalin! Pure Excitement! Pure Adventure!

And the adventure begun with a briefing…

At the end of the rafting video, we all loaded ourselves and our rafting equipment into a shuttle bus, with one raft and two kayaks strapped to the top, and began our journey to the put in point.

After driving for about an hour we reached the isolated community of Tamugan, Calinan, which was the landing point for embarking on the white water trip. Before going to our rafts, we received additional safety instructions. This started with simply making sure everyone had their helmets and vests properly secured, how to do “easy paddle”, “hard paddle”, “forward paddle” and “back paddle”. And told us that we should practice rescuing a person who fell off the raft.

And I feel my adrenaline before rafting has begun…

Until we reached…

the pull out point in Lacon. We had rafted 13 kilometers down the river’s rapids, nearly 10% of the river’s 163 kilometer length. (Click image to enlarge)

We were tired…but happy and crazy than ever! (Click image to enlarge)

May 13, 2008 - Scuba Diving in Limao, Samal Island

The weather was sunny, mixed with clouds. A slight wind was blowing out of the south cooling the heat of the day. It was almost 10:00 o’clock as we left Sta. Ana wharf, heading to the diving point. The boat ride was not bad at all even if the sea was a bit rough. But as we anchored in Limao, the boat started rocking back and forth. After awhile, Malen starts feeling giddy and nauseatic and so Reynz and Ambo. Ang aming “Nautica Team” ay naging “Nauseatic Team”. Ang dilis na kanilang kinain sa almusal ay bumalik din sa kanilang pinanggalingan. Muntik ng mapalpak ang scuba diving ng tatlo, pero matapos nilang ibuga sa dagat ang sama sa tiyan na kanilang naramdaman. Nakumbinsi ko rin silang mas maiging pumunta sa tubig kaysa manatili sa bangka. Si Ambo ay nagdalang tao, este nagdalawang isip nung una dahil may takot siya sa ilalim ng tubig. Baka daw kasi may bakulaw, tikbalang, aswang at kong anek-anek pang halimaw. But I reassured him na wala, kundi serena lang na nagsa Santa Cruzan. Naku, parang kidlat sa bilis na napabihis si Ambolicious. Hangad niya kasing makita si Dyisebel o si Loreley. Our group was split into two dahil dalawa lang ang avialable na dive master. Nauna si Malen at Ambo.

Malen

Ambo

After the two, kami ni Reynz and Kathleen ang sumunod. Reynz really felt so bad dahil ang nausea niya ay may kakambal na headache. Kaya ayaw na talaga sana niyang magdive. Pero at the end, nagwagi din ang kanyang pagkavavaeh na may male ego.

Her Majesty Reyna Elena

Yours trulily Tita Poorsya

Kathleen

Now mga kabisyo, mga kapuso at mga usyuserang lurker. If you feel like exploring the bottom of the sea then dare to dive!

Reyna Elena And Co In Durianland Day1

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

EB with The Royal Highness Reyna Elena, nagtatanging binibining nag-nonosebleed na si Malen and the ever ambisyosong Pinoy na si Ambo.

May 12, 2008 - Day 1 - PEARL FARM
It was a blessing for all of us na una kong pina-schedule ang Pearl Farm Beach Resort bago ang extreme activities. Dahil lahat kami ang puro walang tulog the night before. Reynz arrived in Manila from Philadelphia around past 11:00 o’clock in the evening. Ihinatid lang niya ang iba niyang mga gamit sa kanyang condominium and after that siya ay sumugod na rin kaagad papuntang domestic airport to catch the flight to Durianland with Malen and Ambo.

They arrived around 5:50 in the morning. Buti nalang on time akong dumating para sunduin sila, dahil halos umaga rin na nang ako’y maidlip. Sa airport palang ay nagsimula na ang aming never ending na halakhakan. After breakfast, halos hindi pa nalunok ang huling subo, madaliang umalis kami papuntang Marina Wharf where our boat was waiting for us. Sa kakapictorial namin ay muntik na kaming maiwanan. Well, what is vacation nga naman without pictyurs. Di vah?

Whoever said na ang Pearl Farm ay hindi maganda…well, let the pictures speak for you. At tingnan niyo kong gaano kasaya, ka baliw, ka whatever fun we had on this first day of our EB.

By the way, nasa first day palang tayo dear ones. Next post will be our scuba diving experiences last May 13 and wild water rafting.

EB With Sofie And The Great Surprise

Monday, May 5th, 2008

The EB Mania started when kids and I arrived in Manila. There I met real nice people whom I only knew through blogging. Si Sofie naman ay naging kabarkada ko rin sa blog, but we already got the chance to meet personally two years ago kasama si Atinna - isang kabarkadang blogista din na takot daw sa sausage (don’t know which one). From then on, hindi na naputol ang communication namin. Sofie emailed me before she arrived Philippines and informed me that she’s coming to the Durianland to visit us. I thought she was just kidding pero talagang tinutuo niya ito. Hehehe, may word of honor talaga ang bakletang ito. She arrived last May 2 and left yesterday evening. It was indeed just a very short visit and even if kaming dalawa lang…folks believe me or not…we had lots of fun.

Iniwanan niya akong my dark circles sa mata dahil hindi matapos-tapos ang aming kuwentuhan. On May 3rd, we decided to go to Paradise Beach Resort dahil fully book ang Pearl Farm. It was already afternoon as we arrived because we went shopping first. We actually wanted to buy some bottles of wine para dalhin ito sa resort. But I advised her not to because of the outrageously high corkage rate. So ayon wala na kaming binitbit aside from a pack of Puto, Kutsinta and Pili-pili. And guess what, pati ba naman yon ay pinaiwanan pa nila sa reception. Kesyo bawal daw ang magdala ng pagkain sa cottage at kong anek-anek pang bawal. Like hindi rin pwedeng magdala nang alcoholic drinks kahit sa terrace ng cottage. Pero ang hindi nila alam, may nailusot pa rin kaming kakanin na hindi nila nakita during the inspection. Aside from the kakanin, hagikhikan pa rin kami sa cottage namin kahit bawal ang gumawa ng noise. Susme, para naman silang home for the aged instead na resort. I understand that some guests are there to relax, pero paano nalang ang mga guests na katulad namin ni Sofie? Haay naku, basta’t I promised that they will never see our faces there again. Nevahh! May iba pang resort noh?

On our way to Paradise Beach in Samal Island. Medyo malinaw pa ang isipan ko dito.

Kinabukasan…ako po ay natuleleng. Tuleleng na umakyat sa puno ng niyog, namitas…

at ibininta ang Buko…para sana magka-moolah. Pero walang naibinta kaya walang pera.

Pera na kailangan ko sana para pambili ng special Halo-Halo. Haay tsalap.

Pati si Kathleen ay nahawa na rin sa kahibangan nang ina niya at dinilaan na ang karatola.

Si Kulet-Bulelet naman ay naki Limbo na sa mga dancers.

Habang si Sofie ay busy sa kakakuha ng pictures.

Alas tres na nang hapon ng kami ay umuwi kahapon. And as we arrived home…a great surprise was waiting for me. A beautiful bouquet of flowers was neatly laid on our dining table.

And it was from my ever loving husband…

Schatz, du bist einzigartig auf dieser Welt…ICH HAB’ DICH SEHR SEHR LIEB.

Coming up next…EB with Reynz, Malen and Ambo here in Durianland next week!

Watch And Win

Online Casino is very popular nowadays. I guess playing any game that requires betting is not bad as long as you do not abuse it. Going online which is done by professional players prove to be really popular that’s why more online gaming sites offer many new games to choose from. And online gaming are now regulated in order to protect the players. But in my opinion, no matter how regulated or strict these websites are, still it depends on the player himself to stay smart and not let gaming or gambling rule him.

So, speaking of poker. I would like to inform you that there is going to be a live broadcast of the final offline 888.com WPC tournament. What is 888.com WPC? WPC stands for World Poker Crown and 888.com is their official website and it is one of the biggest online gambling companies who decided to give all poker players around the world the chance to win millions of dollars.

While this is mostly an online poker tournament, the 888WPC final event will take place at a casino as a live poker event. The final 8 players that reach the final stage of the online tournament will be invited to play in this exclusive event.

This huge prize is for anyone to take. The World Poker Crown Final Event will be held at Perlada Castle in Barcelona, Spain between May 8th to May 10th will be broadcast live on television and the internet. To those who are interested, visit world poker crown for more information.

Happy Fathers Day Mein Schatz

Here is a poem for you!

MANY POEMS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN

Many poems have been written to explain,
How a mother’s love can soothe the pain.
But little has been said about a Father’s concern,
So.. now… I think it must be his turn.

A Father’s love for his offspring,
Is just like that of a solid gold ring.
No matter what, it is unending,
Never breaking; though.. sometimes bending.

His love is as strong as a mother’s; although…
Due to his personality, it sometimes doesn’t show.
There is no question of how strong..
Or of its lasting…however long.

So no matter if his child is good or bad,
There is no Love stronger, than that of a Dad.

ZUM VATERTAG WÜNSCHEN WIR DIR ALLES GUTE UND LIEBE

Ellumbra The Shammer Was Here

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Picture of the week!

Guess what people who visited me just recently? The Golden Goose Pimple came as expected and yes he told me that I have joined the ranks of the scammers. And he said pa noh na: We or I am just doing it for fun, for traffic, for friends, for fear of standing up for an obvious truth, countless reasons. All wrong daw. I am amused so here is my applause.

My question to you Mr. Shammer. If you think what we are doing is just for fun, for traffic and for whatsoever. What do you think you are doing? It is obvious that you are CRAVING FOR ATTENTION and FISHING FOR SYMPHATHIES you never deserve. At the expense of your girlfriend and the people whom you got acquainted with, and people who didn’t even know you ever exist in this world. You blind people with your HOAX stories. And don’t you ever tell me I know nothing because I spent the whole night reading your trash.
