Visit Family

We go to visit relatives. My dad had a brother and sister that live there in Bulacan -- home of the fireworks, so I get to visit cousins and the rest of the extended family. My mom has a sister, aunts, and other relatives, we visit them in Zambales (near Subic). My grandfather (mom's dad deceased) is from Bicol. I hope to go there in the next year or so.

Relax & Shop & Eat

So we go to relax, sight see, check out the handicrafts, mango season, and just enjoy ourselves. My kids love it too.
