Catsy Carpe Diem

**My entries for Weekend Snapshot**

I was only 5 years then when I had my first visit at Gap Farming Orchard resort which is located along diversion road Maa here in Davao City as our Kindergarten Field Trip. At those times, the place was considered one of the tourist spots here in Davao City in view of the fact it has diverse amenities and facilities that are really suitable for trippers, campers, and good for family outings. With its deluxe cottages and campsites, Olympic size swimming pool, picnic area, horseback riding facilities, convention hall, and a World War II cave among others, it has indeed increased the attractiveness and value of the place to any tourists.

And now after several years, my BF and I decided to visit the place just to see the known “Tourist’s Spot” a long time ago. Surprisingly, some of the picturesque spots have been withered due to wear and tear, deterioration, and I guess since only a few visitors would came in, it has not been properly taken cared of. The emergence of different theme parks such as Crocodile Park, People’s park, and Chic Beach Resorts would have been the reasons as to why only few visitors would came in. Though we’re quite unnerved, but we still managed to enjoy the place since we are already there and savor the beauty of the nature instead.
