Weekend Snapshot- GAP FARMING ORCHARD RESORT

6 Comments Posted by Catsy_Carpe Diem at Monday, February 18, 2008




**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.

Seizing the Day!

These photos were taken last Friday when the Rosary Group (Angels of the Lords) went to visit and threw a small birthday bash to our beloved Kuya King who is currently taking Theology at St. Francis Xavier Regional Major Seminary at Catalunan Grande, Davao City. He's actually the one who spearheaded and created the Rosary Group and we're on our 4th year now still holding hand in hand praying the Holy Rosary. Anyway, only a few of us visited him but truly was taken aback for he didn’t know that we will be visiting him on his sanctuary giving our wishes and prayers for his another chapter of life. We really had a great time, learning a lot from his journey to life, sharing about his great experiences while staying in the Seminary studying Theology and of course he also reiterated about the upcoming Season of Lent. The presence of God was within us considering the place is very secluded and very solemn. After the event, we all bid him goodbye and thanked him for everything he taught us, it was indeed an unforgettable experience being under his Holy tutelage. Got here some pics of our momentous escapade..


On our way home we happened to pass by the
Holy Spirit Adoration Chapel (Pink Sisters)

My First Driving Escapade

0 Comments Posted by Catsy_Carpe Diem at Monday, December 03, 2007

Nerve-racking and I was so tensed when I started the engine for my first driving experience heading downtown this afternoon. Actually it’s supposed to be my twin sister since I believe she’s more confident to take the wheels but the problem is, she haven’t acquired a Driver’s License yet, so I decided to take the lead instead.

Well I was not really confident at all since I just recently got my Driver’s License last week and only few of those driving tips I have somehow grasped during the seminar and the actual driving which in fact I was under my twin sister’s tutelage for just two weeks. Sometimes, when I am caught in the traffic, I can't help my knees but to shake and praying that I can surpass that traffic which I used to call it “labyrinth.” There are also times when I’m really having difficulties and troubles in parallel parking just like when we headed to Citihardware to buy some ceramics and some Christmas decors at NCCC Mall afterwards. My face really turned red when that guard on duty has caught my attention when he uttering something I couldn't understand, perhaps he’s thinking about me being so ignorant on parking the car...Well..Funny how it is but we all drove home safe and sound... And I’m ready for the next driving adventure... Hope I couldn’t meet any accident on my next escapade. Ciao...♫♫♪
