Two
great discoveries in Boracay |
|
I WAS able to squeeze in some time to fly to Boracay
a few weeks before the exodus of the metro crowd to this tropical
paradise. By this time, I’m sure that there are more than a
million footprints on the powdery shores and in a few days,
multitudes will troop to what is touted as the Filipinos’ favorite
Holy Week destination of all time.
One of the reasons why this
island remains to be the preferred place for an unforgettable summer
is the fact that it always offers something new to the vacationistas.

pavement.

Microtel is one of the newest
resort-hotels on the island. Its charm lies in the fact that it is
far away from the center of activities where loud music, busy
peddlers and all-night weekend fun-seekers converge.

A ball like no
other

NO one can beat The Peninsula
Manila when it comes to throwing parties.
The Lobby of The Pen had just been renovated and “le toute Manille”—at
least those who didn’t make it to the fabulous 30th anniversary
party..

CALIFORNIA DREAMING

SAN FRANCISCO, California: Have
you been to the “Mission” lately? To most San Franciscans, the
Mission is that long stretch of road that starts as a fringe of the
financial district in downtown San Francisco and moves on to end in
Daly City several miles away.

IT all began with a simple enough
argument about being late. Soon, however, after a sharp exchange of
