I could not write anything after what happened in our town because of the typhoon Frank. I heard that it was flooding in our town too. I was worried as I was not able to contact my family in the province. I know, nothing really bad happened to them as I already talked to some members of our family who are not residing in Pandan. But then, I really wanted to talk to my mother. Finally, I was able to talk to my sister-in-law and my mother this morning.

Every April, Pandan celebrates its Tugbong Festival. It’s the time of the year where my family and other relatives get together. I also get to meet some of my friends. With all the activities during the fiesta, I lost my voice the first time I attended an event which was my High School’s Alumni Homecoming on April 22, 2008. See the schedule of activities at the Tugbong Festival Website.

Boracay island has been voted as the best beach in the world a long time ago. I can’t give you any reference as it was the time when there was no internet yet as far as I can recall. Now a days, it’s still being considered somehow as one of the best beaches in the world.

This spring season I went to the Philippines for a vacation. I left Switzerland on April 13, 2008 and then came back on May 07, 2008. Although it was spring here (still spring up to now), it was summer in the Philippines. As usual, I got sick in the Philippines because of dust and heat but it never stopped me from having fun with family and friends.
