#CavEAT: Cavinti Eco-Adventure Tour on January 10 to 11

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Your friendly neighborhood Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas is excited to share that I will be joining the #CavEAT: Cavinti Eco-Adventure Tour on January 10-11, 2015.

#CavEAT: Cavinti Eco-Adventure Tour is a Tourism Advocacy Campaign organized for the Municipality of Cavinti, Laguna to help promote and raise online awareness for the upcoming Cavinti Water Sports Olympics: 1st International Competition the municipality is organizing on February 8-14, 2015.

The tour includes interesting activities and places that tourists could enjoy when they visit the municipality, showcasing the beautiful wonders of man-made and natural landscapes that the visitors could explore and enjoy. Since I love nature so much, I'm betting I would be taking lots of photos of the sights, and definitely take some videos as well. This adventure will be so nice to add as a travel feature in my blog.

Highlights of the tour will be the alternative route going to the Cavinti Falls, formerly known as Pagsanjan Falls, by way of trekking and rappelling down to the falls passing through the thick and forested El Pueblo del Salvador Eco-Park.

Magical Winter Tale at Crown Asia Valenza in Sta. Rosa Laguna

Wazzup Pilipinas!


Christmas is happening in just a few days. Everyone has the holiday season spirit running in their veins and are all ready for the upcoming long Christmas vacation.

But before the season ends, you may want to take your friends or family out to visit the Magical Winter Tale Christmas-themed display at Crown Asia Valenza located in Sta. Rosa Laguna.

There's a magnificent structure that resembles the ice castle that can be seen on the Disney movie Frozen. Though the management of Crown Asia would not like to advertise it specifically as the actual ice castle, seeing images of familiar characters, such as Olaf the comic-relief snowman that can also be seen in the movie, are there to remind us where they got the inspiration to setup this multi-colored light display.

The Frozen movie, with its famous characters like Elsa and Anna, has been a worldwide sensation that it seems all with access to the Internet, radio or television has one way or another is either singing or humming the two soundtracks from the movie - "Let It Go" and "Do You Wanna Build a Snowman."

ER Ejercito Steps Down to Avoid Further Turmoil: Hoping to Return in Position Soon

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Pansamantala nating nilisan ang kapitolyo ng Laguna upang panatilihan ang kaayusan at katahimikan sa Lalawigan ng Laguna. Base na rin sa paki-usap at payo ng aking tiyuhin at dating Pangulo Joseph "Erap" Estrada tayo ay pansamantang bumaba bilang gobernador upang hintayin ang ating apela sa Supreme Court para sa TRO o status quo order sapagka't ako ay naniniwala na magiging patas ang kanilang hatol at papakinggan ang boses ng 550,000 na lagunense na naglagay sa akin sa katungkulan bilang ama ng lalawigan. Nawa tayo ay patuloy na magdasal at magkaisa para sa ating minamahal na Lalawigan ng Laguna!" - ER Ejercito

Even when Ramil Hernandez stepped in and declared himself as the new governor after the COMELEC has disqualified the current governor for overspending during the elections, ER Ejercito was still determined to stay as governor. But it took his uncle, former president Joseph "Erap" Estrada to finally convince him to step down for the sake of peace and order.

Erap even told the people that the same situation happened to him during his term as president when he voluntarily stepped down to avoid further turmoil, but thern he said also that "the Agila will return" (and so he did as Mayor of Manila), the same with ER when he said "the Lawin will return!", but maybe not as governor again, like his uncle, probably getting another position in government.
