We Are Family

Mama and Papa confrimed that they will be here for the Holy Week. Yipeee! We are all excited.  You see, they seldom come over because they’re running the hardware in Ilocos. My dad’s last visit was when B.boy was born and to think he has only seen his grandson twice. Mama visited us this month and we treated her to a dinner in Greenbelt. This time, they will be here for 4 days, starting Arpil 4 to 8. I’m sure they will have loads of fun with B.boy.

Since they’ll be coming over, we are organizing a trip to Tagaytay. It’s been ages since they last went there. We used to go there weekly when i was just around 4 years old. We will buy beef and sell it in Cavite. Oh! my sister and i loved those trips with our old Beetle. Whenever we go home the Beetle was full of beef and senorita bananas.   :)  I’m sure the folks will reminisce the good old times when they return.

We are planning for an overnight stay. We’ll leave Friday morning and return Saturday afternoon. We must plan and book the accomodations early as people will go on holiday too. I’m thinking of staying at Sonya’s Bed and Breakfast but the rates almost kill me. It’s 2,800 per person and since there will be 6 of us, it’s a whooping 16,800 for an overnight stay.    :(    Next option is Nurture Spa. We’ve been there last year and had a great time. Their room rate is 2,500 and it is good for 2 people. We can get an extra bed for 500. If we are get 2 rooms and 2 extra beds, it would cost us 6K. Not bad! But we found something better.

One blog mentioned Mi-Jo Hotel. I got curious and looked at their website. It looks promising and the rates are very reasonable. The location is great too. It’s very near the dining places. They have a Manila number so I called them up and reserve. Since it’s the Holy Week, they asked me to deposit 50% of the Family Room rates. The person I talked to was very nice and i will make the deposit after discussing it with Morning. I guess he will agree with my choice since it is more economical. We can use the extra money eating out. 
Oh how I miss Bag O’Beans! Would you know if shops and restaurants would be open?
