SUMMER 2015: TOURING WESTERN MINDANAO DAY 3

It's 6:30 am and we went for a walk and for breakfast. We had our free breakfast at this Thai like restaurant. It's a plated in breakfast with two options. You can either have pork tocino or chicken sausage with scrambled eggs paired with coffee. I ordered the tocino and hubby had the chicken sausage. I was not really in the mood to eat, and the food was not that good, so hubby finished my meal. 

After eating, we went back to our room to wake up our sleeping son. Immediately he got up. Swimming is probably his most favorite thing to do right now.He is just 3 yrs old but is not afraid of the deep.


                                                                       Some beechneering.


                                                                   Jump shots in the beach.


                                                                                     Chillin in an 8.5 ft deep pool.

We still got 3 hours before check out and we made use of that time. Check out is 12 noon but we can still opt to stay in the resort and use their amenities until 5 pm. But we decided not to for we will still travel back to Dipolog and then Molave.

                                                                               Bye for now Dakak. It was a nice stay.


Went back again to Dipolog and had our lunch at penong's. We ordered the good for 4 set that comprises with seafoods, oysters, shrimps, fish, calamares and a green mango side dish with one pitcher of iced tea. This costs 629 pesos and their rice costs 23 pesos and is already unlimited. For our lunch, I paid around 800 pesos. Oh, and by the way, on the way to Dipolog, we stopped by some fish stalls and bought this huge fish for only 120 pesos. Bought another kilo for 100 pesos which if you buy in our place,will cost you 200 pesos.

And off we go to Molave. Along the way, we turned left on this very rough road that my hubby seemed unsure if it's the right way. Were already 500 meters away from where we turned, and he was still not sure if it's the right path. So,we asked some people nearby. They said it's a shortcut to where we are going. And that was a relief for all of us,thinking we were lost. It was still a long way ahead, probably 3 hours to Molave. We passed by these towns; Katipunan, Sergio Osmena, Josefina, Dumingag, Mahayag and Molave, Zamboanga del Sur.

                                                                The view is like this from Dipolog to Molave.


Finally arrived after hours of travel. Checked in at Aleksandra hotel for 2 nights. Standard rooms that can fit 3 people cost me 700/night. The price is not bad but I think the hotel lacked maintenance. It's not clean, no staff in the front desk and the worst part of the hotel is that a disco bar is underneath our room. Now, how are you gonna sleep with that? But because of the long trip we had, we still had a goodnight sleep.
