We Found A 500 Year Old Boholana

Look what James and I found at the Bohol National Museum. It's a dead woman's skeletal system! First time to see a whole dead human's skeletal system intact!
The label in front states:

A 500 Year Old Boholana was recovered in May 1970 at the pre-spanish burial site in Mansasa, City of Tagbilaran Bohol by the archeological excavation project of the University Museum, Ateneo de Manila University in collaboration with the National Museum.
The truth is, there were a couple of skulls inside the museum, I wondered if they might be my ancestors or something.

Canawa Spring Animation


So how did your February 14 go? Did you have a romantic date with your man or maybe received your sweet chocolates and white roses? Or maybe your man had sent out a big cuddly bear?

I had just the best hearts day of my life so far because I had spent it with James and my family. Though we were not complete that day and that the weather didn't seem to cooperate, we still managed to go on a road trip. We planned to go on tour but we cancelled it because of the bad weather. It has been raining the whole week and it wasn't a great time to start on a tour around the province.

At noon, the sun started to smile so we headed to two destinations. First we went to Canawa Spring then in Quinale Beach Resort which I will be blogging about next time, it was a not good decision though because when we reach there, the water was not good due to the rain the previous days. However, we made the best out of the trip, we had a photoshoot instead. Check how we enjoyed the multiple shots:

Jojie's Painitang Bol-anon


Going back to work from a vacation means bringing home a "pasalubong". Pasalubong is any gift or souvenir brought for a family, loved ones or friends after being away for a period of time.

For almost three years, I would always buy Calamay or Peanut Kisses as pasalubong to my colleagues whenever I go home for vacation. For those who are not familiar with the two, Calamay is a sticky sweet famous delicacy of Bohol, it has been famous because of it is distinctively sold inside halved smooth coconut shells, but nowadays, this has been sold in plastic containers also for convenience. Peanut Kisses on the other hand is made from peanuts and egg whites shaped like miniature Chocolate Hills, the famous tourist spot in the island.

Hill-Top Viewing at Sunflower Malbog Resort


At the hills of Malbog Jagna, Bohol rises an airy family resort named Sunflower Malbog resort. Owned by Mrs. Sarah Gallendez, you will never expect something like this to emerged because the hills are quiet distant from the main town. James and I together with my family had a chance to spend an entire afternoon there enjoying ourselves with nature's beauty right before our eyes. 

Approximately two kilometers away from downtown jagna. you won't be worried because soon trail signs will be placed in each corners to guide the visitors. The resort is still undergoing development, they will be opening it for the public before this year ends. But actually, since their KTV bar is already ready, they would allow some customers to use it.

Since the resort is still under construction, the resort offers videoke bars as of the moment. However, as per the management, once the resort is done, they will be offering a lot of services which they haven't disclosed yet. Their KTV is cheap, you can play two songs for just Php 5.00
