Been a very busy time for me recently
Almost 2 weeks traveling around.
Early mornings and late nights have taken their toll and I'm content to just relax at home before another round next week when we'll spend time with family for Philippines Holy Week.
I'm really looking forward to some good fishing trips with likeminded family members next week.
We visited Nabunturan for the Compostela Valley Bulawan Festival.
Highlight for us was the evening concert and closing fireworks display.
That concert was really enjoyable despite being aimed at the younger folks.
The line up consisted of a local, but well known Davao band called Daybreak followed by an impeccable performance from Callalily with Kean Cipriano.
Did the usual 'photo call' with the ComVal Governor.
On the 12th it was my wife's special event the Grand Alumni Homecoming 2016
The first she attended in almost 30 years.
Interesting day for me and a highly charged emotional one for my wife.
We began our travel at 4am in readiness for the 8am Mass and the day continued with events and programs and of course much reminiscing with old school friends.
The evening contained stage performances from stand up comedians as well as another good performace from the Daybreak band. This time focusing on music from the 60's, 70's and 80's rather than the pure rock of the Nabunturan concert.
My wife enjoyed herself so much. We spent a few days enjoying good times with even long lost friends and she is now determined to maintain her attendance for the future.
Those bonds of friendship originally forged at school during informative years are the best and strongest IMO
I hope we can continue.
We're planning to leave Davao City and Mindanao pretty soon and to begin a new chapter of our life in Luzon.
But travel times from Manila to Davao is pretty short and it's always so easy to make the hometown jouney from the airport by taxi.
Life is good
