Summer @ Villa Escudero May 5, 2009

Second summer outing for this year is at Villa Escudero with WBC. Rodel was the designated driver (Thanks, Odj!). Rache and Venus were the designated photographers. Teret, Rose and the Bs were well, just there to enjoy. Hehe!
The villa did not change a bit since I last went there around 15 years ago. Food was delish, place was nice and well kept, and their museum was interesting. On the way home, an unplanned stop at Kusina Salud (one of the destinations in Viaje Del Sol) in San Pablo was made. We had a sumptuous dinner of Ensaladang Pako, Seafood Kare-kare, Carabao Meat with Coconut, and Sinampalukang Chicken Hainanese, and dessert was Sansrival and Turon (although turon at Sonya’s Garden is better).
More pictures here.
Next stop: Tagaytay? 
Btw, it didn’t really seemed like summer because it was raining the whole day.

I was still high from my FNM & PR when Beej and I went out last Sunday to make the long-planned and awaited “re-visit” to the Azcunas. 
We had this:
1. International food (naks, kala mo kung ano no?) — Filipino (nilagang baka), Mexican (beef tacos), Japanese (sushi & maki) & Italian (pizza), plus what seemed like a bottomless supply of chips and drinks.
And this:
2. International games (hehe, kunwari lang) — Scene It: Friends, Guesstures, Taboo and Cranium. We even had a couple of other games in hand — Scene It: Movies, Scrabble, Clue, and a bunch of other games in Jerome’s van.
It was girls vs. boys. And as expected, winner ang girls (nagsama ba naman sina Rache & Rose on a Friends trivia game… saan ka pa?). At winner si Wing (Star Performer!), with his “Bloom” and “Insomnia” performances. Haha!
Sana maulit.
