Gas Station Short-cut

No right turn, says that Tacloban big signage in big bold letters! Eh, don’t we all love doing just exactly that, everytime everywhere? Hmm, maybe these government folks should not approve the construction of any gas station at any corner or cross-road in this country. Or maybe they should ask the gas stations to erect gates hahaha!

All because of us unruly citizens whaaahehehe!

Okay fellow law-abiding pasaway citizens (hehe, am still grinning), where are your favourite such short-cut gas-station corners? I’ll start… my faves are McKinley going EDSA Guadalupe, EDSA going Buendia, Boni going EDSA-Guadalupe, Kamias going Anonas, Jupiter going Paseo-Makati Av, Archbishop Reyes going AS Fortuna, Hernan Cortes going left to *wink wink*, Juana Osmena going Fuente, Valero going Buendia, ahh, too many of them hehe!

THE BOULEVARD, Surigao City

Virtually everyone in Surigao City is related to this boulevard directly or indirectly! It's such a big thing , they even have a Surigao City Boulevard Development Program and a Surigao City Development Authority . I'm not joking. Those are for real. As in! Involved in it are not only their local politicians but also the chambers of commerce. What is it anyway? Foremost it's a 1.8 kilometer stretch of a highway along the seafront.

Aside from being a “park” for the residents, it is supposed to be an attraction in the city, showcasing whatever bla-blah-blah to attract tourists from everywhere on earth. While I was inclined to raise my eyebrows, it did attract me. I was a tourist, right?! So okay, without a speck of d

Carigara Delicacies as Pasalubong

Image
This was still on my joyride from Calubian to Tacloban, we naturally had to pass by Carigara. This time we "stopped-to-shop" oh ha?! My driver promised his three lovely daughters that he would bring home some pasalubong from Carigara, thus the 'shopping'. He went (I followed) to only this roadside store.., Well, he's been a driver for so long a time, I cannot contest his knowledge on where to buy the best of these pasalubongs! There are many stores on this highway strip, and I think they sell the same things! As the driver picked what he had to pick (and haggled with the vendors for more] I clicked hehe! Here's the honest deal about me and these sweets from Carigara - or other sweets from anywhere for that matter: I am not really too keen on any of them, such that I'd crave for, or plan to specifically seek them out. BUT - when I get started with ANY of them, there's no telling when I will/can stop. IF at all! I do not even know or care to know wha
