Sunday is Family Day

I spent my last Sunday in the PI by going out of the city and heading towards the north. My family and I went to my brother-in-law's hometown in Pangasinan before we went to Manaoag to have our car blessed and to attend the Sunday mass as well. It was a 4 hour-drive from Manila via the new NLEX (North-Luzon Expressway), we left our house at 3am and reached our destination at around 7am.

The view that greeted us in the early morning was spectacular! I have not been out of Manila since 2007, so when i opened my eyes after a nap, it was just breathtaking!

After visiting Manaoag church, we drove back to Tarlac to have our lunch at Isdaan. The restaurant is huge and the food was really tasty!not to mention the SINGING COOKS AND WAITERS are really talented! They will entertain guests as you order and dine in the comfort and awe of the place! It was a really great place for the whole family as there are a lot of things to do for both the youngs and "young once":) My nieces and nephew enjoyed taking photos of themselves around the area!

(Dinosaurs are there to the delight of kids!)

We topped our long day by visiting Subic to do a little shopping at Duty Free! It was a day worth spending time and energy with people whom I love the most!
