Pinay Travels

Our flight out of Manila was quarter before ten in the evening.  Me and my companions are very excited of the flight as it would be our first flight to the Northern part of the Philippines, much more to the famous Ilocandia region - Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur.

Unfortunately, we were stranded in the island.

Last week, Friday, I went along with some of Administrative officers to check out an important property in Camiguin. To find out later, the exact location was in Sagay. We started from home at 3AM and after a land trip and a short time sailing from Balinguan to Benoni pier, we arrived Camiguin safely. We had breafast at J & A Fishpen Restaurant . @ the front of the restaurant It was here that the guy took the fishes for our orders. So it is like you point and they catch that for you and they cook it according to what you like. Before our orders arrived, we had the time to around the place and took some photos.  Here are some more of my clicked photos: We ordered fish tinola and grilled fish. A simple but satisfying Filipino breakfast. The warm soup really warmed our cold tummies. :)  After sometime, our ordered arrived! ++++ J & A Resort and Restaurant Taguines Lagoon Benoni, Camiguin A very accessible place to dine when you arrive Camiguin through Benoni Pier.
