Davao Quickie

Homesickness led me back to my hometown Davao last week.

With sheer determination, I was able to survive flying alone with my toddler. It wasn't that bad. In fact, it was a breeze. She cooperated and was playful. Not fussy at all. She wowed the passengers in our row as well as the flight attendants who wanted the chance to carry her. One FA wanted to keep her!

We spent a total of 7 days in Davao. My husband M followed on the 5th night and we went to the beach on the 6th day, Friday.

I was supposed to book a night at Chemas by the Sea but it was fully-booked so I settled for the resort beside it - Blue Waters which wasn't that fantastic. That's another story.

Of course, I went to Harana but ate there before my husband arrived. He isn't really fond of Harana. It was also the first time for me to dine at Bigby's and I was surprised that the food tasted good. The biggest surprise was on the last day when we had glorious crabs for lunch at Asia Restaurant.

It was a week of quality time spent with my parents. I'm glad I took the time to visit them.
