Blue Monday: Maxima Aqua Fun

Smiling Sally
Blue is the color associated with water and last June we, my husband, my super friends and I, had a splashing fun at Maxima Aqua Fun located at Ma-a, Davao City. 

entrance to the resort
The resort is a cliff. And with the absence of a sandy beach, the resort still boast of a fun-filled, adventurous activities. With an entrance fee of P200.00 you can enjoy diving and swimming at the ocean, the canopy walk (open on weekends only) and unlimited use of the giant slide.

This is the giant tarpaulin slide extending 40 feet long. I was very nervous to try this but this is what we came for. My husband was the most hesitant among us. He said it is not the slide, it's the 'death-defying water drop'. But everyone tried the slide twice. It was a scream-all-you-want-heart-stopping 10 seconds of my life. The key is to relax and enjoy the moment. 


And here I go...



After the exciting slide it's time for more jump shots...




It's more fun in Davao!

Blue Monday: Birthday Giveaways

Smiling Sally

These are photos from my niece's first birthday last June 1. It was a fun party and everybody had a good time. Especially the celebrant who enjoyed dancing with the party mascot.


Here are her parents wishing her good health.


I love the tarpaulin and the table arrangement for the party giveaways.


But my daughter was not pleased with what she got. Well, it's for the kids only. I have no idea who gave her that. She later gave hers to our neighbor's kid.

Blue Monday: In The Dark

Smiling Sally

It's one of those nights when we experience a power interruption. Our street frequently suffer from power black out due to overloading because of 'jumpers'. To explain simply, 'jumpers' are hackers of electricity. But my nephew and my niece are oblivious about the power black out. They are enjoying themselves watching something from a Samsung tablet. They look very cute and innocent.
