Happy Holidays! Rammmpa More!

From Rammmpa!

I know most of us prefer celebrating this lovely holidays with our love ones,

but if there's one person out there who will be welcoming Christmas alone

or probably you're on the road by the time clock ticks to 12 midnight...

May this very warm greeting from my blog reaches your heart

and my prayers to keep you safe always may reach you wherever you are.

Have a blessed Christmas and a peaceful new year to you!

Maxims: A Peep at this “Six-Star Hotel”

Maxims is said to be a six-star hotel, which is a first in the Philippines. Located at Resorts World Manila in New Port, Pasay City, this 170 all-suite hotel and casino is now listed in my Hotels I Wanna Stay In.

Though, I’m not that sure how this hotel was considered a six-star hotel, I had a great time peeping in two of their suites and enjoying the amenities that one can get by staying in here. So, oh, yes, this is kind of an exclusive scoop here at Rammmpa! Hehehe.

Camayan Beach Resort and Hotel

If you are planning for simple road trip or some quick beach bumming but too tire to drive down to the southern part of Luzon, why not head north for a change, take NLEX and SCTEX roads and go straight to Subic? That's where I and 5 of my closest friends spent our Halloween. Hehe. (You can also book Camayan Beach Resort in Subic, Zambales with Traveloka.)

Since, we were kinda used to unplanned getaways, our crazy feet and tight budget brought us, during the Halloween weekend, tot Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) where we spent an afternoon of beach bumming and skin tanning. Hahaha! (as if there's I can still tan my tone. LOL)

It was our first time to visit SBMA on our own, so we were kinda lost and had no idea where to stay. Thank God, that SBMA is really one of the best place near Manila where street signs are there to help you. And along the winding roads of SBMA, we saw the Camayan Beach Resort and Hotel sign and that's when we decided to go straight there.

To my surprise, Camayan Beach Resort and Hotel is just some minutes drive past Zoobic Safari and just some few steps from Ocean Adventure.

Located just around the area of Ocean Adventure, this simple and very nice hotel-resort was formerly known at the Miracle Beach. And miracle as it may seemed that we have found it, this was where we spent a delightful Halloween Get-Together. 

ETON Centris: New Home of SIDCOR Sunday Market

If you can’t find the Sunday Market that you used to love at the Lung Center in East Avenue, Quezon City, don’t pout, because they just moved to a better and bigger venue. Shop ‘til you drop at SIDCOR’s Sunday Market at the new heart of Quezon City, the ETON Centris, Centris Walk.

If you don’t have any plans this coming beautiful Sunday morning, well, why not head to Centris Walk with your family or friends. They will definitely enjoy their Sunday morning with SIDCOR’s wide variety of goodies that they can buy in a very friendly price. Who knows, you can even make “tawad” at the price that you want! Hehehe. So, good luck!

Last Sunday, I was lucky to be there to witness their first Sunday at Centris Walk. And oh, boy! The place was just so lovely!

Makati Lights Up for Holidays 2010!

It is the most wonderful time of the year again, and as part of their most joyous and heart-warming celebration, Makati City in cooperation with Ayala Land lighted up the three main avenues of Makati Central Business District for Yuletide 2010!

I was there when the switching on ceremony happened, and I together with thousands of spectators from different walks of life got the first glimpse of the wonderfully adorned avenues of Ayala, Makati and Paseo de Roxas.

Safari Night at Zoobic Safari

I and 4 of close friends had a Halloween celebration at Subic last weekend. And since we're not kids anymore, we celebrated it a day before. Hehehe.


Our destination... Zoobic Safari! Wee!

We learned that Zoobic Safari will be having their first-ever Night Safari, so we thought that spending a night with some scary, eye-glistening-in-the-dark animals can be more scary than those ghost stories, so with our bags all packed, we all headed to Subic!


According to their posters, Night Safari trips will start at around 5pm, and because we arrived there 30 minutes earlier, we spent some of our time looking at some attraction around the receiving area and took some pictures of them.

La Loma Catholic Cemetery

A week before Halloween creeps into our nerves, let me start the scaring by sharing to you these photos that I took when I visited the niche of my cousin at La Loma Catholic Cemetery.

La Loma is situated at the boundary of Manila and Caloocan cities,a stone-throw away from the famous Chinese Cemetery of Manila.

Feast of Rosario, Pasig

I barely got to attend town feast, because for one I didn’t know their exact dates. Most of the time, dates of town feasts change depending on the Sundays of the year or to some, they just stick to a specific date that no matter what, rain or shone, they celebrate this once a year town celebration.

 

Feasts back in the old days were celebrated to give thanks to their patron with a grandeur celebration with lotsa, lotsa food everywhere.

Jellies: The Dancing Fairies

Have you experience diving under the water at night? Have you seen a wonderful play of color brought to us by some natural elements? Have you been to Manila Ocean Park’s Jellies: The Dancing Fairies?

Well, if your answers to all of my questions are big N-O!

Well, put no more, because with the exciting and very affordable promo of Manila Ocean Park this October, you’ll get to see, feel and enjoy all of the sights and sound of this exciting and captivating place.

Mines View Park Hotel: Sharing the Best of Baguio City

When I went to Baguio City with my officemates two years ago for the Panagbengga Festival, our greatest problem that we faced back then was finding a suitable and friendly place where we can enjoy the peaceful and cool surroundings of Baguio City and the crowded and colourful event of Panagbengga. And since it was peak season, we didn’t have any choice but to get the last place offered to us, a transient near the Crystal Cave – what a kill joy!

But now after learning that there’s this new place that offers the best of Baguio City, I think when we plan again to see next year’s Panagbengga Festival, we can then have a place that will make our trip truly memorable – Mines View Park Hotel.

Rammmpa at Residence Inn – Tagaytay

I love Tagaytay. 

Tagaytay hold a very special place in my heart because I used to spend a tiny part of my life there and the whole time that I was there with my family was, I think, the best part of our lives.

And, now, everything has changed. But I still L-O-V-E Tagaytay! Wee!

So now, let me tour you to one of Tagaytay’s pride, the new and improved Residence Inn Tagaytay!

 
Under the supervision of Zoomanity Group of Yupangco Group of Companies, Residence Inn in Tagaytay offers amenities which you can only find and experience in Tagaytay.

Upon the entrance, you’ll notice the garden-like or forest-like decoration that awaits you when you enter this place.

Gossip Girls Goes Gaga Over F1 Fever at Il Ponticello

This was the best bar for me! The crowd is so young and the music is so fun, anybody who would want to feel young and be part of the Gossip Girl generation must certainly pay a Saturday night visit at Il Ponticello.

As the new and young racers all geared up for the 2010 Formula One^TM Singtel Singapore Grand Prix, all the Gossip Girl generation guys and gals dressed up and ready to party all night long as Il Ponticello prepared an outstanding and super fun Rev and Rave Party!

F1 Takes the Center Aisle at Side Bar

One great thing that I'm looking forward in visiting a great place like Singapore is the food that they offer. I love how the culture in Singapore mixed so well, based from all the stuff that I saw on TV. So, if ever I'll have a chance to visit Singapore this coming September for the 2010 Formula One^TM Singtel Singapore Grand Prix, one part of my itinerary will be visiting authentic and great restaurants.

But for now, since I'm just one of the many fanatics who are so excited about this car-racing event of the year, I might as well enjoy what the metro has to offer to rev up the excitement of this year’s competition.

Eivissa Superclub Revs Up for the F1 Race!

Yes, as my wonderful journey into discovering the tension and excitement that 2010 Formula One^TM Singtel Singapore Grand Prix is sharing to Manila, I visited Eivissa Superclub at Tomas Morato in Quezon City too feel the energy and the love that we have for this spectacular car-racing event of the year.

I’ve been receiving quite a lot of invitations to visit this place in this side of town, and due to my busy schedule, I cannot accommodate them.... Not until I learned that they have one of the most fantastic preparations for this upcoming racing event.
