Hi guys! holy week is fast approaching. It's time to make some reflections and self renewal isn't it? However, aside from that where do you want to spend the holy week? I'm so eager and excited because me and my friends have decide to have an escapade at Camiguin Island...:):):) Share your plans then! God bless us all!

heres one of the photos... - camiguin is the coolest island, nice view and good vacation spot..
i have been to camiguin a lot... last week for 4 days we are in bantayan island in cebu... it was magnificent... i can say its better than boracay.. plus its silent and lesser population gives you peace of mind... we'll go back again this ending week... at camiguin i had shoots there and printed some wonderful pictures of landscape.. i love it there as well.. good luck and have a wonderful vacation, spoil yourself on sun and relaxing water... take care^_^

Wow, I really love nature tripping.How I wish I could also visit bantayan island one of these days. About your pic at camiguin it was indeed terrific. I get even more excited. I surely spoil myself there!!!Oh by the way, Davao has nice coral reefs and its very enchanting to have diving in here..Hope you'll add this one to your lists! Goodluck and have fun to your future escapades!

I am from zamboanga City but currently working here in Davao. We've planned to climb mt. apo too however we are aleady late in preparations, one should undergo workout and must be physically fit then to be able to climb and so we decided to explore camiguin instead.But you know it's really one of my dream to reach the peak of mt. APO and I hope by all means I could realize that someday.

You're right! And us Filipinos love this thing. Going to the province and be with relatives. I just hope that we cannot forget the real reason why there is a Holy week. God Bless to you, too.

my boy friend's birthday falls on the Holy Saturday so, after work I'll be going there, we might go home to Nueva Ecija, his home town.. Because of work schedules I might have my summer escapades late May or early June.. huhuhu!

I'll go to either Puerto Galera or Pagsanjan, Laguna. It depends on my budget. For me Holy week is also a time to rest. In my line of work I get little rest, and we even work on established holidays. It's a chance to unwind and to renew my faith.

We're doing our family tradition of doing the Visita Iglesia first. It's where we visit 14 churches for the 14 Stations of the Cross. And then we're off to Laguna for the weekend.

I planned to go to Baguio since I have never been there. Things happen unexpectedly, my budget is gone before I know it. I'll just let this Holy Week thing pass. Surely this situation will make me feel the Holy Week as I am going to fast (as in fasting).

This is the first time I'll be spending the Holy Week with my family again after I changed my job. In my previous job (an external auditor), I'm usually in the office during the Holy Week (except Good Friday); especially last year because April 15 (the tax deadline) fell on Black Saturday. Thus we had to beat the extended deadline on the following monday. I didn't get to do the Visita Iglesia and the Easter Vigil because I stayed in the office overnight up to Easter Monday. Anyway, we'll do the usual reflections that we do regularly during the Holy Week. And of course, a little relaxation on the side since this year, we're having an extended vacation til Easter Monday (Araw ng Kagitingan!). Yipee!

Man! Pity me! It's sad to say that I'll be missing this year's holy week. I'm working on one of those American outsourcing firms here in Manila and they consider holy week here as regular working days in the US. Great for you though, enjoy your stay at Camiguin! Godbless!
