LRV Agri-Science Farm

1/21/2011 09:38:00 PM Calabanga, camarines sur, LRV Agri Science Farm, Rates of The Village, Resort No comments

An unplanned road trip always makes us feel ecstatic. Despite drizzles and sudden rains, this January 8, 2011, Saturday afternoon still went pretty well after visiting a resort / farm somewhere in Calabanga. The resort / farm is non other than LRV Agri-Science Farm or more commonly known as a resort in San Bernardino, Calabanga. It's obviously a project of Congressman LRV from the very name itself. There's already a previous entry about this resort but we used photos from other photographers. Late last year, we have been seeing a lot of photos in our forum about the resort which made us more eagerly interested in visiting the place. We asked for feedbacks and informations from an event organizer, photographers and some locals from Calabanga for us to be ready if ever we are to invade the place.

Now, how to go to LRV Agri-Science Farm? It's approximately a 20 to 30 minute-drive (around 17 km) from Naga City town proper to the resort depending upon your speed of course.If you are familiar with Amang Hinulid of Calabanga then going there will not be a problem for you because it's almost of the same route. A jeepney from Naga to Calabanga will cost you a fare of Php 20.00 only. The towns that you'll be passing by from Naga before getting to Calabanga are: Canaman, Magaroa, and Bombon. If you drive through a lot of sharp curves before going to Calabanga then you're on the right road. Before you reach the town proper of Calabanga you'll be able to notice the road with Santan flowers on the both sides. It means you're near the intersection where you will turn left going to San Bernardino. On the opposite road (right) is the way going to the downtown area of Calabanga.

The front building houses the information center and receiving area. Two rooms on the rootop with carpeted grass on the outside. The design of the buildings is really eye-catching and unique.

The place is not yet done but the beauty is already there. We will definitely go back there after a few months and experience what the resort and farm can offer. Cheers!

Bear Hugs

1/17/2011 06:28:00 AM friendship, Gummy Bear No comments

Outdoor Temperature here in Naga: Approximately 22.8 degrees.

Yes! (No! =c ) it's Monday again. But, "four sleeps to go and it's again Friday". It makes a lot more easier to have an attitude like this towards every manic Monday right? I was really lazy this morning to wake up because of the cold weather. Just because of the cold temperature these days, I'm always reminded of my college days. I miss wearing thick knee socks with cartoon characters on it. My favorite socks before was the black one with rainbow colors on it and Buttercup of PowerPuff girls partnered with a "bonet". Wearing them even at home was a relief from the cold breeze.

While I was munching these cute gummy bears this afternoon, I got hypnotized by it's colors, couple it with nostalgia from friends who are far away from me and who are used in giving out Bear Hugs especially the ones who are in Baguio. Just like these colorful gummy bears, my friends are of different colors, different personalities.

Just another simple yet happy thought from a simple bear.

BEAR HUGS for all of you guys out there! And adding some CARE BEARS with it :D

Remember, each gummy bear is one BEAR HUG for a friend of mine... Be it "you" who is in Baguio, Manila, Emirates, California or anywhere in the world! Missing you guys!
