My last trip was March 12, 2020. I remember the date correctly because I was in Cebu with my mother and I was scared of the impending lockdown. Last July 14, 2021, the hubby and I went out of town to Bacolod for a business trip. I was both apprehensive and excited. While I would be away from the baby boy for several days after 16 months, part of me was already missing the action.
We arrived at the city around 2 in the afternoon and checked in the hotel. FYI, we were the only guests! Imagine that! Of course, the restaurant was closed but that wasn’t my concern. I had several on my list of food to eat in Bacolod and I absolutely ticked them all. Haha!
I don’t usually shop on trips because I am never a fan of expensive clothes and shoes or accessories. Especially now with the pandemic, there is no need to dress up. So I just window shopped and ate and ate. I did get a canvas tote for 100.00 (Philippine pesos) because we were in time for the mid-year sale. The husband rewarded himself with a motorcycle helmet and then we went home. I actually have several photos, most of them food and a few scenic views but my phone is charging. I’ll just post them in a separate entry next.
This trip taught me a few things though. One, traveling is almost back to normal. Two, life is better at home and three, traveling is good if you’re loaded. Anyhow, I got to eat the food I missed, worked a bit and saw good sights. All is well.
**Another reason why I haven’t posted sooner is because my laptop won’t charge and the son’s keyboard wasn’t working. But I will make it up. Promise!
