Bought some bread at Pagsanjan Bakery.  One of their best seller are the Fuding.... taste good!




We visited the ancestral house of Don Porong Ejercito.





It was already past 12NN and we were starving...  at that time, the weather was so hot...and craving for something cold and refreshing.  Perfectly, we had lunch at the  well known Aling Taleng's Halo-Halo.  So refreshing... yummmy.....

Payback time, to replenish  the energy consumed in doing those obstacle courses.









After that heavy dinner... time to burn it out again...

At the Pool...
