Trip to Tambobong Beach, Pangasinan

Went on an island hopping trip to snake and crocodile islands then to Tambobong Beach supposedly for a good swim.  However, we ended up just having lunch in Tambobong and sightseeing on the local community because of the heavy waves.  Then headed back to where we came from...

Dasoland, Dasol, Pangasinan, Philippines

Had a meeting at Dasoland, in Dasol, Pangasinan.  The place is about two hours drive from Calasiao, Pangasinan.  It's near Alaminos, Pangasinan.  Not too much people know about the place so you are assured of a relaxing stay and have the place almost all to yourselves. It is a project in progress kids will surely enjoy.
