Santo Rosario Church is a simple but unique century old church. It is also called Our Lady of Holy Rosary Church. Compared to other old churches, it does not have grand interiors or carvings. It also does not look old which is usually how old churches appear.

Not into water sports? Then maybe Boracay ATV Adventure is for you. Driving an ATV or All-Terrain-Vehicle is just awesome. You also have the option to drive two seater dune buggies. While on the ATV adventure you can also drop by an insect farm and the ocean tower which you can see an awesome view of the Boracay Island.

Boracay Marine Walk or Reef walking is a must try attraction at Boracay Island. Nothing special to see underwater but the experience of walking underwater is very unique. At first I thought it was a waste of money, but once submerged, I really enjoyed it.

Tokyo Morning Tour

0 comments
Taking a short morning tour of Tokyo was very convenient for us since this was our last day. We had a glimpse of Tokyo even if almost all the shops were closed since it was January 1st. We were the only people in the tour so we had the whole bus for ourselves. That was great because we had the cute tour guide for ourselves. Since it was only us, she was not strict with time and we can spend extra minutes.

Short Visit to Asakusa Temple at Tokyo

0 comments
Our morning tour of Tokyo includes a short visit to Asakusa Temple. Since it was January 1st, the place was so crowded. I got to pray at several shrines. One spot is where you would put smoke on your forehead and another spot is where you throw money, which I didn't bother to ask why.

Classic Cars at Grand Prix Museum Macau

0 comments
Macau is well known for it's Formula 1 races so I googled it on the Internet. I stumbled Grand Prix Museum and base on the map it was just a few blocks away from fisherman's wharf. So we decided to walk there after looking around fisherman's wharf. Surprisingly we got lost. Apparently the museum itself is inside a building and you wouldn't see any big signs of Grand Prix Museum. After asking directions from people we finally found the correct entrance for the museum.

The Peak 3-in-1 Combo Package: Peak Tram, Sky Terrace and Madame Tussauds

0 comments
Got to travel to The Peak, Hong Kong! I remember my first time at The Peak when I was still a kid with parents, it was so cold that night. The peak is one of Hong Kong's popular city attractions. To go there  you have to ride the tram train. The train will climb a mountain in a 45 degree angle. So you really have to stay on your seat or you'll roll over the back of the train. Once on top it has various attractions. It has small shopping areas, restaurants and houses Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. The building on top is called The Peak Tower, it's very unique in shape and you can go up to the Sky Terrace where you would see an amazing 360 degrees view of Hong Kong.

Celebrities in Madame Tussauds' Wax Museum

0 comments
Got to travel to Madame Tussauds' Wax Museum! Heard about the wax museum on TV few years back. When we were buying tickets I was shocked with the price. Didn't know that Madame Tussauds' Wax Museum would be a bit pricey. One ticket costs HK$160, that's roughly 800+ pesos. But I was determined to see it so we decided to take the 3-in-1 combo package for HK$210 which includes Madame Tussauds' Wax Museum, Peak Tram and Sky Terrace.

Fisherman's Wharf, Macau

0 comments
Roman Inspired Area
Got to travel to Fisherman's Wharf, Macau! This is one of the places in Macau you couldn't miss. This is the first theme park of Macau, while walking around you wouldn't feel that you are in Macau. Some of the buildings are European inspired, some are Chinese inspired and Middle East inspired and even Roman inspired buildings. I enjoyed walking around and taking pictures of different sceneries. And it's all free. They have lots of other attractions in the area but we weren't really able to see the whole Fisherman's Wharf because we only had  a day in Macau so we had to be quick.
