November 25, 2011. Going to BUDA (Bukidnon-Davao) is a great adventure for us living here in the city. We only go there for summer to cool down, but the group decided to go there for a change. Buda is the favorite destination of travelers who choose to unwind and relax from the bustling metropolis, all thanks to its cool climate and clean environment.
Our batchmate offer a place for us to stay-in, thanks to Dimples Vasquez and Chis Vazquez for accommodating us to their friends rest house just near Seagull Mountain Resort.
What cool rest house they have. The place itself is very peaceful, clean and cold.
As soon as we arrived we are all freezing. We let ourselves warm a little bit.

And at night we have our palatable dinner. Our so-called Chef of our batch Allan Armecin, grilled pork barbecue and chicken. Thanks Chef.

When it is cold freezing what will be a good activity to start so that children would enjoy their stay? Hmp, your right!!!! CAMPFIRE.

Well that makes our first night at Buda. Being in one house and hanging out together. Food was the first thing, but we got to kind of chill out and make jokes, and it was basically the whole thing, not one thing specifically that stands out for our CHILL OUT GROUP.

Buda seems strange, and non-Pinoy like. But who would think that this "foreign sounding" area, and the great scenery, would really appear in the Philippines, eh? :D
ReplyDeleteBUDA - wow, that's a new geographical slang for me, hehe...
ReplyDeleteIt's great to know that the highlands of Minda have something good to offer :)
The bonfire with mallows and hotdogs seems fun and a classic way to have camps.
ReplyDeleteI thought BUDA is a gaming acro. Looking at your photos help me to bemieve BUDA have many things to offer.
ReplyDeleteIt's a relaxing getaway from the city. I've been in Davao once, but also in the city.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is cool, having a resthouse in buda. I like this place because it's cold and relaxing =)
ReplyDeleteI lived in Davao del Norte for more than nine years and I always hear about BUDA but I didn't know that the name is a combination of Bukidnon and Davao. ^_^ My friends and relatives who have been in BUDA also said that it's cold in the place.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a lot of fun. Really great that you guys were allowed to have a campfire while you're there. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteNice pics! And you guys looked like you really had a great time. Spending time away from the city is, indeed, a good way to unwind.
ReplyDeletevacation that gives you fresh-air makes you feel fresh after :D nice place to pick..
ReplyDeleteBuda is my favorite place in Davao! :D Love the cold weather there.
ReplyDeleteAr first I though BUDA is some sort of a foreign land, yun pala combination of Bukidnon and Davao which can be found sa Pinas. It looks like a nice place and I love the camping thing that you did.
ReplyDeleteI miss Davao and Bukidnon...the rest house looks very interesting the roofing resembles that of Thai architecture... campfire always evoke a feeling and sense of community...
ReplyDeletewow. so where in mindanao is this?
ReplyDeleteWow.... it is so cool... I never tried Marshmallow that was cooked b a fire.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you guys are having so much fun! the house is really cool certainly a nice haven to enjoy and relax.
ReplyDeletewhere exactly is BUDA? Is it a place between Bukidnon and Davao?
ReplyDeleteI thought it's Buda as in Buddha. I haven't got a chance to visit this part of Cagayan though.
ReplyDeleteBUDA is a nice place. I have been there once through a bus and God the road made me dizzy,we didn't fly that's why.
ReplyDelete@Maritel Ledesma: Buda is the last barangay of Davao City before Bukidnon province.
ReplyDeleteNice place and rest house. It is always nice to have a barbeque and a camp fire with hotdogs and marshmallows!
ReplyDeletebuda, the little baguio of davao... i remembered one time when we passed there going to cagayan or bukidnon... a thick fog covered the street, that we need to stop for a while to be safe. memorable one. Yahweh bless.
ReplyDeleteEating at the campfire. Awesomeness. I learned a new word here as well. BUDA = Bukidnon Davao.
ReplyDeletewow .. i love BUDA .. been there before but did not spend the night ... i wish i could do the camp fire too ... nice experience
ReplyDeleteHaving camp fire is very exciting... I wish to bring my kids and let them experience outdoor activities.
ReplyDeleteI kinda missed having campfire with hotdogs, marshmallows and a cup of hot chocolate too. ^_^
ReplyDeleteWhen we are among family and friends, every place is like home. BUDA sounds like an exotic far-away place.
