Pamilacan Island


Pamilacan Island Bohol is a small Island, part of the municipality of Baclayon.
It is between the deep sea of Bohol and Mindanao.
Polong Pamilacan or Pamilacan Island is always remembering when I was kid. I heard a lot about that place from my mother. She is from Bohol and grown up over there. She mention a lot about Pamilacan have a lot of dolphins, whales and manta which the local called it sanga or bulad sanga mean dried manta rays. Every time my mother visit the Island of Bohol she always bring bulad sanga or dried manta rays. The dried manta rays was the source of income of local and they have manta rays slaughter which known about the Island.

Pamilacan means " resting place of the Mantas" known of fishing the first source of income of the locals. I heard from local folks the name of Island derived from "pamilac or harpoon" a common fishing implement used to capture whale sharks, manta rays and dolphins. Whale hunting is the tradition handed down by the ancestor. Aside from whales, they been killing dolphins, whale shark, manta rays for generation.

Year 1997 the World Wide Fund for Nature was introduce in Pamilacan Island. The program implementing that dolphins, whale shark and manta are ban in the Philippines Government in year 2008. The whale watching integrated village help to develop the program and protect the marine mammals and promote the healthy marine environment. The Island is part of BMT also Bohol Marine Triangle a marine sanctuary on the northwest side. It's a home species of cetaceans. The large whales most often spotted are the Byrd’s whales and the sperm whales. Byrd’s whales are massive yet plankton eaters that can grow up to 15 meters. The sperm whales, the largest predator, reach up to 18 meters. The later is the prime target of whalers whole over the world.

In the present the Island is change a lot and develop. They are very bless of marine life, nice white beach and nice nature where right now they know how to taking care of it. The program is really help a lot to introduce the Pamilacan as Dolphin and Whale watcher. A great destination of tourist because of magnificent dive sites nearby which gives the diver a breathtaking view of giant gorgonians, tunicates, sponges, anemones as well as other unique marine life. Tour boating is one of the very nice activity in the Island so that you can enjoy watching how the dolphins and whales fly and dive in the ocean. Whales and many of the dolphins are most active at night and during early morning, the best time to watch them it's dawn when you can clearly see them and appreciate their antics. Trips usually begin in March until the onset of the rainy season in June or July though tours depend much on weather and sea conditions. Though you can see and watch the resident dolphins and whales in the whole year round. Plus The place is nice also for the reception of wedding it's like a virgin Island captivate your heart.

Tamiami Trail

The Tamiami Florida.
The name comes from the combination of the name of two (2) places Tampa and Miami. The reason of this unique name combination is because the Tamiami Trail, a roadway that connecting the two cities.
The Tamiami trail was built in 1920s to allow vehicles to travel
between Tampa and Miami. The bridge is the one
biggest goal and dream of the Southern Florida.
It helps to connect and develop the places like Everglades, Big Cypress , Naples , Sarasota bay. This is the longest trail road that represent how good and great are the engineers and residents here to have that bridge plan. Imagine from the Tampa to Miami along the road of that place there is a lot more nice and historical places you can stop by and amaze you to visit. One of that place is the beautiful section of Big cypress a million acres of forest that is dark, foreboding and beautiful. The sizes of trees, orchids, the elusive Florida panthers, ambush otters, hogs and deer. The Sarasota Bay has a blue waters of Bay, is one of Florida's better-off and better-looking towns, and also one of the state's leading cultural centers.The community is far less stuffy than its wealth might suggest, and downtown Sarasota is fairly lively, with cafés, bars and eateries complementing the excellent grouping of bookstores for which the place has been known. Most visitors stop by to see the Ringling estate on the town's northern edge " home of the art". Plus the beautiful barrier island beaches which is a couple of miles away across the bay.
Tamiami Trail can be the most exciting place, the wild trail road and kind of adventure I really can't forgot the time that my hubby driven the bridge trail going to Ft.Myers that was a very attractive trips across the bridge. We stop by also in a one park which have a tallest statue which caught my attention and really amaze it. I know there is a lot more about the Tamiami Trail and more nice places accross the road and more exciting attraction. My knowledge is not enough to express about that historical bridge but the important is the Southern Florida dream become true and they become successful for that project of Tamiami trail bridge.

Pattaya Thailand



LET me bring you In tour of Asia :)
Now we talk about Thailand. For a detail of the place I will say Pattaya Bangkok Thailand located on east coast of the golf of Thailand. I know now a days most men are looking for seductive and attractive entertainment. Thailand is booming now as a men paradise. Hundreds of bars, gay bars, club , strip club, massage parlors, cabarets, and go- go bars which feature beautiful transsexuals who mime to both old and modern music while dressed in glitzy costumes. These remain extremely popular with tourists.
The night life is so much extreme in this place it is crowded and noise. They said the lonely men on earth can be alive and the blood will flow fast once they will visit here in Pattaya. Thailand is known also for a class lady boy performer. For the gay nightlife scene Pattaya has Boyz Town centered round Soi Pattayaland. This noisy and popular area has many gay go-go bars and beer bars. The adjacent Sunee Plaza is similar but both quieter and more private. Gay bars can also be found in other parts of Pattaya that cater for a more mixed crowd in usually quieter settings. Jomtien Beach is another gay meeting area. Thailand is become a modernize country and competing in western to give the best entertainment. American men is the most particular wanting in there place it's because of the dazzling girls in club stripper and massage parlor. They felt like they are really experience the falling star in the men world.
Thai are known for the metaphor facial smile they will react according to the environment they belongs in short they don't have religion required or needs. More are said they are friendly and open door for the people where they are comfortable with.

About the famous and infamous attractions, Bangkok’s best feature is its intermingling of opposites. A modern world of affluence orbits around a serene traditional core. Step outside the four-star hotels into a typical Siamese village where taxi drivers knock back energy drinks and upcountry transplants grill chicken on a street side barbecue. Hop the Sky train to the glitzy shopping malls where trust-fund babies examine luxury brands as carefully as the housewives inspect produce at the open-air markets. Or appreciate the attempts at enlightenment at the city’s famous temples and doorstep shrines, or simple acts of kindness amid the urban bustle.You can jump between all of these worlds – wining and hobnobbing at a chic club, eating at a street side market, getting plucked and pummelled into something more beautiful, or sweating profusely on a long unplanned march. Bangkok is an urban connoisseur’s Fantasy come true.
