So Patrick has had the Hyundai Veloster for the week and this is the last day we're able to ride in it as a family. We took it for a ride to the 2017 Trans Sport Show. This post is about the day that we had - dining at Ma Mon Luk and stuff we bought while walking around SM Mall of Asia after we took a break from the Trans Sport Show.

Walking around the 2017 Trans Sport Show
23 April 2017
It's summer and it's time for another car show! This time, we went to the 2017 Trans Sport Show held between April 20-23 at the SMX Convention Center. Patrick actually covered the event for Carmudi, so if you want to see better photos of the cars, check out the article here. The Trans Sport Show's main attraction is the Nostalgic and Contemporary Car Competition but there are other events like the Moto Builds Pilipinas and plenty of automotive after-sales, custom-build services and related businesses to complete the experience.

22 April 2017
Minor plumbing problems are easy enough to fix if you have the right tools and a bit of courage. Knowing how to repair plumbing problems yourself can save you some money since you don't have to hire someone else to do it for you. I've replaced our faulty toilet fill valve on my own before and I found it to be easy enough. You actually just have to follow the instructions on the package! LOL Here's how the kids and I did it.

13 April 2017
The best outings are those that happen unexpectedly. As is the case today when we went to Eastridge Athletic Park for a day of swimming simply because my sister Sha and her family were already there! She did mention that today might be the ideal time to meet up for the summer but we never actually finalized any plans. The Eastridge Athletic Park is located within the Eastridge Golf Club development in Binangonan Rizal. We were only able to get in because we were guests of a member but we had to pay an entrance fee of P200/head (adult) and P100/head (child) which I think were reasonable enough rates. We were able to bring in food and beverage (no corkage).

07 April 2017
Another food craving for Rodic's Tapsilog yielded a surprise trip to UP Town Center. Whenever we pass by the area, Patrick always wishes to visit the new shopping destination but we've always run out of time. Today, he finally fulfilled his wish and we spent about three hours just walking around the place and visiting the shops.

02 April 2017
Occasionally, Patrick would leave us to cover a Press Conference while at the Manila International Auto Show (MIAS). We would find ourselves wandering around the Main Hall and the rest of the exhibits until he finished his work. I think the last time we attended a Press Conference as a family was for the Manila Speed Show with Marlon Stockinger. This time, we were allowed to attend Mazda's Luncheon Press Conference and what a blast we had! :)

02 April 2017
We've always gone to the annual Manila International Auto Shows. This time, it's a bit special because it's Patrick's first MIAS event that he's covering under the Carmudi group. Though the event itself goes on for four days (March 30 - April 02) at the World Trade Center, we only came with him on the last day. But still, we all were excited at seeing all these brand new cars! :)

01 April 2017
When you have a car as awesome as the Toyota 86 delivered to your home (in our case, as a test drive vehicle) what will you do? Well, of course! Take it for a spin! I remember the last time we had a Toyota 86 for a week, Patrick really did take it for a spin - drifting it at a parking lot no less! But, we're not doing that again. Instead, we just went for our favorites - Lego and great burgers at Charlie's Grind and Grill (Pasig).

18 March 2017
Dylan's birthday came bright and early. We all had a hand in choosing the activities for Dylan's birthday and everyone was just itching to get on with the plans. It was rather hard to narrow down the choices because, after all, we just wanted Dylan to have what he wants but due to time and financial constraints, naturally we had to compromise. The following post tells of what we ended up with.

Celebrating Dana's birthday at Sambokojin!! :)
03 March 2017
Today, we celebrated Dana's birthday after finishing up with Dylan's doctor's check-up. When asked what she wanted to do for her birthday, there was no hesitation when she responded, "Sambokojin!". I guess, she enjoyed herself so much the last time we were there she wanted to experience it again. So, we all went back, together with Den and Edwin!
It also helped that Sambokojin has a Birthday Treat Promo :)
