Dylan at the Shakey's Junior Pizza Master activity at Shakey's Espana
30 June 2018
Thanks to Augustine's Mama Daria, Dylan was treated to Shakey's Junior Pizzamaster activity and he had a great time creating his own pizza.
For P499, kids are given their very own toque and apron, their individual ingredients and materials, a glass of iced tea and a certificate for completing the activity. Also, they can either eat their pizza at the restaurant or bring it home with them.
The workshop is roughly 2 hours long. After the kids create their pizza and the staff brings these pizza to the kitchen for baking, the crew entertains the kids with games where they can also win prizes.
I can understand why they can't bring the kids to the ovens, it's just for safety consideration. :)
Anyway, we'll share the details for the rest of the post so read on! :)

Getting our new Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) birth certificates from the Sta. Mesa branch
30 May 2018
I don't remember where I heard that you can no longer use your National Statistics Office (NSO) civil registry documents since the PSA or the Phiilippine Statistics Authority will now take over. But I knew that if this were true, most government agencies will now require you to submit PSA documents and that I have to prepare for such a necessity. Here's what I did to get our new Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) birth certificates from the Sta. Mesa branch.We Attended the Live Recording of The Arts Hour on Tour (in Manila)

Attending Augustine's Birthday in Shakey's Espana
19 August 2018
It's always a treat being invited to a friend's birthday and Dylan was pretty excited to meet up with his classmates again.
The invitation was given last March when there were still classes and we immediately put the date in our calendar so we wouldn't forget.
The kids had a great time and they can't wait to see each other again when school starts. Happy Birthday Augustine! :)

Another reunion with the Paypon clan
08 April 2018
Today was the last big meet-up among the Paypon clan. We were invited to Betty's Sansrival Restaurant in Quezon City by my cousin.
It was a chance to gather the members of the clan who weren't in Calayan or who weren't able to make it to Calayan to meet up with everyone else.

Sam's 3rd birthday at Kenny Roger's Katipunan
07 April 2018
Today we celebrated Sam's 3rd birthday at Kenny Rogers Katipunan.
Despite just coming home from almost a day's travel from Calayan Island, the Paypon clan saw each other again here and it's like we aren't tired at all. I guess that's what family is all about :)
Happy birthday Sam! Thanks for the invite Sil and Sally! :)

2018 Calayan Adventure, Day 07 - Traveling back to Manila (Calayan-Claveria-Laoag-Manila)
06 April 2018
Goodbye Calayan Island! Today is our last day on the island. As early as 5AM, we were awake and having breakfast because our boat leaves at 7AM for Claveria Port.
From Claveria, we headed to Laoag where we waited for our scheduled bus ride home.
We booked the 8PM bus so that we'll all just sleep on the way home.
After around 11 hours on the bus, we arrived in Manila, safe but pretty tired. :)

2018 Calayan Adventure - Day 06 - Sagpat Family Farms and Despedida Dinner
05 April 2018
Today was dedicated to visiting our family's respective farms and properties. For my Dad who hasn't been to the island in 20 years, this was like an eye-opener. He was able to see how much the island has changed, even with just the little part that he'd seen. I guess now he isn't going to wait 20 more years for him to return :D
Then, despedida dinner... a poignant time...
