The Safe City Of Davao

Date Log: Oct 12-14

8 am - We proceeded to Butuan City Terminal for our trip to Davao City. We boarded the Bachelor Express and at around 8:50 am, the Bus departed left the terminal heading for the destination. I had a short conversation with the driver prior to departure and was told that the trip would be around 7 hours considering that we will be stopping on some terminals along the area.

As the bus rushed out from the city of Butuan, I could already see the green scenery along the side. I know its gonna be along trip but, the ride is very much comfortable and the view is very much relaxing.

The great thing is there isn't much passengers on the bus so we could freely use any available chairs on the bus.

We arrive at around 4 pm in the afternoon and were greeted by the friendly reception of the Galleria Hotel in the heart of the City. This is the second time that we have stayed in this hotel and are very much familiar with the place already. The hotel has been operating for 13 years already. It has a small swimming pool in the ground floor and a restaurant just beside the pool.

After a very restful evening, we are very much ready for our course.But of course, my day would not start without a cup of coffee.. So I woke up early and ordered brewed coffee from the restaurant. Great to start the day with some information about whats happening all around. Well, this is life, truly a working vacation. On the background is the far end of the pool. Its not that big but it's definitely great to dip in most especially if you want to work out some muscles or just plainly want to relax.

Once again the venue was in Brokenshire College Bahay Alumni Building. The building is located inside the compound of Brokenshire College. As we arrive at the site, a big streamer caught my attention....

On left is the Bahay Alumni Building where our First aid and Health Care Provider CPR course was held. A total of 53 participants joined our training and it was again another successful event so and so that the coordinator informed us that another group is ready for another round of training. Well, it looks like were going back to Davao once again......


But just before leaving the City of Davao, we visited our favorite dining place once again. The "Glamour" (eat all you crab) restaurant. It just a few meters from Galeria Hotel and all we need to do is walk to the area. It was great that there was still some tables and chairs available when we arrive considering that when we first went to the place, we were on the waiting list....

The restaurant does not offer just crab but a variety of different dishes. But of course the star of the table is my favorite dish... Just take a look at the picture below and you will find out why....


Perhaps i should do more exercise... someone told me to be careful with my blood pressure. Well, I guess I need to look for a good place to jog... Anyway, see you all on my next post as we travel to the city of Friendship... Cagayan De Oro City....
