#FamBam is always the hashtag for Gastardo Family. I started the tradition of bringing the whole family to travel anywhere in the Philippines.
For year 2018, these were our family outings:
Finally, we witnessed one festival in Luzon. The picnic with other families on the airport grounds was one of a kind experience. The hot air balloon flight and other exhibitions were worth the while.
In the morning, we joined other families in picnicking at the airport grounds.
That afternoon, we visited the Nayong Pilipino and relived the classic Filipino culture and heritage.
Our way home, made us drop by the Dambana ng Kagitingan at Mount Samat, Pilar, Bataan
It has become our tradition to visit our hometown in Anao-aon, Surigao del Norte every mid-May to visit our father's tomb and celebrate his death anniversary. This year however, we made a sidetrip to Surigao del Sur's tourist destinations.

Mar 10-11 - Anvaya Cove, Morong, Bataan
The family of my best friends, Jun and Ruth Go, spent a weekend at Anvaya Cove. They invited us for an overnight. And so we went. This resort is exclusive for members who basically owned a vacation house in the area. So for one night, we experienced being rich. |
