18Exec @ Davao 2008
It was during last year that this summer getaway was planned. And after months of waiting and planning, the day has finally arrived. Hahaha.. after all the email spamming on deciding where to go , where to stay, what to bring, what to do, how much to spend ..hmm.. … the spams were endless..
the lives of friends and acquaintances who knew of davao, were able to go to davao and who lived in davao were turned upside down due to our never ending questions and favors..ehehhehe.. talk about being FC ehehe..
to all those pips, in behalf of 18exec, i would like to say thank you for bearing with us..
hmm..how about we give a proper recognition to these people..shall we?

if naa ko nakalimtan, gomen ne..
if u have noticed, we went to davao but still ate in fast food chains that you find here in cebu..eheheheh..
well, anyways, everyone was just so excited. Who wouldn’t be? It was the first time for all of us to be in Davao
and an adventure is underway..
but before the adventure came a surprise..ahahaha..Surprise?!? Sunrise?!? familiar?hhehehehe..
A friend really got away with his trick. he got to make at least 2-3 people in the group to believe that his mother (real mother) was coming with us on the trip. ahahhaha.. some reacted with like how to deal with his mom (since we were a bunch of corny and loud funny adults where the jokes and punch lines get “corny – cornier – corniest <these words are made up. 
>” by the second and the antics go from bland to mind boggling or from attention seeking to just getting no reaction at all 
; one would definitely doubt if we were even mature enough to get to this day and age..ahahha..no wonder)
as everyone’s cameras were on standby ,ready to take the 1st picture, we arrived @ davao around 7am in the morning via cebu pacific. from the airport terminal, everyone was up and about taking pictures almost every step..eehehe.. once we were outside at the airport terminal, we took pictures with Davao’s pride -the Durian..ahhaa..and almost everyone around the airport vicinity was looking at us.. who cares anyway?
Afterwhich, we had Tuna Panga (sinugba and kinilaw) for breakfast..yum2x.. i really had fun eating the tuna
panga.. ahhaha..after all this was one of the things i was looking for..ahahaha..
Since it ws still so early in the morning and our check-in time at B.S Inn is at 1pm, we rested at MTS (Matina Town Square). We were literally sitting on a gazebo doing barely nothing. Music was just playing in the background..most pips were getting rest as much as possible (no one slept over 2 hrs the previous night..hehehe) and some were taking pictures..hahahaa..it would be very much surprising if we weren’t taking pictures at all, don’t you think?…hahahaha…this is just the way it is.
During the afternoon, after checking in, we went to the crocodile park – tribu k’mindanawan – butterfly farm.
We had our lunch by the river @ crocodile park. This area much resembles the Loboc river in Bohol minus the bangka.
The park was much of a mini zoo..Crocos and Butterfly overload for everyone!!!!
and that’s day 1 for you..whew!!!
