Life is a Joni

I usually don't like going back into places I've been to especially if there are new places around worthy to explore. But when our team decided to spend the weekend at Mergrande Ocean Resort , I instantly gave a nod. It's been a decade anyway since my last visit with my family. Its name then was  Villa Victoria . Now I'm excited to see it again and bring back the fun I had when I was still a child. I'm quite not sure but upon seeing it, I guess the place hasn't undergone a lot of changes.

Outside the resort is the sulfuric lake, a natural sauna cave and a waterfall which requires a little trekking. But we haven't had a chance to go there. We only stayed overnight and early the next day, after eating our breakfast, we hit the road back to Davao.
