Last Minute Vacation


Friday night Ryan and I were on our way home from the late showing of Transformers when we decided that it was time for us to get our toes in some sand. Since it was midnight we were limited in choices but decided to head to one of our favorite destinations; Punta Bulata. It's a white beach resort and spa just north of the town Sipalay. It takes about 2 1/2 hours (when Ryan is driving) and the drive is really beautiful once you get out of Bacolod and it's surrounding municipalities. It's filled with jungle, rice fields, sugar cane, bamboo trees and a lot of smiling faces. Nearing the end of the drive you follow the coast line up the mountains for some amazing views of the water.
We didn't end up doing too much other then our quick trip into Sipalay but it was relaxing and defiantly nice to get out of the city for the weekend. It was extremely quiet and I think for the majority of the time we were the only people other then the resort employee's. The rooms are amazing and view from the balcony in our usual room is fantastic, especially when the sun is setting over the water!

The weather was nice and so we were able to spend some time on the beach dipping into the warm water.

We were also able to capture our very first family picture since Madison joined us!

  1. Can't believe Ryan is almost smiling in your family picture! And it makes me kinda sad to see Brayden looking like a little boy instead of a toddler. Sniff.
