squee trips
who's squee and why am i making a blog about him?
squee is little brown furry guy who always wanted to go around the world before he dies. im making a blog about him because i want the world to see how the world looks like... and he's my blogs macsot :)
so far he has seen 2% of the world. horaaaaaayyy!!
all of the pics you'll see in this post are taken during our trip (a year ago) around a few places in philippines.
i could make a post for each city but im too lazy to do that.
so! our first trip was in corron, its a small place in palawan and its so small that we had to ride a charter plane because normal planes cant land there (it might sink).
for those who dont know: charterplanes are small...
and they look like this
aww... isnt it cute?
im not sure but
i think charter planes are the biggest planes
that can land on an island
that's this small
yes, i know its wrong to use cameras or take pictures while your in a plane
but im sure we both know that
its only wrong if we get caught :)
i didnt get to take ALOT of pics in corron so the ones above are the only things i got.
_______________________________________________
next up was our trip to davao, the largest city in the philippines
and here we were, in the terminal waiting for our flight
oh! and there's squee, reading gossip magazines
ANGELINAS NANNY TELLS ALL!
oh look, more magazines...
after 3 hours, we finally made it and fyi: im a fraid of hights, which means flying isnt really a dream for me. remember the charter plane? yes, its really really scary riding that thing, either your hight-a-phobic or not, it made half of the passengers airsick. and thats when squee comes really handy ;)
as i said, we finally made it to davao
the home of the majestic
and not so famous
but highly endangered
the monkey eatting eagle
aka the philippine eagle
aka the largest eagle in the world
aka HARIBON!! (thats filippino for "the king of birds")
too bad we didnt get to see one
so we took a picture of this poster
just my luck, my havianas broke.
*sob*
ill miss that imported/really expensive flip flops...
a few weeks later, i moved on and bought bannana peel...
going back to my story:
we were already going around davao
and...
whoa! bald spotSSSS!
we stopped to buy *durian, a fruit thats famous in davao...
*durian= an asian fruit that smells really bad but taste oh so good.
i LOVE the color of that jeep!
just saying
and we waited
and waited...
until we arrived at the hotel.
i think squee is feeling at home right now...
TV!!!
the next day we went to this place (i forgot what its called)
its really really nice, the enviroment and... stuff
they had animals walking all over the place
specially the peacocks
they were everywhere
literally...
and then there was this huge garden with plants i cant even identify
like this one
its suppose to be a carrot but the preetyness made it more preety
i have more photos for squee trips but im having teeny tiny problems with the pics right now (its complicated).
COMMING SOON:
-more pics

cat got your balls?
sultan smiley: i know its just "ball" and not "balls" but... we wanted the title to sound a little more attractive.
From Panama to the Great Lakes, Bill Driver's done pretty well fishing over the past 50 years.
Now he's wondering if he'd have done even better with a different kind of bait.
"I never considered using a kid's basketball," Driver said. "Maybe I should have."Friday afternoon, Driver was standing on the deck of his house near 119th Street West and Central when he saw an eight-inch ball floating in Sandalwood Lake.
Noticing the ball wasn't floating normally, Driver wandered to his dock for a closer look. A catfish had its mouth stuck around the ball.
Driver hollered for his wife, Pam, to get a camera while he unrigged the sail from his nine-foot boat, wading into the lake and corralling the fish toward shore with the sail as a seine.
Several times, the flathead tried to dive, only to have the ball buoy it back to the surface.
The fish appeared to be exhausted and offered little resistance once in the shallows.
Things may have gone easier had the fish the strength to struggle.
"I just couldn't pull that ball out of its mouth," Driver said. "I was lifting up out of the water as best I could by the ball. I finally sent my wife to the house to get a knife."
Driver carefully deflated the ball. Estimated at 50 pounds, the fish swam toward the deepest part of the lake.
Driver has no plans of targeting the fish in the near future.
Instead, he'll probably continue to fish for the bass and panfish that swim within the one-acre lake.
"I guess I might try fishing with a golf ball," Driver said. "Smaller fish, smaller bait."

want a $175 burger?
The Wall Street Burger Shoppe just raised its price from $150 to assure its designation as the costliest burger in the city as determined by Pocket Change, an online newsletter about the most expensive things in New York.
"Wall Street has good days and bad days. We wanted to have the everyday burger (for $4) ... and then something special if you really have a good day on Wall Street," said co-owner Heather Tierney.
The burger, created by chef and co-owner Kevin O'Connell, seeks to justify its price with a Kobe beef patty, lots of black truffles, seared foie gras, aged Gruyere cheese, wild mushrooms and flecks of gold leaf on a brioche bun.
The eatery sells 20 or 25 per month in the fine dining room upstairs versus hundreds of $4 burgers each day at the diner counter downstairs, Tierney said.
Pocket Change previously designated the double truffle burger at Daniel Boulud's DB Bistro Moderne as the most expensive at $120, and the Burger Shoppe set out to top that.
Boulud's creation -- available only during black truffle season from December to March -- rose to $150 this past season, so the Burger Shoppe raised its price on Monday to $175.
"Our burger is not about the price," said Georgette Farkas, a Boulud spokeswoman. "If you are making something concerned only about the price, you are off in the wrong direction."
Without truffles, Boulud's burger costs $32. It has a ground sirloin patty stuffed with red wine braised short ribs.
O'Connell said the Burger Shoppe was "finding the ultimate expression of each one of the ingredients."
"The concept was like a mushroom-bacon-Swiss cheese burger, which is my favorite sort of burger," he said.
The burger comes with golden truffle mayonnaise, Belgian-style fries and a mixed greens and tomato salad. O'Connell pairs the dish with many fine wines, a lager or a toasted brown beer, or ginger ale.
