March 1st, 2003 10:27 AM #11I know a beach in nasugbu. batangas. Its about 3 hours from manila. I think its quite reasonable and they offer several activities pa. I think they have a website you can visit. Munting Buhangin Beach Camp. But be sure to make reservations as sson as now.... Then you can call them because they have an office in makati, if you have any inquiries.
The last time I went there we tried to go cove hopping by foot lang. We ended up sa dead end dahil may cave and we had to swim to get to the pther side. My dad and my titos were able to that daw and they were able to jump pa over a cliff and stuff....

March 2nd, 2003 06:17 AM #14NEVER GO NORTH THESE DAYS ..... super grabe po ang traffic due to NLEX road works... your family will just curse you!!!
I suggest south (Los Baños) as mentioned above (National Arts Center is also nice to visit if you would be in the Jamboree na or take a hike up Mt. Makiling Peak 2), caliraya lake, Hidden Valley in Alaminos Laguna, there's also one in Tiaong Quezon (forgot the name of the resort ... its beside the boundary arch ng Quezon), and Pagsanjan falls.

March 3rd, 2003 04:29 AM #16Road works from Sn. Simon Exit to Sn. Fernando Exit ng north bound lane sa ngayon...according to olive drab its a 4 month project (before June I suppose e tapos na). Sa haba ng time, malamang pati south bound lane e ganun din.
The traffic can be at least an hour (a friend recorded 1.5hrs from about the end of the viaduct up to Sn. Simon exit yun)....but rumor has it that the trafic can extend up to pulilan exit na.
I suggest these options:
Take Pulilan Exit and go via Mac Arthur Hiway crossing Calumpit-Apalit areas. On reaching Sn. Simon you can have the option on exiting it to back to the "expressway" or i-straight mo na to Sn. Fernando at dun ka na magexit to NLEX.
Warning lang, sometimes the trafic in Apalit is also unreasonable.
Option 2: Exit ka ng Sta. Rita and take the road going to Pulilan Market (meron by-pass road so you could skip the Plaridel intersection and avoid trafic). On the Pulian Market (may katapat ito na Jolibee and McDonald - its a crossing or 5 roads...one coming from Plaridel, Pulilan, Baliwag, the by-pass road you took and the hi-way by-pass going to Sn Rafael) take the road going to Sn Rafael. After about 3 or 4 km...you'll meet an intersection ng going to Candaba-Baliwag (this have a Jolibee on your left and on your right Shell gas station and there are 2 "unfinished pilars ng overpass" sa area na ito). Turn left going to candaba. A few kilometers after passing short tulay there is a road on your left that would go to Sta. Ana (Pampanga) via Sn. Luis (this is a small town of Pampanga too). If you're not too fast, you would notice a small sign board on the right side of the road for this direction. From the point that you turn left, the trip would be around 11 km at least to reach Sn. Luis.
From Sn. Luis, tawid lang kayo sa tulay and your off to Sta. Ana. This road will lead you to meet the Olongapo-Gapan hiway.
From that point, you could choose to go the Sn. Fernando Exit via Mexico town proper or to Sn. Simon Exit. If you take the right road that would lead you to Gapan (passing Sta. Ana town proper, Arayat town, Sn Isidro NE then Gapan).
All-in-all (if you don't get lost) going to Sn Fernando would be about an hour from the Sta Rita Exit with minimal trafic unless super trafic sa Sta Rita. Normally sa NLEX its about 30-45 mins from Sta Rita to Sn Fernando.
Last option, take the Sta Rita exit and go straight to Gapan and turn left at Gapan intersection and take the Olongapo-Gapan road to reach Sn. Fernando exit. This is at least 2hrs (para ka na ring na-stuck sa trafic ng NLEX).
My 2 cents.

August 25th, 2016 11:34 AM #20The best road trip is Marcos highway from Marikina to Infanta.
Later in the sierra madre mountains, you will find pine trees and a mountainous scenery comparsble to that of the US mountains. Tapos may mga bungee jumping bridge as well as katutubo from below. In Infanta, you can eat there as well as go to the beach
It's only 3 hour drive one way from Marikina one-way.
Best of all, the roads are well-maintained almost like NLEX.
Stop by at Sampaloc At the Gathering Cafe to experience real starbucks like cofee grown from Mountains of Tanay
