DAY SEVEN (7) IT IS NOT GOODBYE GENSAN IT IS SEE YOU AGAIN! (NAWILI HA HA HA!)
SEE YOU AGAIN GENSAN! Yes, it is not goodbye, it is see you again GENSAN! I fell in Love with the fresh Tuna in GENSAN and with the people who are full of hospitality and kindness. Ma-fe- feel mo talaga na sincere sila sa pagtulong, no ifs, no buts they simply love helping and welcoming people!
One good example is my generous and wonderful ANGEL in GENSAN- ATE MELINDA "MELINS" BAYNOSA BETAIZAR, who, did not only open her heart, but also her home for me- a complete stranger! Saan ka makakakita ng ganun tao? I met her @ the CITY HALL, she's the budget officer II, and she is really very very nice, a kind of person who would go the extra mile to help and accommodate even new found friends! I hope your tribe increase ate melins! Mabuhay si ate Melins!
I Love TUNA!!! Sobra!!! I had a blast @ Kiko's Family restaurant, and @ ate Melins house! Babalik ako!!! Sa mga nagsasabing hindi safe sa Mindanao, I feel safer there than in Metro Manila! Maling mali ang akala natin lahat, safe po sa Mindanao! Kaya tara na, byahe tayo papuntang GENSAN!

DAY SIX Cannery Pinyahan Festival Float Parade
We again attended the 6:30 A.M. mass @ Poor Clare Monastery after the mass, I said goodbye to Fr. Bobby, then off we went to Cannery, there we were able to catch a glimpse of last night's Festival Queen winner.
Then we went to the Trappistine Nuns at the foot of Mt. Matutum, Polomolok, South Cotabato.
Sister Rosario is very accommodating and the Trappistine nuns like to call upon your good hearts to consider their place for your seminars, recollection, gatherings, or to just even visit them and buy their products, such as cookies, rosary, olive woods necklace from Italy, novena, mirror from Italy ( cheap @ P50 nadidikit siya sa flat surface), and a lot more! Room starts at P 450.00/ night if you are alone and as low as P 400.00/ night if you are in group. Inclusive of 5 meals: Breakfast, snacks, lunch, snacks and dinner~! You can contact her at CP# 0919-2713330. Madre po sila kay please lang wag kayo mag te text na naghahanap kayo ng textmate ha ha ha!
