Baybay, Leyte play

We had a chance to tag along with my husband for his work last year. He had an option not to attend this appointment because he was on mandatory leave but he chose to attend it anyway. At the same time, we can go out on a quick trip too. Mind you, it wasn't anything fancy like dining out, or going somewhere for quick sightseeing but rather just to take a sip of fresh air for me and Lil B.

We went to Baybay, Leyte. It was about a 3-hour drive from Tacloban.

Let me share a few things that we saw along the way.

The weather was a little bit gloomy but it didn't rain. I took a picture of the mountains because it looks like it snowed.

We saw a lot of a horses along the way.

My husband's appointment was in the afternoon and we left the house at 9 am. Before he attended the meeting we had lunch at a diner near the Metro mall.

After we had our lunch, we checked Google Maps for any place where Lil B and I can stand by for a couple of hours while Daddy is working. Good thing that there was a park nearby.

Baybay Veteran's Park

I was a little bit disappointed because the playground wasn't maintained. The slides were not that appealing and they could be dangerous for kids. As you can see in the first picture, Lil B just played with the stairs because at the end of the slide it was muddy. In the second picture, the other part of the slide was broken. Good thing that the slide in the middle was still in good condition.

Lil B on the other hand was a bit shy to play with the other kids there. She was just staring at the kids who slide and run. But as soon as the other kids left, she took her chance to slide. Honestly, the slide was still a bit high for her but she managed to slide alone on her first try.

snack time
My husband's appointment ended at around 3 pm. After that, we decided to have a snack with his friend who was also there for work. We decided to go to Visayas State University.

It's amazing that the ambiance and the campus were just like any UP campus. We had a snack with her daughter. We wanted her daughter and ours to see each other so they can be playmates.

After we had snack, we decided to go to their house so the kids can play more.

They even have Macopa or what they call Tambis. Lil B liked the fruit! We even asked if we can take home some so she can have some fruit to eat as her dessert.

We went home a little bit late than what we expected but at least we managed to keep lil B happy and busy for a bit.
