Viva Cala Mesquida

Filed under: Been There,Done That — kengkay @ 2:15 hapon

Our last minute vacation, despite the flight delay, was really a very relaxing one.

For one week, we stayed only within our resort, Viva Cala Mesquida Aparthotel in Mallorca, Spain; it is after all an all-inclusive package (why not take advantage) :D Actually, we wanted to take a short trip after a few days of being stuck in our resort, but the bus leaves very early and the trip back would be too late; renting a car is void as both my husband and I didnt have our driver’s licences with us :(

Anyway, there are a lot of things to do and ‘not to do’ around the resort. You could see us in and out of the restaurant for our meals; carrying drinks and snacks from the bars into our pool lounges; swimming, relaxing and playing around the pool area; strolling around the shops and the beach area, stepping into our hotel room to take a break, dress up and sleep. Accompanying the girls to the kiddie disco every night (yes, every night!) and sometimes, watching the night shows if the kids arent too tired to stay up late.
This is how the hotel facade looks like. This is indeed, a very large complex of hotel. They even have an exclusive club which is located in front of the beach; there are always two show stages simultaneously playing different programs every night, there are more than four swimming pools ( I stopped counting at four), there are more than four restaurants, and loads of facilities and activities lined up to keep everyone from babies to adults, busy.

This is the pool area, I took this photo from the restaurant which is located a few floors up. See the ever present lifeguard in white? He’s watching over those lounge chair grabbers, hehe. It is fun to stay around the pool around as there’s water activities for both kids and adults alike. Everyday, my husband and I took part in the late morning water aerobics — before grabbing our plates for our buffet lunch.

This is the beach area, you would see the hotel compound in the background. The rent of the lounge chairs and a beach umbrella is way too much, 4.25 euro per lounge chair for a day use; and we used those things for almost 2 hours only!

That’s our view from our balcony. The beach area and the dune. Nice, noh?
The sunrise. Taken before 7 am from our hotel’s balcony.
And here are the girls, who as usual, dont want to go back home anymore :D

Erotika ang tema, kaya ko kaya ito? Hmm

Rules:

Create a short erotica of not more than 200 words, with the following words that can only be used once in the story:

1. sleepover – nakitulog
2. whip – latigo
3. handcuffs – posas
4. leather – katad
5. sexy – seksi
6. threesome – tatluhan
7. hairy – mabuhok
8. shotgun – shotgun
9. squeeze – pisil
10. explosion – pagsabog

Dala ko ang mga parborito kong laruan na latigo at posas, nakitulog ang seksing si ako sa isang kabigan na hindi ko alam e mahilig pala sa tatluhan. Papatalo ba naman ako sa aking suot na makatulo laway na katad? Kaya lang hindi ko maaruk yung isang mabuhok na type na type magpa-shotgun. Wiz ko yata maatim ang magpa-ganun, ginawa ko, pinisil pisil ko na lang sya at inantay ang kanyang pagsabog. Viva erotika!

Sino sunod magkwento, hehe!

Reservation Stress

Filed under: Done That,Expat Blahs,Girls' High — kengkay @ 10:34 umaga

Okay, okay, we’re back from our one week vacation in Mallorca, Spain. And yet, am talking about stress?

Well, let me tell you — the vacation was great. Viva Cala Mesquida Aparthotel is a kid-friendly hotel. The place of Cala Mesquida is a quiet corner of Mallorca. The service and the amenities in the hotel are wonderful and food and drinks are overflowing, the whole day and almost the whole night, too.

What really bothered me is the reservation. Nope, we are booked and confirmed at the hotel; our flight, though late, is okay. The reservation I am talking about is finding enough lounge chairs for us four around the swimming pool area.

And that is where the real stress begins. Early in the morning. One must wake up at 8 am to have the best place under the sun — complete with lounge chairs enough for the family and enough parasol so that it wont be too hot under the sun.

There are ways to reserve the lounge chairs — placing your towels over them or leaving some reading materials or any personal objects on the lounge chairs. When I realized what was happening, it made me really laugh. It’s really a race every morning! Well, I dont have a problem about that, my husband and the kids were always ready to race with them :)

But at Viva Cala Mesquida, they have rules about reserving lounge chairs. When the lifeguard comes, he would look around and leave notices on the reserved lounge chairs when it looks like they are not really occupied. In that notice, the lifeguard would give you 40 minutes to occupy your places. If the alloted time arrives and the chairs are still unoccuppied? Well, he would collect all the personal items and stack them near his corner.

Imagine the shock of some people on finding their ‘reservations’ being occupied by someone else and more shock when they have to search for their personal items? Well, you wouldnt know what to expect. Sometimes some people wouldnt even know that their things were already taken away — slow reaction — not after a few hours! And others? They would shout and rummage around, disturbing the mass of people lounging around. I dont know if someone had already went as far as reporting their loss to the police.

But we never get any notices, I am proud to brag about that. Why? Because we dont really stay away from our place unless it is time to eat or to pee :) That means, we stayed mostly in and around the pool so dont ask me why I am so brown! As for those people who reserve and leave their chairs for a long, long time? I dont know why they do that…

Rated PG Espanya Pechurs

Filed under: Ano Nga Ulit Yon?,Aruuuhh,Kwentong Kengkay,Oyropa Ko — kengkay @ 8:24 umaga

  Naks, emote na si kengkay sa beach, kitams? Nakahanap din kami ng aming sariling place in the sun. Dito sa Oyropa, nakaka stress maghanap ng place in the sun kasi kapag puno na ang mga for rent na umbrellas e ibig sabihin, manigas ka sa towels at sa ilalim ng araw. Kaya dapat maaga pa lang e larga na kayo. Kundi, sunog ang beauty mo.

Malakas ang alon nung araw na nag-beaching kami. Pero kahit na, si panganay ko e takbo agad sa dagat kasama ng tatay nya. Si bunsoy ko naman e ayaw magdagat, so andun lang sya sa buhangin sa tabi ko at naghahanap ng mga shells.

Pero dapat may konting exploring di ba? Hatak kami ni kengkoy at punta daw kami sa magkabilang dulo ng dagat. Dala ko sempre kamera ko, click lang ako ng click. Bahala na si batman… Tapos biglang sabi ni kengkoy, balikkkkk.. Naku, ano naman kaya at biglang balik daw kami? Bilissss mga paa ang naging drama, pinagtabuyan talaga kami ni kengkoy.

Kasi naman pala, dahil dito:

Opps, errm, nakikita nyo ba ang nakikita ko? Waaaa, actually, shocking boogie ako nung nakita ko yang pechur na yan. Kasi nga click lang ako ng click di ba? Nung na realize kong mga hubad na pala yung kaharap ko, biglang natigil yung click ko kasi nahiya ako. Naku ako pang may suot ang nahiya. Pero ayan pala at may stolen shot din ako… ano kaya gagawin nila sa akin kung talagang harap harapan ko silang kinodokan? Hmmm

Hubo’t hubad na po ang mga tao dun sa kabilang dulo ng beach. Hindi ko namalayan na nagiba na pala ang tanawin. As in lalaki, babae, matanda, bata — ayun, bigay todo ang kanilang sun bathing, nude bathing talaga. As in.. dito kasi sa Alemanya, medyo old fashioned pa sila. Merong sariling bathing area ang mga nudists atsaka may nakaharang talaga na trapal o kung ano pa man…

Pero dito sa Espanya, viva espanya talaga. Kakagulat po talaga. Mabuti kamo at hindi ko natutok yung kamera dun sa mga nakaupo sa buhangin, kasi talaga po namang…. imagine all the people :D

Antayan

Filed under: Dito sa Amin,Europe,Oyropa Ko — kengkay @ 11:26 umaga

 Sa totoo lang, nagsimula ang aming bakasyon ng antayan blues. As in kumbaga, sa pinagantay namin na yon, pwedeng sa Pinas na rin kami lumipad instead na dalawang oras lang na lipad papuntang Mallorca, Spain. Imagine, alas kwatro ng hapon asa airport na kami tapos umalis yung eroplano ng 12 midnight! Magbilang kayo kung gano katagal kami inamag — waaaa.

Binigyan kami ng libreng coupon para sa hotel dinner na malapit sa airport, pero dahil sa aga namin e kami din nagbayad ng drinks namin. Ang kagilas gilas lang dito, hindi talaga sila nag che-check ha. As in nag announce ng dinner para sa mga passengers nung delayed flights, sugod mga kapatid ang drama. May mga receptionists sa restaurant pero walang nagtanong kung kasali nga ba kami o saling pusa lang. Basta smile lang sila at may i find the sits. Si kengkoy pa nagtanong kung gusto nilang makita yung coupon namin, sabi naman nung receptionist, ‘no problem’. Ganun!

Tinago nga ni kengkoy yung coupon at baka daw mapadaan ulit kami sa hotel na yon habang may delayed flights e pwede ulit kaming maki kain, hehe.

Anyway, dumating kami sa Espanya ng alas dos ng madaling araw — at dumating kami sa aming hotel ng bago mag alas kwatro ng madaling araw. Ayos ang simula ng bakasyon namin ano. Kasi sempre hinatid ng paisa isa sa bawat hotel ang mga pasahero. Mabuti na lang at tulog na ang mga little kengkays.

Pagdating namin ng hotel — ayan ang pasalubong sa amin (tingnan ang pechur sa taas) — plastik bracelet, violet para sa adults at dilaw para sa mga bata. Baket daw? Kasi nga all inclusive yung aming booking di ba? Meaning kahit anong inumin at kainin, libre. Dilaw dahil ibig sabihin ang mga kids e bawal ang alcoholic drinks, naks, para namang kukuha yung dalawa ng alak at beer, hehehe. Pero kasi kanya kanyang kuha e, so pwede talagang makapuslit ang mga teen agers.

At eto nga pala ang unang napansin ko nung lumabas ako ng balcony ng aming hotel room… ang beach at  well preserved sand dunes! Ang ganda.. kuha yan ng mga alas singko ng madaling araw. Oo, gising pa rin kami. Sobrang excited ba naman e :D
