Waking Up in Santorini (Poro Point)

Waking Up in Santorini (Poro Point)

            Last January, my mom celebrated her birthday and as a birthday treat we went to La Union, in Thunderbirds Resort. It was a spontaneous trip… unplanned but unforgettable. J

            Thunderbirds Resort has two resorts in the Philippines.  The one we went to was at La, Union. We left Quezon City at around 7:30 pm and it was a six hour drive.  We arrived at the place and we all felt sleepy so I really didn’t care where we were since I was really sleepy (plus I had to do some projects). We headed to our beds and slept…

            When I woke up, I was surprised to see the beautiful shore and the beautiful sunrise. I was invigorated by the place. When I got out of our room I saw Santorini…. ish. J I suddenly had flashbacks of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants movie. It was such a beautiful place.

We had a good breakfast in their restaurant… then my cousins came and we went around.  While staying there, I had the chance to bike around, walk a lot, and just chill. Even with loads of school work, God allowed me to enjoy the beautiful place. Thunderbirds Poro Point also have a lot of activities for guests… there are tours and they also have a casino. Since I have cousins who are minors, the Casino was off limits :D. Instead they, does not include me since I am allergic to chlorine *bummer*, swam in the pool for HOURS literally. I, on the other hand, took photos J.

I love the place and the environment. It was such a treat. Hope you get to see the place.



Here are some of my photos:
