Celebrating with Fireworks

Ozamiz City 2006 Fiesta and 250 Years Cotta Anniversary





The Port road of ozamiz was jammed with a heavy traffic, unusual for the small city of ozamiz and people were watching the sky with so much delight, amazement and fun. Cars beeped their horns so loud to no avail and goet stucked in a line of vehicles. a la manila kuno. The fireworks displayed that night is said to be bigger and livelier than the one held on july 1, 2006 which kicked-off the month long celebration of the anniversary.

It was not at all too late to pick up my digicam and got a shot at the sparkling skies though, i was not standing on top of the breakwater, away from supposedly the baywalk but somehow still managed to get a good view.

Bukagan Hill's Future

Image
With the recent opening of the shoreline by-pass road or boulevard from the port of ozamiz to the southern highway (to Pagadian), the new provincial and local government should now rethink and strengthen its resolve and efforts on how to develop the decades of neglected Bukagan Hill. This historical hill used to be the beacon of hope and safety of the american-misamisnon WW2 guerilla soldiers housing two big spanish bells to warn them of the approaching japanese during the war. The newly completed boulevard or by-pass road makes it now easy to access this site by foot or vehicles to the hilltop and thus, added to the natural attractions of Bukagan Hill as potential tourism spot of Ozamiz and Misamis Occidental. It is now incumbent upon the new government to start the planning and development in motion, including the declaration of Bukahan Hill as heritage site. The access road up to the bell site should be finished, the surrounding ground of the belfry should be landscaped and fenced,...

Lala's EcoPark - The Secret Mountain Resort in Ozamiz

Image
Ever heard of Stimson Abordo? No, it's not an american name neither a foreign town. It's the new name of a certain barangay in Ozamiz City formerly the barangay of Montol. Montol as we used to recall is a scenic mountain top (or elevated barrio) of Mt. Malindang with a baguio or tagaytay-like weather condition during december months, with an elevation of 250meters above sea level. From this site, you have a panoramic view of ozamiz, panguil bay and part of lanao del norte. For decades, this tiny rural barangay hasn't gone through any modern development and expansion, but to date remains a quiet, peaceful and untouched barrio. At present, it still nestles secretly by the hillside, and enjoys the benefit of fresh air and clean environment.  For adventure and nature lovers,  this old little barangay actually serves as an attractive place to find relaxation, and have some friendly and family bonding. Any celebration or events are appropriate for the place or for a day tour visi...
