Saturday, it was past midnight and I'm still scanning forums, blogs and rechecking our IT.

5:00 - My personal alarm clock (read: hubby) woke me up
6:00 - We are on our way to the airport.
6:30 - Halfway there, I called up tekeng who was still sleeping! sheesh :p
7:30 - We met and checked ourselves in and proceeded to have breakfast. hoping to start this trip right, we had a hearty breakfast at a japanese resto.

The chef took his time cooking our meal, by the time we finished, it was almost boarding time. we paid the terminal fee and proceeded to the second body/bag scanner section.

Mistake no.1: tekeng brought her umbrella, a no no for hand carry baggage. So I told her to proceed to the gate while I go pay and checkin our bags. I had to ask the cebu pacific staff to let me pay first since our plane is about to leave already. I did say sorry to those who were in line when I was allowed to do so. Photofinish, I rushed to the gate where unnie keng was waiting for me. Over the two-way radio, I heard they gave up waiting for three more passangers and that we will be the last to board.

Apparently there are two men seated in our row. The staff took notice, checked our seats and turns out the one with the baby should be sitting elsewhere. Ahh.. I know how hard it is to move when you have a baby with you but he should've have followed the seating arrangement in the first place.

9:00 - Despite everything, we were able to take off as scheduled. Plane was big enough, riding helmets not necessary ;)

10:00 - Arrival at Silay Airport. Initially we planned to ride a trike and bus to bacolod. However, since its raining, we decided to take the shuttle instead. Cost: P150 per head.

11:00 - Arrival at SM Bacolod. I'm still hesitant if we should pursue our IT due to the gloomy weather. Figured, I could think better with a full stomach.
