Weekend Getaway in Branson

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Geile Leon. All opinions are 100% mine.


Like many of you, I’ve been dreaming to travel around world. I want to go and explore the territories of France, China, Thailand, Mexico, Japan, Dubai and some other not-so-famous countries. As a kid, it’s my dream to meet new people with different color and experience the culture that they have. I thought it’s always exciting to travel.

Now that I am earning a bit from blogging and online job, I wan to live this dream. I don’t want this dream to be a dream alone. I want to start my journey and experience what it feels like to travel somewhere. Good thing, I found this weekend getaway package to experience Branson, Missouri.

This package is really perfect for those travelers who have a tight budget. With just $ 309.50 per night, you will enjoy a two-night vacation stay at Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel. Not just that, you will also receive two tickets on the Showboat Branson Belle for dinner and the show. Also, included in the package are:
  • two adult tickets to Silver Dollar City

Isn’t that exciting? You will not just stay in Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing but also you get to experience what Branson, Missouri has to offer.

Refreshed!

Summer is always hot, hot and hot! It's pretty irritating to have dry skin, sun burn and headache in this season. Because of that, after our very recent fiesta celebration, me and my relatives decided to refresh in a place that we call here, TIMOGA! Actually, Timoga is just the name of the location of the place not really the name of the exact hangout but the people here are already used to call it that way..so we will call it Timoga - period.

In there, you will be able to refresh yourself with thier different kinds and sizes of swimming pools filled with natural spring water (I'm not talking about that bottled water..LOL). Yah, the waters are so cold and cascades really from the top of the mountains through the pipes and then through the swimming pools that will surely make you forget the "truth" about summmer.

I took some pictures. Take a look.

We Call This Place, ILIGAN!



We call this place ILIGAN - The city of Majestic Waterfalls.

Iligan City is bounded on the north by the municipalities of Lugait, Manticao, Opol, and Cagayan de Oro City in Misamis Oriental, to the south by the municipalities of Baloi, Linamon and Tagoloan of Lanao del Norte, to the east by the territories of Lanao del Sur and Bukidnon, and to the west by Iligan Bay. This is also the 2nd largest city in Northern Mindanao next to Malaybalay City.

Known as the City of Majestic Waterfalls, there are around 20 waterfalls in and around Iligan. Among them is the magnificent Maria Cristina Falls, home of Mindanao's primary hydroelectric power station, and Limunsudan Falls.

Iligan is also the Industrial Center of the South. It produces hydroelectric power for the Mindanao region through the National Power Corporation (NAPOCOR), the site of the Mindanao Regional Center (MRC) housing Agus IV, VI and VII hydroelectric plants. It also houses industries like steel, tinplate, cement and flourmills. The National Steel Corporation, one of the largest steel manufacturers in the Southeast Asian region, now Global Steelworks International Incorporated was re-opened in 2003 after heavy setbacks resulting to its closure in 1999. Iligan along with it's neighboring city, Cagayan de Oro City, are the two major components for the Cagayan de Oro-Iligan Corridor, the fastest developing area in Northern Mindanao. To the west, Iligan Bay provides ferry and container ship transportation. East of the city, flat cultivated coastal land gives way to steep volcanic hills and mountains providing the waterfalls and cold springs for which the area is well known.
