Planning to Retire Soon!

If you are planning to retire in the Philippines soon, I suggest you visit several excellent websites on pro's and cons of retiring in the Philippines. However if you want to retire in the provinces, where life is simple, standard of living cheaper, less traffic congestion and pollution, availability of fresh seafood and vegetables compared to the big cities, my island province is the place for you! If this is your first time in my site, welcome. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on the infringement of your copyrights.

Memorable Photos of Chateau Du Mer Beach Resort, 2014


Chateau Du Mer Beach House, Boac, Marinduque, Philippines

Our snowbirding year 2014 ended on May 8 that coincided with our 57th wedding anniversary. We celebrated that day on travel from Manila to Seoul, South Korea then to Seattle, WA where we check in on Immigration. Immigration check in for all US passport holders is now automatic and you no longer have to fill up the forms manually. It was a joy to check out fast and no delay at all. From Seattle we have a connecting flight to Sacramento via Alaska Airlines. It was not a bad itinerary, but the Seattle airport is a mess and 4 hours waiting time for our connection. There were several shuttle transfers from the International airport to the local concourse for national travel, and you can easily get lost if you are not familiar with Seattle International Airport. We took this itinerary because it was on SALE when we purchase our tickets last February. The shortest but expensive route would be taking Philippine Airlines from Manila to San Francisco and then to Sacramento via United Express commuter service. Anyway. this year I took hundreds of photos of our beach resort and retirement home in Boac, Marinduque. Here are some of my favorites shots this year:
