We had our dinner at the Isla Parilla Resort in Alabel, Sarangani. There weren't a lot of people that night. We picked our meals from the seafoods in the chiller. After dinner, we bought our stock of fruits for Manila. I took home 26 kilograms all in all, of suha, lansones and mangosteen!
The next day, we drove to Glan. We checked out the old houses which are mentioned in the DOT website. They have intricate wood designs but sadly, most if not all, have been neglected. The local government should do something about it since old houses in Mindanao are quite rare nowadays.
We then proceeded to Barangay Gumasa to check the powder-white sand beach. Yes, you read it right, powder-white sand. It could be the next Boracay if the local government plays its cards right. After a few hours of swimming, we drove back to Gen San to catch our flight back to Manila. But we passed by the provincial capitol in Alabel first to meet some officials.
Back in Gen San, we had lunch at Nadie's Chicken Restaurant. Then after fixing our check-in luggage which was all fruits, we went to the airport.

 | the whiteness of the beach is remarkble. reminds me of mantigue island in camiguin :D |
 | Bakit ka naka collared shirts sa beach? I DON'T UNDERSTAND. |
 | the sand in gumasa is finer than in mantigue. :) |
 | Glan is one of the first settlements in Sarangani. Dating back in early 20th Century. Ivan, may napapansin ako sa t-shirt mo, hahehehehehe!!! :D |
