We dropped all our planned activities for today and went straight to the city after our free breakfast at Samal Island Huts.
How to go to Davao city from Samal island:
1. take a trike to Babak wharf
2. Ride a ferry from Babak wharf to Sasa wharf
3. take a cab from Sasa wharf to anywhere you need to be at Davao city
Lachi’s
In our case, we went straight to Lachi’s for our delicious lunch. We tried their durian cheesecake and durian sansrival (Php75). Prices are affordable and food was delicious!
Then we took a trike from Lachi’s to Blugre Cafe and drank our durian coffee (Php150).
Aldevinco and Bangkerohan
Then we went to Aldevinco and Bangkerohan for our pasalubong shopping. We took a jeep from Blugre Cafe to Aldevinco. We didn’t like to buy shawls or malongs so we decided to go to Bangkerohan instead. We rode a jeep to Bangkerohan from Aldevinco. Bangkerohan is like a market so stuff are cheap. We brought all our pasalubongs (durian – Php40/kilo; durian candies – Php100/6packs) there.
Accommodation: Domicilio Lorenzo
We were all sweaty and tired after buying pasalubong from Bangkerohan. We took a cab from there to Domicilio Lorenzo. It was creepily quiet there. The place looks too homey but was like a museum too. We enjoyed the pool there too. It was raining quite hard so we asked the staff to order our dinner from Jollibee and ate in our room. We prepared our stuff for tomorrow’s check out then went to sleep.
