Bye, bye, General Santos City!

by in GenSan, Mindanao, SOCCSKSARGEN Region

FINAL POST of a series.

DAY 3.

It was a very long night of nothing but pure fun. From Sarangani Highlands to the General Santos Plaza and then to Piyesta KTV and Resto Bar, our night ended at 2am! Kuya Avel brought us back to Hotel Dolores and we finally said our goodbyes-and-see-you-soons. Once again, I’d like to thank the SOCCSKSARGEN Bloggers, especially Kuya Avel for being very accommodating and for making our first trip to SOCCSKSARGEN truly unforgettable! ‘Til we meet again!

Upon arrival at the hotel, we informed the front desk receptionist of our flight the next day so that they could arrange for a taxi that would pick us up since there aren’t much taxis in General Santos City yet, compared to Cebu and Davao. We then rushed to our room and hurriedly packed up our things for our flight to Cebu since we had to catch up with our sleep. We had to wake up as early as 7am for our 10am flight. That’s less than 5 hours of sleep.. ZzzzzZzzz

DAY 4.

On our last day in General Santos, we had breakfast in Jollibee. Weeee. After breakfast, we checked out of the hotel just in time as our taxi was already waiting outside. Travel time to the General Santos City Airport takes 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on traffic conditions.

General Santos Public Market
The General Santos City Public Market is located just beside Dolores Hotel. This is where we ate breakfast on Day 2 of our stay.

At the airport, we bought some pasalubong items. They’re mostly located on the 2nd floor of the airport. Tuna chicharon, frozen tuna, fruit preserves, fruit jams, durian candies, and several other local products can be found there.

General Santos Airport
The pre-departure area of General Santos City Airport. The airport has Wi-Fi! Amazing… Massive improvements and renovations are going on at the airport.

Our aircraft left the General Santos City Airport right on schedule! Bye, bye SOCCSKSARGEN! By leaving GenSan, I’m bringing with me photos, experiences, (mis)adventures, and memories that I will treasure forever. I can’t wait to be back. See you again, SOCCSKSARGEN!
