WELCOME TO CHATEAU DU MER BEACH RESORT

If this is your first time in my site, welcome! Chateau Du Mer is a beach house and a Conference Hall. The beach house could now accommodate 10 guests, six in the main floor and four in the first floor( air conditioned room). In addition, you can now reserve your vacation dates ahead and pay the rental fees via PayPal. I hope to see you soon in Marinduque- Home of the Morions and Heart of the Philippines. The photo above was taken during our first Garden Wedding ceremony at The Chateau Du Mer Gardens. I have also posted my favorite Filipino and American dishes and recipes in this site. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own, but I have no intention on the infringement of your copyrights!

A Recent Complimentary Message from a FaceBook Friend

  • Just recently, I received a message in FB from a former resident of the UP Mens South Dorm (Narra Hall) that I am posting below. His message reminded me of the many happy years I experienced in UP from 1952 to 1958. The following photos are reminders of my pleasant memories of those years UP Mens South Dorm Association, 1954. I am in the second row, 7th from the right. In this picture, I know of two politicians. One is Luis Villafuerte (second row, second from the right) former governor and assembly man from Camarines Sur. The other one is Homobono Adaza, former governor and assembly man from Misamis Oriental. Both were law students at that time. Villafuerte's dorm room was just across the Hall from mine. If you know any one in this picture, please let me know via FaceBook or in this blog.

    Recently, I sent a Happy Birthday Greeting to GP ( a FB Friend and former resident of the UP Men's South Dorm in Diliman). The following was his response.
     
    FB Friend:
    This is so heartfelt. I couldn’t thank you enough.
    Lubos po ang aking kasiyahan na ako po ay binati ninyo. Ginagalang ko po kayo bilang isa sa orihinal na residente Ng UP South Men's Dormitory noong early 1950s na naging Mayon Residence Hall,
    at kalauna'y Narra kung saan ako sumilong Ng mahigit dalawang taon.

    Maraming Salamat. I hope all is well with You! Take Care!
    FB Friend:
    David B Katague Your version of shine is a search light. Thanks for lighting up the Narrehan path.The Earth is better off having you in it.
    In this world there are 'drains' and 'radiators.' Drains take energy away while radiators beam it out. Continue being a radiator that continuously gives out warmth and comfort.
Again, a million thanks to GP. Your words are music to my aging years. May your tribe increase.  You have made MY DAY!!!
