Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years.

Carmina's Review from Oceanica Seafood Restaurant

Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina walked to Oceanica Seafood Restaurant . It is open air provided electric fan near the swimming pool area. The server handed us a menu to check what we would like to order. I had decided to try the Kung Pao Shrimp. I had to inquirer and find how much would the shrimp cost before making my final order. They still need to weigh the shrimp before giving you the actual price. Mom Violy and Tita Edna decided to order the same. The only difference Mom Violy and Carmina requested it to be mild with plain rice. I saw they carry ginger ale my favorite soda. Mom Violy wanted to try the Bohol Bee avocado ice cream.

Mom Violy's Favorite Place Bohol Bee Farm Resort

Carmina has a funny story to share. Mom Violy keeps telling Edna and Carmina the last time she went to B Factory eight years ago with her friend. Carmina had no clue what Mom Violy was talking about. 🤣 I've never heard of B Factory exist in Bohol. I just kept quiet dealing with a senior citizen.  Our last day for touring around Bohol before our flight. Mom Violy insists to go to B Factory to buy her honey. Arnel our driver said the name is  Bohol Bee Farm Resort .  Arnel drove driving for thirty minutes coming from Dao Diamond Hotel where we had stayed. Upon entering we found out Bohol Bee Farm Resort no longer has places to explore it had stopped during the pandemic. Although, they do have shops to purchase their products bring back home. Bohol Bee Farm Resort has places to dine and have desserts if you get hungry. There is also a restroom. NOT SPONSORED.
