Novare SDG Team Building - Caliraya, Laguna - Part 1

The Novare SDG team had a team building at Caliraya, Laguna last Nov 12 and 13. The Microwarehouse BlackBerry team was very lucky to be included on this event. The head of SDG decided to include us on the cost, thank you Boss!! I heard the company gave a very generous budget this year, so they wanna go out with a bang! It took like a month to prepare this outing, from accommodation to transportation. There were 30+ people who attended the outing, excluding the ex/non-Novarians who got invited. 

The agreed meeting place was in Peninsula Court (office building) at 7am.
