Countries Visited

This is one of the colours of life. We went to 3 different countries last April and we visited some of the known tourist spots. It was an enjoyable moment for us with some friends and took some pictures around the city. We’ve been to Singapore and stayed in their huge and beautiful airport, then in Kulala Lumpur where we visited the twin tower, heading to Hatyai, Songkhla, Thailand. It was a memorable trip and we had a smooth travel from one country to another.

The Fantastic Place

These are the places I’ve been last year. The first picture is near our city. It has a small pond for people to look and relax while waiting for others. It is a kind of pond with a school of fish inside. I guess, most of you would agree. It gives us a feeling of freshness overlooking the pieces of fish swimming back and forth.

The next picture is a place where my mother grew up. When she was a kid she used to stay in this place. This is a small boat used in the area when they travel from one island to another. I was able to experience riding here with my sisters and brother. It’s cool coming to this place.

Singing Contest Judge

I was one of the judges in a singing contest together with my best friend in college and another teacher in the public school last time and we had the opportunity to roam around and see the beauty of the school. The school earned an award with flying colors during the contests held in the region. Many principals are coming and enjoy the place. Seeing the school with your own naked eye could bring you to a realization that you can do better if given a chance and can enjoy what you’re doing.

I love the place, I enjoy talking with the people especially the principal and the teachers. They are the best inspiration for the children learning in the school. One thing is that, the principal of the school was the one taking pictures of us because everyone seems busy and no one could give us a shot, so when the principal saw us she gladly volunteered to take us some photos taken. She’s retiring soon but she’s still loved and enjoyed our company.

The Beauty of the Department Stores

We went to Robinson’s place last time and I saw many changes around the place. I could not help but take some pictures in order to share here. I really enjoy taking pictures and blog for it sometimes. How I wish I could have enough time to blog. Nevertheless, I could still gab some minutes to share something.

Robinson’s is one of the places that our kiddos love to visit especially if we have spare time. It’s a good place to hang on and just roam around and feel the place. A good place to enjoy seeing the shows and other activities.

Sky Watch 3

The sky is blue but not clear, it might be that the rain is coming and wanted to bless the farmers. These were the pictures that we’ve got when we visited Phuket for the first time this year. We also celebrated my birthday there with our friends. The place is cool, tourists are coming every now and then to feel the warmth of the place. It is near the seashore although quite small but it’s one of the tourists’ spots. We’re also excited on our way going there.

However, many lost their loved ones when “tsunami” came and destroyed the place especially near the seashore. Others did some renovations and changed the place to make it attractive to people once again. Sad to say, we were not able to visit other places due to our hectic schedule. Hopefully next time, though.

More views with Sky Watch Friday.

A Cave Trip

Holidays are fun, sometimes. It’s a 3-day holiday in Thailand. Many stayed at home and relaxed. It’s good that we have friends around, they invited us to go with them in a cave. Maybe around 1 1/2 hours away form our place. They brought us to a solitary place. Then we divided into 2 groups because we can’t go inside together. There is only one boat available and 6 persons are only allowed to get inside the boat. So we decided to stay.

When it’s our turn to ride on a boat, we enjoyed at first. But when we get inside, whewww, it’s so dark and gloomy. It’s good that our guide brought a flashlight. We saw bats, (you could see in the picture) and we usually lie down while passing the way inside the cave because there were long and dangerous obstacles along the way. It’s a kind of stone and very painful when it hits your body.

It was so dark inside the cave, I guess there’s no way out. If you are trapped, you can’t get out so easily. My hubby asked my friend about it. Then she said, one time is enough in going inside, I will not do it again, then I answered right away, me too, I won’t get inside the cave again.

But I guess, archaeologist loved the place. It’s so amazing!

After the cave adventure we went to a hotspring, maybe 30 meters away from the cave. There were a lot of monkeys because it’s beside the mountain. There is also a green hotspring and all of us tried to wash our face with the hot water from the hotspring. It’s so hot but when it touches your face, it’s cool and we feel fresh.

It’s nice to be there once in a while just to relax and enjoy the beauty of creation.
