smashed up good

Last saturday, we're on the road again. It's our second visit to a state university at Nasugbu where our childhood friend is assigned as the executive director and Kainan sa Dalampasigan. This time, we were able to explore the university grounds. And had pictures on the other side of the resto. I can say that it's more fun this time around because I was game to do wacky poses unlike the previous picture-taking during which I was considerably poised.

Anyhow, here's once again a picture-post summary of the road trip which was all fun, memorable and meaningful-

Kainan Sa Dalampasigan

(1)   This is the bar section of the restaurant. The one corner I was not able to take picture of during our first time there. I took this shot while waiting for our orders to come. I find the waitress statue cute.

(2)   This was taken on the right part of the restaurant near the women's restroom. You can't see by that smile how goofy I was in the previous shots.

(3) Can you believe this is inside the women's washroom? I was surprised upon entering, it's really a very nice concept. I was able to take this shot only with my cellphone, good thing it's clear enough. My digicam is actually being used by my friends for a photo session somewhere else in the area. But this is quite enough shot for me.

St. Francis Xavier Parish Church


The last time I was here was when it's still under construction. I was a bit disappointed because I was not able to capture the whole church from outside. Because by that I need to cross the street and make the shot from there. But since time is limited, I had to content myself with a series of partial shots. And I'm thankful though because I have visited the church after so many years.

a sudden visit


Since D who's driving missed our turn, we're headed to Lian instead of the route to Balayan. We decided not to make a u-turn since we thought it'll be an adventure to try a different route back home. We're passing a vast greenfields when suddenly ate M blurted out a compound where a relative is staying pala. So we stopped to suprisingly drop by. We love the view and the surrounding is very refreshing. Of course, we had a series of shots again, fun time ulit, doing wacky poses.

Our relative was happy we dropped by. We had kamustahan to the max and never-ending questions. In a nutshell, it felt great that we made someone (a relative) happy we remembered her (though accidentally).

That day we had actually three little accidents that turned out good. First, upon exiting to the national road, our car slightly bumped a parked tricycle. Good thing was, the owner said that no damage was done. Second, we missed our turn but eventually visited a relative we haven't seen for a long time. And third, a dog suddenly crossed the road and the car hit it but not hard though since it immediately stood up after rolling at the ground.

That day was tiring but nevertheless full of laughter, meaningful conversations and meet-ups. A day that will remind me of our togetherness as friends.
