rain or shine... but mostly rain

Check! One of the items in our summer checklist is to get a chance to visit the beach. Kaya kahit Signal #1, my family, friends and I went to the very edge of Cavite!

View from the top. The sea looked calm from up here.

Wish ko lang. Guess what we were wishing for?

Kain muna. The sea looked so scary kaya we decided to do first what we do best -- eat.

Calm waters or violent seas? Guess which one we chose.

RING a bell? Crazy behavior for someone my age. But I couldn't resist. Hehehe.

Dream on. Haaay, libre ang mangarap. The white beachfront villas were used in several local films years ago. The colorful ones remind me of a GK Vill na super high-end. Really really pretty.


Nice digs. We thanked our lucky stars that we got the amazing villa for a minimal fee, courtesy of Tita Jessie.


Huli ka! Bloggers aim... fire!


At dusk. Couldn't resist taking a picture of the pool right outside our door.

So grill me. Gladys prepared teriyaki beef, chicken, pork. Plus carrots and zucchini marinated in olive oil and thyme. And then there's corn, of course. Yummy.



Melrose Place. Each villa cluster has its own pool. Ang sosyal.



Another kind of swimming. Ang paglangoy indoors. Natapos ang tournament around 2 a.m. na.

End of the road. Sa dulo ng mga villas, there's a bridge -- a shortcut papunta sa beach area. Nice. And convenient.



Fresh water, meet saltwater. Pag nasa tulay ka na, a look at your right shows the freshwater coming from the mountains (picture on the left). A look at your left naman shows where the river meets the sea (picture on the right). Ang cool,noh?


Here comes the sun... not really. We thought hindi na lalabas ang araw kaya most of us didn't put on any sunblock. Pero nag-hello ang sun for about 20 minutes! Namula tuloy kami.




Kunwari nasa ibang bansa. Loved the look of the villas. Picture-taking galore before heading home.



Authentic Italian Pizza. Baked from a stone oven. So yummy EeYaKin brought two big ones back to Manila!
