Playing checkers with bottle caps on a flat wooden board.
I wonder what kind of stories were swap between or among those who gathered together as the players play this game. I myself love playing checkers. A few years ago, I enjoyed playing this with my PDA.
The use of bottle caps is ingenious, because when one cap is lost, you can just easily open a bottle and you get a new replacement. This is unlike using titanium rings. I wouldn’t want to use these rings with this board game of course
Rain could be fun or not, depending on what you are doing and where you are. In this case, the rains came when the 3rd graders on a field trip were walking to where the animals can be seen in a zoo. They did enjoy walking in the drizzle all right but there was this bit of worry that they will get sick.
It used to be that rains especially drizzles are something we look forward to especially when we are able to take beautiful photos like this yellow flower and this orange flower both taken from this particular field trip. I still do look forward to and welcome drizzles except when it does, MegaManila becomes one big parking lot. Ugh.
Glad my daughter didn’t get sick when it rained during this field trip.
Please take time to listen to a music video of “Kiss the Rain” by Yiruma currently one of my favorites:
I love taking photos of lights and as a sample, here is my post with photos about lights for a 2007 Photo Hunter light theme. Below are two Christmas-y lights from last year’s Christmas season:

I’d love to sit on these wooden lounge chairs anytime. I’d probably drop everything I’m doing right now and bring the family here. If only it’s that easy to do.
We love going to the beach. Having a massage is a bonus too.
Crispy pata (photos here) is an entire pig leg boiled with water and spices. After the meat has been boiled and cooked, it is deep-fried. In the photo, the crispy pata is boneless, unlike the other preparations where even the knuckles are included in the frying.
Pork leg + deep frying = artery-clogging happiness.
