A scoop of green tea ice cream, free if you Instagram your food at a certain ramen place.
I love the scoop and the food too.
We love going to places that are not the usual places where people flock to. In other words, we’d rather go somewhere a bit far without the crowds and we avoid the malls at all costs unless we really need to buy something important.
This same philosophy applies to the education trips that my children go to. They’ve rappelled, zip-lined, waded and bathed in waterfalls and rivers, did spelunking and even had obstacle courses.
Anyway, the husband and I went to Pinto Art Museum last May and we had a wonderful time looking at the artworks displayed there. The place, which looks like a Mission Bell place is just great and you seem to be lost in time absorbing all the visual feast that touches the heart and soul.
Here are just some of the photos I have shared online. When I say few, I mean few because I took more than 600 photos while we were there for three hours. Hah.

Here is another one, an outdoor photo.
A photo of my husband in a contemplative mood, sitting on one of the boulders that is a part of the museum itself.
There are some more photos of Pinto Art Museum in my Instagram gallery.
We went to watch a slalom/drifting competition last Sunday afternoon. The kids were excited though they did not enjoy the noise and the smell of burning rubber on concrete.
I took this photo and the son posted it in his Instagram account.
We enjoyed the lively songs being played (it seems like they are using novation launchpad at gc) while each one of the cars dragged and drifted and weaved through the course. There are spectators watching and it seems like they thoroughly enjoyed seeing these cars raced against each others’ time.
I could stay here for days, even weeks ( as long as my family is with me and we have internet connection, haha). I love the ambience of this country home .
The mosquitoes are a vicious lot and these are bigger than the ones we see flying at home.
Am sure frogs will go a-croaking when the rains come.
I wouldn’t mind these if only to have a brief respite from our neighborhood which is getting worse day after day.
Photo posted here but can’t be seen because of privacy settings.
Nope, this photo below is not fake nor it is a part of a visual reporting dossier.
These are in fact floating plastic balls in a swimming pool. Yep, photo looks fake.
These floating balls were used during a weekend family outing we had to celebrate the second birthday of the youngest member of the family.These plastic balls provided a lot of fun to the kids, who resorted to playing catch and just plain annoying other by hitting them like snowballs.
I don’t think they brought these balls back home. I think not.
