Coffee and Sunset View

Yesterday we spent Earth Day and hubby’s birthday somewhere cool and high. We hiked, napped, had picnic, the kids swam, we took photos and just relaxed. We capped off the day with snacks and coffee as we watched the sun set behind the mountains.

It was a lovely day and if we can only stretch it a bit for several more hours, we would do so. I am thankful that there was no mobile signal and I was not tempted to post photos “in the now” and just enjoyed taking photos as we enjoy the moments we shared.

The place was full of people too but we didn’t really see them most of the time because the place is huge. There were those who were on the ziplines, near the pools, in the picnic area or in their rented rooms (like we did a third of the time).

The staff told us during weekends, there are garden weddings happening at the place. It would be nice to take photos of ladies wearing Bari Jay bridesmaid dresses in the gardens though that would mean more people in the premises.

Magnificent View

It’s another long weekend for us, this being the Hari-Raya Eid-Raya Eid-ul-Adha of our Muslim brothers.

This week’s going to be busy especially with the hubby who is going to be swamped with work because of missed workdays. As it was, last night he worked late on details about the purchase of new material handling equipment.

With the kids still in bed I am filing away photos to ready this laptop for more pictures to be taken in the coming days. I am particularly drawn to this photo taken last Monday when we had a little out of town roadtrip:

There is something wonderful that we experience when we are looking at magnificent natural wonders. The little things we see as problems compare nothing to this scene.

When we went back home we definitely missed this view.
