The Mount Samat (Day One Outing)

March 28, 2015 (Company Outing)

There we go another late post.

Sneak Photo (lol)

What you wanna know? It's about Mount Samat, guys!

Let me begin in some wikipedia.

Mount Samat is a historic mountain in the town of Pilar, Province of Bataan, Philippines.

Mount Samat National Shrine is near located, a national shrine dedicated to the fallen Filipino and American during World War II. 

Ask what? More? Ok, click parasitic cone. 

As early as 5:30 (call time) from Binondo, Manila we arrived late to the province of Bataan like past 10:00 AM oredi. Going there was like going to Baguio City. The road going up actually to Mount Samat is a never ending snake. Yup, vomiting and drowsing is exactly you will feel going up.

But wait, the mountain view will be your prize gift.

Let us begin the tour: (5:30AM, Binondo)

With Marissa, Cherry and Kim. (Got shadow on my face, gee!)

Don't forget to eat breakfast.

While on the bus also don't ever be afraid of selfie-ing.

I am feeling so innocent here. Haha!

And if you like to get tons of photos, be sure to get your best camera mate ok?

With Anna Jean.

I'd rather think to make nice collage that posting all the stuff, will make you bored eh?

All I can say that Anna is the non-stop camera buddy to get along with. I have oredi deleted some pictures it exploding on her camera. Lol.

After the sluggish trip, here we go Mount Samat with all the breath-taking views.

So crispy in everywhere it almost burns our skin.

Our bus.

The welcome.

Sorry blurry, McFlurry! :-P

I don't own a professional camera. I don't even have one. Maybe I am not good in taking photos yet I love doing it. Maybe some photos will appreciate my hobby?

Some nice flower. Looked like a drop bell. I dunno the name.

 Cam-whoring with the flower.

Is it marigold? Nice.

I am taking this pic on top! Actually there's a short road over there. See.

 This is where I've standing up to took the previous pic.

Even everything is humid yet the views will entice your eyes.

Very cool.

Road to heaven.

Some nice flower again.

The way going up to the big cross. Yes, walking up!

I need to burn some calories this idea is very nice.

Up and away!

Wow, the amazing cross.

Some rose. Minus Jack. Hehe.

I think editing pics made me blurry. Hahaha!

Whatever.

I promised you will catch your breath in every step you made.

This photo is really cloudy. Simply because we are on top. No edit here, promised.

 With Jane, Anna Jean and Ronald

The Mount Samat Shrine.

We are on top of the world!! I guess I've broke my ass. Lol.

At last, I have landed the top of the cross and another views to take photos.

Hiding myself to the sun.

The entrance going up (elevator) to the cross.

Yes, we will be riding an elevator to pass through the top of the cross. The elevator is inside the body of the big cross itself!

Read it for yourself.

OK.

Then we go up to the top of the cross. About 3 minutes...

It was so cool above. The breezy air will make you feel sleepy.

Wow! Did you see what I see?! It will double the fun to jump down--> of course with a rope.

Comfortably cam-whoring.

And of course before we back down or landed (lol!) more selfie-ing!

Deleted those tons of photos that exposes more of our faces. And selected the best.

Last pile of pictures. Groupie.

With Shiela, Kriz, Charm and Anna.

 Bye ya' all!

Then everyone gone.

Except us!

The elevator is loaded. We are left behind our asses.

More fun!

Soon to blog the Bataan Resort (Part Two)

You Are 12 Man!

Hmmm... Oh well, now my first child is truly a big man now I was very overwhelmed with the idea of having him 12 years of blessing. I have remembered very clear when God first brought him with me while I was in the hospital, groggy and ugly lol. The doctor didn't gave him to me on his first day of born because he will be examined due to less-sugar..sounds like that. I admit I was jobless during the pregnancy of my son. I can't buy the food I was craving and something like you abandoned good things haha! Well, it's true.

Going back to reality now that he was a grown man, I am so happy and proud that I was able to raised him like a good son sometimes he is stubborn yet I guess is normal for the period of adjustment in this age? Hmm, does your kids acting crazy too in their 12 years? I have remembered my mom told me that I was the shy type kid in this age. Lol.

Note: Sorry for the blurry images I have hard times contrasting photos.

It's your day, son!

I wish to buy cake but my son refused. So I guess J.Co Doughnut will be best. And 12 candles! Yey!

My winning bihon for long life celebration.

Ice cream and drinks.

They were all amazed lightning the 12 candles. Haha!

Ok kids, picture please. Ei, JB is still amazed. Lol.

Make your wish Kuya Alek.

I want a bike!! OK, wish granted!

Blow now, Bebegim.

Dear Son,

 I know you are 12 now. I wish you a good health and more happiness. You are in between childhood and of course being a small man. I knew sometimes I spanked you but I only wanted to disciplined you it doesn't mean that I don't love you because God the Holy knows how much I loved you until my last breath. You are the first man that I can tell giving my only life to make you feel happy no matter what. Together with you sisters, I am loving you all.

Love, Mommy

JB's 2nd Bdae Celebration

When you are celebrating your own kids birthday party, the feeling is overwhelming and fulfilling. The emotion is very warm while you are looking on how happy they were while on their big day. And of course, as a mother it's an achievement. Having your baby being healthy and beautiful is another happiness for us mothers. Now I thought mother's care is endless. Until now, I am still looking for my mom's care. Who doesn't? Applause to all mothers who take good care of their child 24/7, without limit and boundaries. Only overflowing love. Applause to all kids who loves back their kind mothers. God bless them all.

And now, I am so happy that my over loaded with cuteness daughter JB is now on her 2 years of milestone. I only wish good health and more happiness with her. And more ChuChu TV series too.

Happy Bdae, Tinker Bell ahem -- Jewel Blake!

 

Mwahh!!

Yet on your big day, we are having a hard time keeping you a good photo because you've got tantrums.

Yes, because you forgot to take a nap -- all you do was play all day long.

Thank you, Dear God for bringing 'lil JB on our lives. Kuya Alek and ate Nene was so happy being with you. Even sometimes you are so hard headed and keep spanking us. Mostly, you are so sweet and fill us with your sweet small kisses and 'lil hug.

This is the face that we kept on loving you. 

Even you're so stubborn and kept on spanking us sometimes we thought spanking you back. Lol!

 

But no, because you are our own soft love..our jewel.

 

So this is your party, and ours too!! Harharhar!
