from the beach back to the office ... such is reality. view of early morning makati .. and no, that fuzzy stuff isn't fog ... taken from the 19th floor of RCBC. 

took this shot when we reached the shoulder (?) before the start of the descent. see that stretch of white beach? that's where we're going! argh! bwahahaha! we had to go around that pointed hill in the left foreground. there was a stretch of dry riverbed around it. 

... and of course, you can't go to the beach and not see any shells 'di ba? ;) 

i've picked this as one of my entries (if we could have more than 1) into our little photo contest for the group that went on this trip. what clinched it was a comment by ms. pepot, "san 'to? di ko nakita 'to ha?" ;) 

when i was viewing this shot and was trying to think of a good title, all that came to mind was "bora-ish." whatcha think? 

we went island hopping, visited 2 more beaches but i only got shots from the 2nd one - the name of which escapes me now. all i know is that there's this big elephant-shaped rock near it. ;) 

'etong buhay petix, hehehe ... it's the daddy-o's just hangin' out on a lazy sunny sunday. wouldn't you want to be there too? ;) 

there's even this one shot which soo reminded me of work ... and i just had to name it ... "beaverton, oregon" of course! hahaha! 

the whole place was amazing! who would've thought that there would be a river so near the beach ... and pine trees around no less? pic title? dawson's creek. hehehehe ... ;) 

here's where we stayed ... we climbed across the mountain while a few others rode a banca with the rest of the gear. it was freakishly hot ... thought i might pass out at one time. note to self ... have a long sleep before climbing. (came straight from work before meeting up at bus station, 4:30am) 

over the weekend went with amci peeps (and guests) to anawangin, zambales for a nature hike/photo lesson. here are some of the shots that came from the trip ... ;) this is dusk1.
