North Summer Slang

As I mentioned before I will try to try photo blogging this time so my posts would liven up a little and also trying to post a little less wordy this time around. :) A different style for a change. So just enjoy the captions!

My family went to visit one of my mom's closest friend whose province is Catarman, Northern Samar and is one of the island's millionaire! They built there own resort and their family own a 20 hectare farm with poultry business and soon to open meat shop. There main business their is Copra and is earning more than a hundred thousand per month! I'm pretty sure their property is worth more than 20 million in Samar and they also have probably more than 10 million worth of properties here in Tondo. Talk about the simple rich life. :)

That's my mom and her friend Tita Cora. We rode a motor boat from Catarman, 1 hour drive from CRM airport to the docks and 15 mins boat ride to get to Laoang.

The first day was cloudy and it rained for a while. Most people here owns a motored boat so people can travel from and to Catarman. Their lodging is called Cesar's Place. Funny story it was suppose to be called Cesar's Palace but some guys from the department of tourism advertised their resort and mistook the name as Place and not palace so they changed their resort's name to Place since it was already found on travel brochures! 

Everyday we had gold priced seafoods for every meal here! I meant gold priced in Manila! Huge crabs, sugpo, and the fishes are excellent and in which you can eat only at one of those fancy restaurants. Too bad I destroyed the evidences while trying to get first dibs.

It was a cloudy afternoon. I saw blue shells here! unfortunately I didn't take much photos during this trip. :( I was too busy exploring. This photo reminds me of the opening FMV of FF8! Fitos Lusec Vinosec! ahaha, I'm not sure if I spelled the Latin words right. :) I'm no Latina.

The next day we visited their farm, we rode their own motor boat since this was located in another island. It's a 20 hectare land! See the eggs? They just pick that up and sell to the market. This place have cattles, cows, chickens, pigs and ducks! Kind of remind me of harvest moon only life and business in harvest moon's way easier.

This is Brackish water. The further part is the ocean and this photo here is a strait! Connecting the ocean and the river. Salt water is lessened then you can find fresh water much further. :) Amazing! 

By the way the photos are somewhat distorted I don't know what happened maybe because I'm downloading and it's affecting speed and quality bits of uploading. But don't upload and download speed different depending on your settings? Anyway I don't want to waste time uploading. Just check out my facebook for more shots.  And also maybe I should stick to wordy posts as this is definitely eating my time and I don't have the patience for it. This post took almost 2 hours.
