Summer Kickoff

I have fallen in love with summer! ♥

While the entire country was anticipating Pacquiao's bout with Clottey, we were on our way to what Au called the Camotes "hangover" (though I don't have the faintest idea why she used that word). So off we went, 30-45 minutes bus ride from the city to Danao, 2 hours travel by sea from Danao to Consuelo port, then 15-20 minutes land travel from the port to the resort. It wasn't so bad, considering the travel durations of my previous trips to Malapascua, Bantayan and Sumilon.

Danao Port


I wasn't really expecting too much from Camotes. I thought, it's just a nice strip of white sand beach. Sus, perte man diay kanindot sa Santiago Bay! The never-ending shoreline, the crystal clear water, the pristine white sand beach - it definitely exceeded my expectations! Talk about a wonderful surprise!

Santiago Bay



View from our room and from the front desk our resort. Lunch at Santiago Bay Resort's restaurant.



Tour de Camotes: Lake Danao, Timubo Cave and Mangodlong Rock Resort.


One of the trip's highlights, the sunset in Santiago Bay! It was just glorious!!!




And then another day in paradise.



And our island getaway wouldn't be complete without the pictorials of jump shots, tumbling shots and having-the-time-of-our-lives shots!


Now this is the way to welcome summer!

Colorblind.

Colorblind
(Overtone)

And it's not just a game
You can't throw me awayI put all I had on the line
And I give and you take
And I played the high stakes
I've won and I've lost
But, I'm fine

Hear me say I'll rise up 'til the end
Hear me say I'll stand up for my friends
And I crash to the ground
And it's just my own sound
I drop in the blink of an eyeI'm colorblind
And your milky way fight
Won't stop my delight
You keep me and lock me away
And it's dark and it's bright
It's your colorful pride that kept me here 9000 days
Hear me say I'll see the sky again
Hear me say I'll drive for you my friend
There's a noise in the crowd
But it's just my own shout
A stumble I fall and I pray

Hear you say your eyes see green again
In the end we'll lived up holding hands
Yes, we'll spark in the nightWe'll be colorblind
And these are the lives we gave
Hear me say I'll rise up 'til the end
Hear me say that I'll stand beside my friends
I won't stay on the floorI will settle the score
A stumble I fall and I pray

Hear me say it's time we stop talking
Eye to eye we see a different face
Yes we we've conquered the war
With love at the core
A stumble I fall, but I'll stay

Colorblind.


Watch Invictus - it's a very inspiring film. :)
