It's our holiday yesterday. My hubby's family joined us in our escapade to the mountains where at the foot of these mountains are vast rice fields.Yes, we had a grand time communing with nature where all you could hear are the chirping birds, the noisy cicadas, the rushing water from the mountains passing through a man-made gravitational irrigation system made for irrigating those wide rice fields.
I enjoyed the breathtaking sceneries around by taking photos. Click here, click there.... :))) It was really therapeutic! Now here I am sharing you one of the photos I took while we were leaving the place. Would you believe we came from the foot of that mountain? Yes, we stayed in a thatched cottage, found among thick trees and surrounded by lemon and coconut trees. It was an awesome whole day retreat. A wonderful way to recharge. My youngest kid aged 15 even enjoyed swimming in that gravitational irrigation. The water is so cool, crystal clear and really refreshing... :)
It was also harvest time and farmers took a pose for some stolen shots I made. They were all smiles, as if it were a treat to be photographed...:) I enjoyed doing it too! :P

The cottage/nipa hut where we spent the whole day. Party hidden from the trees around...
The crystal clear, cool water from the mountains, running through man-made irrigation canals
that will irrigate the vast rice fields down the valley.
Farmers waving their hands, shouting like kids "take a photo, pleaseeeee!!!"
This group is a lil' bit shy...camera shy....:)
