There are two seasons I love best, Christmas (who doesn’t with the abundance of gifts around hehehe!) and summer! I have always loved summer. Since I was a kid, the sunny months has always spelled fun, fun, fun for me. Whether it be enrichment classes, skill development, frolicking in the sun or just hanging out with friends, it has always been one of the prime reasons I live. Well, yah that’s exaggerated… hehehe!
This year is no different. Since last year, I’ve looked forward to March (the start of the sunny days for me). I’ve been in so much stress, in all aspects of my life that I feel I need one heck of a summer getaway. Unfortunately, the elements (time and money to name the prime suspects) aren’t too cooperative. It may be a shock to many, but my first getaway this year was marked in Tagaytay.
It was an exclusive for the girls trip. We left Manila last Friday after my “summer class” (more on that later on) which was around 10pm. It was a relatively smooth drive (thanks to my unwavering unliscensed driving skills hehehehe!). Traffic was medium to heavy, we passed by dark roads but all else was perfect! The company of 3 friends I love so dearly, all picture-addict, cool crisp air as we approached our destination and just the thrill of getting away from the hustle and bustle of Ortigaswas worth to keep my mind off snoozing and the fact that my summer kick-off destination wasn’t really a big bam!
After a comforting cup of Starbucks’ CM, a few head bobbing moments at Café Lupe and millions of clicks from our well-traveled scene capturer, we were off to hit the road again. We were bound to Cavite via the Silang – Dasmariñas – Bacoor route. It took as roughly an hour to traverse this route, considering that it was my first time to pass by this area and our low gas level.. hehehe!, and hit out “pit stop” at the beauty queen’s crib. Got to go snoozing after a few more capture the moment pics by 5am. After waking up, we spent the rest of the day, lying around and just relaxing. By 5pm, it was time for us to go back to Manila and face whatever we left behind the night before.
It was a simple relaxed getaway, just what I needed to start my summer going. I realized, it really isn’t the where that kicks off my summer vacation (it helps though), it’s the company that makes everything worth while. As for the tanning, the frolicking in the sun, the beach action, I can save that for later…
