The boat we hired going to Isla Reta 2 last weekend went around Talicud Island. The first stop was in Mansod Wall, one of the dive sites in the island. We didn’t dive into the depth of the wall as we don’t have diving gears but my sisters, BIL, Ella and Ace had fun snorkeling…looking at the corals while I stayed in the boat to take their pictures. Here’s Ace in his snorkel. That snorkel is a cheap one that limited them to snorkel longer because water gets in the tube so he and Donald are planning to get better one when we’ll go back to the island.

I wanted to buy a photography magazine or a book but it is soooo EXPENSIVE. Instead, Ace downloaded an e-book and I had time to read it when we had no internet connection. The books are interesting and nice read but I find it hard to go through all the pages because my eyes got easily strained. I would rather have a printed copy of it than reading it from the computer monitor. With the hard copy of the book, I can easily go through it whenever I can and highlight some of the important points by marking it.

Yes, Ace has decided to sleep in our room after almost a month of sleeping in the living room. He finally missed our bed and the comfort of the foam as we’ve been sleeping in the floor with only 2 layers of comforter which are not thick enough to feel that we are like sleeping in our bed. Since December is barely 2 months to go, it’s getting colder in here. Though windows are all closed in our room during the night, it’s chilly as we woke up.

Critters time! I’m already late but I hope it is better late than never. Here’s one of the parrots in Davao Crocodile Park. In going to the park, I find the colorful parrots more interesting than the crocs.LOL. I just love the colorful feathers of the birds and they make a very nice subject in photography so we spent longer time with the parrots rather than the crocs. We are taking this photo when Ella, my niece, was complaining she’s hungry.
