Tabing-ilog




I spent a three-day weekend with Ryan and his parents at their bahay-bakasyunan in Ithaca, New York. It was such a breathtaking and peaceful place. Their cottage is situated in the middle of the woods, where (as Ryan gladly informed me) there are black bears (which, he assured me, don't attack people, and to that I reply with a 'yeah, ryt') deer, coyotes, racoons, foxes, wolves and snakes. Thankfully, I only saw a deer, and it didn't attack us.

We spent three-days of bliss. It was like a piece of heaven on earth. There was no television, radio or internet. No disturbance from the modern technology that people seem to need so much. We entertained ourselves by reading books, playing card games, swimming in the very clear waters of the lake, and hiking.

At night, you'll fall asleep at the different sounds of life in the woods, from the chirping of the birds, to the waves of the lake, to whatever animal it was the howled in the night.

But I was never creeped out. It was like being one with nature.

Here are some of the pictures I took at the lake...


This is Ryan's Dad looking out at the lake.



The cottage where we stayed.




The breathtaking view from the cottage...



The waterfall, although there really isn't a lot of water falling 'cause of summer's heat



couldn't resist taking a picture of the sun, hidden behind the trees at the woods...
