The first week...at the beach!

We had left the island thursday morning, 09 of July and arrived saturday morning(10 July) at our province, Ifugao. Quite a long travel, especially the drive from Manila to Ifugao took us about 12 hours because of traffic along the way and partly passing through the mountains. Was the same amount of time from Amsterdam to Singapore which was also 12 hours. Then singapore to Manila, 3 and a half hours.

After a couple of days at home in Ifugao we packed again and off to La Union for the beach. Three of my brothers with their family came with us, and mother with the daughter of my youngest brother. With two cars, we had travelled at night and took us six hours. We had booked in at Sea Park beach resort for 4 days. Two brothers with their family only stayed for one day as the children has to go to school and one of my sister-in-law, a nurse, has to work too. During our first day, my sister and her family came down from Baguio city, about 1 and a half hour drive, and joined us for a day. They can't stay longer too because of school and work. Oh well, here are a few pictures taken:

Taken at around 7 o'clock in the morning, water temperature is really good for swimming!

My nephews and nieces are a bit afraid to go farther, just looking at Grace, Chris and hubby but later in the day, they weren't afraid anymore.
Here's me with my three sister-in-laws and the kids.

Now, i regret i haven't taken pictures with the whole family together, just snapshots here and there...

...except these one. The only brother who stayed behind with his wife and little girl. Was taken the next day when most of the company left for home.

i love these picture of my two nieces!!

After two days of lovely weather, typhoon "Isang" reached us so the third and fourth days spent inside as the winds too strong to go out.
This taken the third day infront of the restaurant of the park. A pity the picture is dark.

These our first week of our vacation, the last two weeks were spent with the family.

Thank you all so much for stopping by and hope you are all having a good week.
