Its an ordinary sunset but i love how it signals that its time to slow down.  Even the sea calmed down to give way to the grand show of the day.

So, what’s an island gal to do during summer? Well, look for another island!

This island is off Cebu,  it is actually located in Bohol, just 45 minutes away from Mactan, you’d think its part of Cebu.

Pandanon Island - Getafe, Bohol, Philippines

Found this unusual “creature” at a mountain park here in Cebu. The kids were quite amused and scared at the same time when they saw this, they thought its an ent. Ents are fictional giant tree-like forest guardians from J.R. Tolkien’s novels.
The tree is made of cement but from a distance, it looks like a real tree as if with real roots and leaves. Its a huge planter with plants on branches that appears to be part of the tree.  Also the abundance of trees around it made it looked like its really part of the forest. You can find this tree in the peaceful Cebu Mountain View Nature’s Park up in Busay Hills, Cebu City. A mere 10 minutes away from Lahug. I love this place with a great vista of the city and the sea, fresh cool air and serene environment. Bring the whole family here – the kids will surely enjoy the campsite, mini-zoo, hanging bridges and pool. While grandpa and grandma will enjoy the cool breeze in one of the cottages and swings in the area. Perfect for afternoon picnic, mom and dad will enjoy it here as well. This place is just perfect for serious contemplation or simply daydream, just make sure that the nobody is in the karaoke area.
In case you want to visit this Mountain View Park, here are the details:

I don’t get to enjoy sunsets often because I’m either driving or cramming to finish my errands. But I love the way the sun slowly tucks itself behind the hills which usually starts around 4:30pm. I love the soft shadows of the trees along the road on our way home. I love how it warms our hearts. I love that it says you’re home.
