Would you cross the street immediately or stare at the lights longer? Taken in front of Mana Davao on Christmas night.

It’s been months since I took a photo of the sky so I have to go over my sets in flickr® and found this….straight out of the cam. This was taken during our sunrise shoot in Sta. Ana Wharf here in Davao City almost a year ago. This photo will turn one year old on the 13th to be exact.

The other weekend, we had a night out with some of my HS classmates. Our first stop is at the newly opened ZipCity, at Barangay Langub in Ma-a, Davao City. Though I tried zipline for a couple of times, I still can’t dare to try it because it was too dark and I am too aftraid so I was contented in taking their photos. It turned out that the ride isn’t that fast as that with Outland Adventure and Macahambus Adventure Park so it wasn’t that heart throbbing. If I was able to do it in Outland Adventure and Macahambus Adventure Park, I think I can do it at Zipcity.

A couple of days before the scheduled island hopping, Mindanao was under storm signal number one. It is the first time here in Davao City after 30 years. See, Davao is typhoon free but typhoon Tonyo hit Mindanao which includes Davao City. However, we only experienced the usual rainshowers everyday but seacrafts were not allowed to sail even to the nearby islands – Samal and Talicud. On Saturday, it rained and I am in doubt if the Island hopping will push thru. Since there’s no advise from the organizers that it will be postponed, we were at the drop off point in the old Sasa port early on Sunday morning. The weather over Davao City is fine with the sun shining above us but at the distance, Samal Island is covered with rain clouds. However, glad that it didn’t rain. I don’t know where did the rain clouds go but it was teeming hot while we are having our island hopping in Samal and the small islands nearby. 

This is my first time to join in this blog. Happy Sky Watch! Join the fun here.

We’re going! Ace finally decided to join his colleagues on an island hopping though I still have cough. It’s manageable, anyway so we don’t have to worry. We were really excited for this trip. Before he left for work this morning, he reminded me to prepare the gears – clean our Canon 400D, charge the batteries, clean the filters, and unload the compact flash memory cards. We’re not yet decided if we’ll bring the tripod but I’ll prepare it in case he’ll say we’ll bring it. 

While he’s at work, I also prepared our suits/clothes for tomorrow and other things that we need to bring. He’ll be home after lunch and we’ll go to the mall to shop for some groceries. Che2x wanted to go with us tomorrow but she changed her mind because it’s her first day of class for the 2nd semester on Monday and she don’t want to tire herself a day before, thus she’ll stay. 

I’m sure it will lotsa fun tomorrow and can’t wait to take photos of the sceneries. I just hope it won’t rain because it’s been raining for days now and Davao City is under storm signal number 1 two days ago. I am crossing my fingers now….I hope the weather will be fair tomorrow so we could have the best out of our trip.
