The weather here in our country is very hot. I can't even stop drinking cold water and other cold beverages; the fan everywhere in our room is always open every day because of this hot weather, causing the electric bill to be paid at a higher price.
Every time I saw some people's social media posts about their trip to the beach, it made me envy them and always say, "Sana ol" (hope all) and want to go swimming too; however, due to the hot weather, we became too lazy to travel. But yesterday is different because last week, the mother of my sister's boyfriend invited us to join their family bonding at the beach.
My sister and her boyfriend decided to attend. They also asked me if I would like to go too, and I didn't have a choice but to go since their furbabies would also go with them, and I also thought of my furbaby. I want him to experience walking on the beach and swimming in sea water for the first time. So I prepared all the things that I needed and packed them in my one bag, and when we woke up at 3 a.m. in the morning, I helped them cook some food as our share of the outing.
We start to travel around 5 a.m. in the morning. Since my sister's boyfriend has his own vehicle to drive, we were able to bring their 3 puppies and our 3 adult Shih Tzu (including my fur baby). I thought we were just three in one vehicle, but I was shocked when I saw my sister's boyfriend's cousin, his mother, and their lolo (grandpa) too waiting outside.
It's fine with me, though; I am an introverted person and shy. I don't know what to do. But I am relieved when they are not talking with me and I can spend the whole ride going to sleep.
And when I woke up, the sun was already waving at me. But the color is scaring me.
Anyway, the beach that we visited yesterday is Tondaligan Beach in Bonuan, Dagupan City, Pangasinan. It's not that far from our area, and we arrived there around 7 a.m.
When we arrived there yesterday, there were some people already there. When I roam my eyes around, some of them are starting to swim in the beach, some of them are doing exercise like riding bicycles, and there are some people that are running, or should I say, jogging? Some are sitting in the sand and enjoying the view. There are also some people beside us who had a tent, and based on my observation, they stayed overnight here.
After I roamed, it was also time for us to eat breakfast. I wanted to take some more pictures, but I was too shy to do it since I was not with my family but just the family of my sister's boyfriend.
The whole morning, I just stayed in the cottage, roaming my eyes around people. It's still too hot to swim during that time, so I just stayed in the place where I was sitting from when we arrived until after lunch.
And here's Mommy Cheche enjoying her time to watch the birds looking for their food. Then, we decided to walk them and try to see if they like to swim in the seawater, just like what I always watched in TikTok, but the other two adult dogs didn't want to go with us, and they just wanted to sleep,
After I walked them, I returned them back to the cottage, and my sister and I decided to go for a short walk.
It's supposed to be a short walk, but we decided to take some pictures together to send them to our mother, of course. It's a good thing that there are no people in the spot where we took some pictures (I decided not to upload more pictures with my sister because I wanted to respect her privacy).
Anyway, I decided to play with the waves and enjoyed it as if I were still a kid.
And since I'm wet already, I decided to remove my shirt. Actually, it was my sister's idea because she wanted to take me a picture. But I am shy to do so, as I am not that confident with my body. She told me that "it's okay" and "we are at the beach. So what do they expect you to wear? A pajama?"
So, the first picture that she took is after I removed my shirt from the back of this thing. At first, I was shy to pose, but after this one, we decided to go near the sea water again.
There are some people looking at me, and I am too shy to take a picture while sitting and pose for some sexy shots. So I decided to stand until the people walking by in front of us are gone. Lol
Since there are a few people in our spots, I don't mind them and just think as if I have my own world since I think they don't like to go in the other spots yet. I told my sister to click it when the sea waves come in my back. I will be the one to do my own pose, and she should make sure to click it right.
So here are some of the example shots:
There are a lot of pictures, but I don't like to upload them all here. I am shy! Hehe
After those pictorial emes, we decided to go back in the cottage and check our fur babies. Then I left my phone in my bag and decided to swim with my sister, where her boyfriend and his cousins were.
So there are no more photos to upload until we decide to go home around 4 p.m. because we're scared that we might experience long traffic while going home, but it's a good thing that we didn't and we all arrived safe in our home.
I am very thankful to my sister's boyfriend's family because they invited me to join them on their family outing to the beach. My depression and stressful days were cured by the saltwater of the sea. So far, I am okay now but my whole body is still aching because of the spank of the sea waves yesterday. (Mapanaket eh!)
Anyway, this is all for today. This was supposed to be written last night, but I fell asleep early because of tiredness. Thanks for reading!
