This is a very stale post.  Oppss not a post but a late sharing of experience.  I should have done this the day after the outing but there were other things on the top list that writing about the mommy and daughter bonding was put aside.

I should have entitled this post: Lakwatsa sa Kitkai but as other PU2B bloggers know, non-english posts are not allowed in blogs that work for PU2B.

One week ago – May 25, Tuesday, Dimple and I had the chance to go to Cagayan de Oro just for fun.  I took a day’s leave from work just for the reason of going out with her and at the same time sending off my boss and his wife to the airport.  After dropping them off at the airport at 9:30 am, we are all left to ourselves with a vehicle and of course with a driver.

I asked Dimple where she wants to go.  I gave her two places – SM or Kit Kai Complex and she chose the later.  So from 10 am until the time we went home at 3 pm, we were at Kitkai.

Now, i want to let the photos do the talking.  I am just too overwhelmed with something today so i can’t think much on what to blah:

~~our first stop~~
We had breakfast here.

~~ the girl and our food ~~
She’s not yet in picture mood

~~Our 2nd stop – South Philippine Union Conference ~~
The boss had some transaction inside.

The driver drives so comfortably for the boss wife that it took us 2 hours to travel from Iligan to the center of Cagayan de Oro.  It was a drag but we still had time so the boss did not complain.

~~Ma’am Betty at then entrance of the Hope Channel Building ~~

The boss wife was in the mood for picture taking which i also like, so this is one of her poses. 
The signage color and style is eye catching.

~~Real Japanese for Lunch ~~

It took us awhile to decide where to eat lunch.  After two hours of going from one end to the other in the Kit Kai complex, we become hungry.  I was craving for korean food while Dimple wanted Japanese because she’s crazy with Japanese anime stuff .  I asked her if she knew of any Jap resto in KitKai as she had the time to go out with her another “anime-crazy” bestfriend one time and she told me of this – Rai Rai Ken.  I saw one Korean  restaurant near Gaisano Mall but it was too hot to out – so we both decided that Rai Rai Ken will satisfy our cravings.

~~This is one of our orders – one that i want go back for~~

She settled for a lunch box serving while i had the beef bowl (beef with fresh egg and fried vege at the side)

After lunch, i told her that we need an hour or more to go leisurely walk around to relax our stomachs.  She was looking for this anime stuff and i was also looking out for stuff with “for sale” signs.  I also want to find the exit because i wanna see the view below and also i wanna take some sky shots.

~~ I love to see these greens in the 2nd floor ~~

~~ candid shot of the girl while talking to someone on her phone~~

~~This is a place i promised her that we are going to eat here one day ~~

My girl was in high spirits.  I cooperated with her on the things she wanna do like hopping from one book store to another and an hour before going home, we really need to find the shop where she can buy those black stuff she and her classmates are crazy about (i can’t relate) lol!  She was in good mood but not in the mood for mommy-daughter photos.  But then, she allowed me to take one because  she said, “I was very cooperative and i took time to go around with her. “

And this is the priced shot:

Not a great shot i know but i love it because it’s her and me.

I am a sucker of sky views so let me share this sky shot taken at the Bulua Terminal.  We passed by there to pick some Dunkin donuts for Cloyd’s neices and nephew:

The sky is my object yet there are so many things i can see aside from the sky. Can you see the 2 little shades over there? I wonder how it feels to shoot the sky from that spot. i guess several photos of this view because of the several visits yet i have not gone there. Maybe next time i will try.

The last time we were there (when this photo was taken) was in December 13, 2009. Me and my highschool classmates (MMA Batch 1990) met for a get together. The class president and vice president (social) arrived from Australia. So the reunion’s expenses were shouldered by them. So nice of them.

There was a total of 17 who came and if those who who got sick came we would have totalled 20. One classmate who got acne problems in highschool got a very smooth face now. She said she used best acne treatment from Malaysia. Her face got no trace of pimple or acne marks. I told her I have similar problems now and she promised to send me one soon.

A sharing of photos right out of the camera.  No alteration color and hues.

I wish they gonna stay small forever.  My baby is now almost a lady but will always be a baby in my heart.

I did not have any exciting weekend photos for the past weeks.  My activities happens during the week and the week-end is mostly spent at home. But for the last 2 Sundays, i was at work since the Doctoral class started already.

The photo shared here is of my daughter.  The two photos were taken same place, same day, and i think almost same time. hehehe.  This was taken last Sunday when they went for an afternoon swim.  She loves swimming.  And she loves to stay endless hours in the beach.  If i enjoyed being at home inside my bedroom, that’s how much she enjoys the outdoors especially the beach or any swimming activity.   I am pretty sure she had really a lot of fun because when she arrives home, she sleeps so quick.
