Beach Tuesday : Pictures and Short Videos

Location: Hadsan Beach Resort, Lapu Lapu City, Cebu
Entrance Fee: Php 50 per person



I decided to go to a beach yesterday so Pep and Stark could once again experience the beach. Most beach resort here in Lapu-Lapu won't accept pets but luckily Hadsan didn't mind at all just as long as I'd follow them around, they said. It was a weekday so I figured there would be less to no people  = great time for my babies to play around!



I ended up not renting a cottage coz guess how much the cottage was? Php 1,800! No way, Jose!

With a towel laid out on the sand plus few biscuits on hand, we enjoyed the water for few hours. Aaaahhhh, life near the beach!

SUNSET

Ugh, Do I have to endure the beauty of sunset everyday...?



For that, I am lucky!

Even Stark loves the Sunset

Stark and Pepper ( 9 Months) + Not Quite a Sunrise

I am a morning person, I must have mentioned that many times in this blog. I love the chill of the morning air, the quietness, the sound of the rooster... all those things that mornings usually offer.



I always wake up around 5 AM. No alarms, just my body clock. I let Stark and Pepper go out and take them for a morning walk so they can do their thing. They're really good with not peeing and pooing inside the house, and I am really proud of them for that (they are inside dogs so yah.)


After that, we hang out in our rooftop for about an hour to an hour and a half.


Note: Pictures were taken last Monday but I didn't get to blog about it coz the internet was down, plus my Lola arrived from Pagadian so I was crazy busy.

The rooftop isn't done yet, you can tell because it still has metals in the middle, no tiles, etc. I had problems with the original foreman so I kicked him out but that's for another blog post.

Don't worry, Stark and Pepper won't fall ( since I don't have side railings) I am always present whenever they are playing on the rooftop, plus I trust their intelligence gene ( Golden Retrievers are known for their smartness, so yah)


It rained last Sunday night so Stark and Pepper were extra playful because of the puddle. They really are water dogs.

Starky Bear

Yay, puddle!

Pepper
"Pretend you don't see my mota, please"

Starky Barky

"But Mommy...I really,really want your flip flops!"

Not quiet a Sunrise

This gives me a heart attack whenever she does this.

Even if it is only just few pesos difference, it pays to compare prices specially if you are buying in bulk ( I bought 20 pcs of junction box ( Php 20 x 20= 200. If I bought those at New Lapu Lapu Hardware, the 20 pcs of junction box would cost me Php 480. That's Php 280 difference! Besides, they are just few stores away, so no freakin' reason not to check.



Happy Comparing guys! See you at my Wet Market Sunday post tomorrow.
