LP - Amoy




AMOY - FRAGRANCE


Ang unang dumating sa isip ko pagkakita ko sa tema ay PERFUME. Pero wala naman akong collection ng mga bote ng perfume. Kaya naisip ko ang pwede gamitin mag gawa ng perfume - ANG BULAKLAK!

The first thing that came to my mind when i saw theme was PERFUME. But i don't have a collection of perfume bottles so i thought of one of the basic ingredients in perfumery - FLOWERS!




Ang mga bulaklak na ito ay kuha ng anak ko doon sa Sarangani Highlands, General Santos City.

These flowers were all taken at the Sarangani Highlands in General Santos City. The ones that has the nicest smell is the one inside the round jar and the one in the middle. If i am right, the one in the middle is called Sangumay. That has a very lovely scent.

I wish that all flowers smells like how they look. :)

Maligayang LP sa lahat!

TWTW & LP - Alam Mo Ba?

na ang Sarangani Highlands ay matagtagpuan sa ciudad ng General Santos?




Photobucket

Oo ang Sarangani Highlands ay matagpuan sa Purok Wal, Tambler, General Santos City. Mula sa lugar na yan, makita mo ang kadagatan ng Sarangani at ma amoy mo ang napaka presko na hangin at ang tanawin ay napaganda dahil sa ibat ibang klase ng mga halaman at bulaklak. Merong entrance fee para ka makapasok sa loob at meron itong complementary drink na iced tea although pwede ka rin mag order ng pagkain na gusto mo base sa kanilang menu book.

Ngayon ko lang nakita kung ano ang tema sa linggo na ito at pagkakita ko ang una kong naisip ay ang sarangani highlands although ang litrato na ito ay na post ko na sa blog na ito. See my related post for what i mean. :-)

Maligayang Huwebes sa lahat!

Sarangani Highlands - General Santos City

From the fish port, we were off to the Sarangani Highlands. It was one very hot day, with clear skies although black clouds were threatening. Everyone was thirsty but can't help but to be emersed in the beauty of the place.

Enjoy the pictures:













BEAUTIFUL & BREATHTAKING VIEW...
















AND COLORFUL FLOWERS...

























-- the bloggers! A remembrance pose with the owner of the place. Sarangani Highlands is a private property but open to the public. If i am not mistaken it's open from ten am until ten pm. The entrance of P50.00 includes a free drink. And that cold drink is a great welcome if you go there at high mornin.

PFDA - General Santos City


--The first stop during the tour. The famous Fish Port Complex of the Tuna Capital of the Philippines, General Santos City -




--Everyone that goes in must be in shoes, so, the group was divided. This is the "w/ shoes" group. Dimple is in there and i was with the "no-shoes group."



--- one must be in white boots and step on the disinfectant solution before entering the fishs area --




- Very big! But their are more bigger than that. -




--big fishes are carried as in carried from the fishing boat to the fish rack or fish bench inside the fresh fish hall. but that big reminder posted blares in red letters all over the the fish hall. That means "it's not allowed to place fish nor drag fish on the floor".



- one of the fishing boats -


More more fishes!

IN THE RACK...



AND IN THE GIANT ICE BOXES!
