I was gone for three days and I really miss DPS..spent the weekend in Cagbalete Island..a far flung town of Quezon, Philippines..(so far that there was even no electricity!!) the boat ride was ‘adventurous’ coz there was an ongoing storm but we arrived safely..we suffered a bad weather on the first day but the sky cleared up the following morning and we were greeted with a beautiful view..hope you enjoy it as much as i did..

this is dedicated for those who are feeling the chills..(and if i can name one..for Chiwalatta who is working too hard and suffering in his misty Liverpool town..)

Now you're just trying to make us all jealous! Gorgeous scenery and blue skies Jennie! Gary will love these while he's working excessively hard. Liverpool is especially cold today, so they'll definitely help warm him up.

Beautiful Jennie, you make me miss the Philippines. While you have been basking in the sun, we have had snow here in Mt. Great Shots Jennie!

Jennie, I always love seeing what you come up with! These are wonderful, and I love the second one especially -- what a great capture. And the first one too, a really classic tropical beach that makes me want to walk in the sand and wade in the water. Thanks for sharing them!

Wow, just wow. Not only is the place stunning but you captured it brilliantly too, definitely jeulous! Love the hand holding the starfish one. Thanks

Sometimes I forget how beautiful is the earth, how astounding is a winter sky, how pure is the birth of a child, I'm watching the sunrise over silver shores, setting me free and leading the way, and I think to myself, this will be a good day

I like your pictures Jennie, and its a good day

I'm feeling the warmth from these shots Jennie, along with the warmth of your words. That's a nice looking arm holding the starfish - I wonder who??? PAUL
BTW we missed you too.
