Relaxing Getaway

With our kind of job (call center agents), FREE TIME is a luxury and getting it is one helluva challenge. After one tough schedule swapping we were able to materialize Mar 7-8, 2012 as our FREE DAYS. We spent an overnight stay at this very nice place somewhere in Dahilayan, Bukidnon. It's  more or less a 2 hour drive from Cagayan de Oro City.

We rented this whole house for P3,000 overnight. A two storey house, made of 90% wood. The place is so nice and clean. Complete with our basic needs - kitchen, comfort/bath room, dining area, sala, bedroom, television set and even a fireplace. Yes, there's a fireplace coz believe me the place is soooo cold.

Can't help but take a pic of the surrounding. Look at that pic, everywhere is green. Looking at the window can give you liberty to look as far as you can. What a very relaxing place to stay away for a while from the noise of city life and stress at work.

In front of the house is this well. The water from it supplies the house's pool.

The pool is still empty when we arrived but after a while it was already filled with water from the well nearby.

Look at our smile, it's a picture of happiness after seeing the amazing place.

This room is upstairs. This was where we slept, yeah all 12 of us slept here. They were watching TV while this pic was taken. This was supposed to be a stolen shot but someone was cheating. LOL.

We had a short walk within the place and we can't help but pose with those flowers in the back ground. Nice flowers!.. but in front standing are thorns in different colors.

You might be wondering why I posted anything like that (refer to the words in Bold italic lines above and below) allow me to share a brief story why it's there. I was drafting this post at work and I left my computer open, my team captain TC Joey took over and typed those. I was laughing out loud after reading it. He's super kaloka. I then decided to include his additional captions to add a little bit of fun in this post. So there.

Can't stop smiling the moment I saw this group jump shot. I always like jump shot.

I was trying to capture the sunset on this pic above but this is the best that I could have. I'm loving the presence of that house in this picture... suddenly, I realized the house was actually floating.. Oh my, Ondoy is coming! (but then again my TC made his own caption that left me laughing my ass off here)

 I love to do this more often. It feels so good  to chill out once in a while especially when the place is a sanctuary of relaxation.
