Day 7: Long Drives + Night Market | AB-BC Trip 2023 Series

Vancouver + Richmond, BC • August 5

This is going to be a short one but still interesting dahil ang sasarap ng kinain namin nung gabi. Magpapaalam na kami sa bulubundukin ng Alberta at maghe-hello sa masasarap na pagkain ng British Columbia. Mahaba-haba nanaman ang drive ni Kenneth kaya ine-expect kong mabilis nanaman syang ma-bad mood. Almost 10 hours ang byahe from Banff to Vancouver pero hindi naman nakakainip dahil sa mountain and forest views. Sabi ni Kenneth nakakatulong din daw sa mood nya yung magagandang views. Naalala ko nanaman yung sinabi ni Mary Oliver na:

How wonderful that the universe is beautiful in so many places and in so many ways. Its intonations are our best tonics, if we would take them. For the universe is full of radiant suggestion.

Day 1: Exploring Downtown + Meeting My Blog Pal + Shoppinggg | AB-BC Trip 2023 Series

Calgary, AB • July 30

Day 2 at Calgary! This was supposed to be a chill/rest day dahil sa haba ng byahe kahapon. Ako lang talaga yung may ganap. Nung nalaman ng parents ni Kenneth na pa-Downtown ako to meet someone that I met here in the blogosphere, Jolens, gusto na rin nila sumama haha. Ihahatid lang daw nila ko then magiikot na sila sa Downtown.

Yay start na ko next month! Open lang yung free French classes nila for permanent residents so sana matagal pang ma-process yung citizenship namin. Excited na ko! Plus buti online lang din yung classes. Hihi.

Ibang Galawan

Bukod sa ang dami kong niluto today (2 dishes and 1 dessert), extra proud ako sa sarili ko dahil nag-grocery ako ng umuulan. Sobrang babaw pero ewan ko. Natuwa ako. Normally kasi, pag nakita kong umuulan, ipagpapabukas ko na lang ang paglabas. Tatamarin ako. Pero hindi ko alam kung bakit iba ngayon. Determined ako masyado na bilhin ang mga missing ingredients para sa menu of the day ko.

Life Updates | Kamikazee vs Jo Koy + Weight Gain + Books & Podcasts

1.

Sabi ni Kenneth ako daw ang bahala kung concert ng Kamikazee ang papanoorin namin next month or yung stand-up ni Jo Koy. Pareho kasi silang pupunta dito sa September. Pero nung napapagusto na ko sa Kamikazee, halata mong mas gusto nya si Jo Koy. So nagpa-poll ako (thanks pod sibs!) at eto yung result:

DAY 10

Swimming day again. Days pala kasi overnight kami this time. Commercial muna sa Papa na paglabas ko ng kwarto nasa dining table nagvi-videoke mag-isa hehe.

Mukang nag-eenjoy sa bigay kong iPad 😄

Swimming timeee again!

Sa Agdangan naman kami nag-swimming. As usual, ang sasarap nanaman ng pagkain. At as usual, wala uli akong planong mag-swimming dahil tinatamad akong magbanlaw pagkatapos. Too much effort sakin ang maligo ng 2x a day kaya din siguro ako tinatamad.

So dun sa pinuntahan naming resort, merong mga floating cottages. Ganito yung itsura:

Eto yung magandang floating cottage. Hindi kami dito dinala nung bangkero. May bayad ata.

DAY 5

Swimming time!

On our way to Atimonan

Excited akong magswimming kahit hindi naman ako magsi-swimming. Wala lang. Gusto ko lang tumambay by the beach/pool tapos kakain ng masarap pag nagutom na. Gusto ko lang yung summer vibes kasi sa Winnipeg snow pa rin ng snow that time.
