The Pharaoh Requests Your Presence

Welcome to our Antiquity Party!!! I wish I know how to serenade you with some music (^_^) ~ It always feels good to be transported back in time  even just for a night ~ and meet the Pharaoh or be with a Roman gladiator or have a quick chat with Julius Caesar or brush shoulders with fellow Egyptian princess and Greek warrior or share stories with Icarus and his infamous wings oh what a blast we all had  to have Romans, Greeks, Egyptians in one party!!! Must be so exciting during the ancient times =) We surely enjoyed dressing up for the party ~ "There are never enough hours  in the days of a queen,  and her nights have too many." "I will not be told where I can go  and where I cannot go!" ~ Cleopatra in xaTwa 3azīza   خطوة عزيزة  You honor us with your visit!!! ~  Thank you for coming   ~

Moalboal Seaside Getaway

One cloudy early morning, we drove down to the southwestern countryside of the island. What do you expect of me on a trip like this? Of course, nothing else ~ but take as much pictures as I can ~ I thank you God for this most amazing day,  for the leaping greenly spirits of trees,  and for the blue dream of sky  and for everything which is natural,  which is infinite,  which is yes.  ~ e.e. cummings There is one spectacle grander than the sea,  that is the sky;  there is one spectacle grander than the sky,  that is the interior of the soul.  ~ Victor Hugo I  cannot get  that beautiful afternoon  out of my head,  above me where I lay  the grass was silhouetted  against the blue of the heavens,  small clouds were rushing past  as the wind drove them  on an endless journey.  ~ Julia Lee-Booker Gray skies are just clouds ...
