It was a day which started without light. I mean, it was a day that started without electricity. I don’t know the reason why the light went out but I am sure it was out for few minutes and so, we weren’t able to start the day early.

The day was planned days ago…to go and visit Manila Zoo. Visiting that zoo was not new to me. A few years ago, I was there, mingling with the animals, yet, that time, the place wasn’t good enough, it was not yet that developed. And I haven’t got enough courage to take a picture with the snake. Hmm…I am not really afraid then. It was just a strange feeling of mine looking the snakes crawl. I thought it would be fearful to carry the snake and let them crawl to your body. I was wrong. Their skins were like of that leather bags my mom have, creeping on my skin. Thanks to my niece Kyla, I had the guts to touch it. I was shocked because she cried when she saw the elephant and the horse, maybe because of their huge sizes but we didn’t hear her say anything about the snake. Thank goodness it was an albino snake, her favorite color—yellow that made her brave enough to touch the snake. At the end of the picture taking session, I was so happy that at last, I had conquered my fears. J After the long exploration on that zoological garden, we headed our way to Malabon to eat the original Pancit Malabon. It was a meal that made us full, a yummy pancit which I missed eating for how many years. After filling our stomach, we had another session of picture taking outside the PBB house in Quezon City. Again, it wasn’t my first time to visit their, yet my first time to pose for a picture outside that yellow house.

The trip was awesome, tiring yet exciting. Of course, traffic was the one who ate our time. Nevertheless, the whole day was spent with worth, worthy to be remembered and treasured.
