To USA Instead of Pinas!!

Days are running so fast..Instead of going home to Philippines, I am going instead in USA..I am having a feeling of complexity...I don't know what lies ahead in USA..but I will try to see what life offers there..Besides only God's know what's best for me!! I love Europe and I love Germany..After knowing a lot of things in Germany including its culture and tradition, language and its people, I simply fall in love with this country..


a photo during my last vacation in 2006 to my home country Philippines..This is in Sagbayan Peak, Bohol, Phils., where we stayed for some days..

Spring Green!!

It is spring time now!! Our surroundings are starting to get green again!! it is such a happy and lively feeling seeing the plants, trees and flowers to start growing again turning to green..As we were on our way to Neumarkt, I took some photos..well being a photo addict!! wink!!

Today was a very wonderful sunny Sunday!! But again the weather forecast announced that the weather in the coming days will be cold and rainy again!! Typical spring weather..I believed it is normal because trees and plants need water to start growing again!!

Please also visit my other pages for more updates for today;


we stopped by quick to take some photos of these sheeps...the owner was a little bit angry as I took some photos..I am thinking that the sheeps will run if they see us and that's probably the reason why the owner look mad!!!

fields are starting to get green again..this is in Velburg as we drove at the back road to see small towns while heading to Neumarkt..

leaves are growing now....nice to see the trees having green leaves again!!

Bye bye for now!! see you again tomorrow!!

Cherry Tree in our Garden

The cherry tree or kirsche baum in German, in our garden started to flower already. Some people might not see a cherry flower like the other blog I visited last time. The owner of the blog only thought that cherries only have something like pink flowers.

The first time I arrived here in Germany in 2003, our cherry tree is only around 2 feet tall...Now it is fully grown-up and bears already fruits since 2006.. It has very sweet fruits...sorry I was not able to have photos from the last year's fruits...I will be missing it when I will be away!!!

Have a great weekend to all!! take care!!

Remembering Cebu Sinulog!!

It just came out of my mind.. remembering Sinulog in Cebu..what is Sinulog anyway??I will upload photos tomorrow since blogger photo uploader is not up now...hope you got a great day guys..will try to visit you asap when time permits...just so so busy!! thanks for all your visits and messages here!!

The Sinulog is an annual festival held on the third Sunday of January in Cebu City, Philippines. The festival honors the child Jesus, known as the Santo Nino (second n is like nyo) patron of the city of Cebu. It is a dance ritual that commemorates the Filipino people's paghan past and their acceptance of Christianity.

The festival features a street parade with participants in bright-colored costumes dancing to the rhythm of drums, trumpets and native gongs. Smaller versions of the festival are held in various parts of the province, also to celebrate and honor the Santo Niño. There is also a "Sinulog sa Kabataan", performed by the youths of Cebu a week before the grand parade.

Recently, the festival has been promoted as a tourist attraction, with a contest featuring contingents from various parts of the country. The Sinulog Contest is usually held in the Cebu City Sports Complex..

A Wonderful World

I'm watching TV news while writing this post. The news is all about food which are getting expensive around the world. It is all about the inflation rate.. The countries which are greatly affected are especially those in the third world countries..Really a very sad situation. The news reporter also mentioned that the food compared between 2007 and 2008 have an increase of 57% in price...So bad!!!

But anyway, all I can say with all the problems around the world is that, "this is still a beautiful and wonderful world to live in!! It is just how you look and react on it!!

God bless us all!~!

a very beautiful scenery during our escapades yesterday!! Germany have really beautiful landscapes..one of the reason why I fall in love with this country..
The real beauty of nature!!! Thanks God for all the blessings and graces of nature!!

Hohenfels, Germany

after I went to Lily's house, I passed by again in St. Ullrich Church to lit some candles. Everytime I go inside this church, I always took some photos. This is a very beautiful church which was built in 1721. It is just very amazing how Germans (like me hehehehe) preserve and maintain their historical places, culture and tradition. really great!!

Wish everybody a very great weekend!!

inside the church..all paintings here were designed by the famous Asam Brothers

the canal near the Church which has a very clean clear water..some people take water here for drinking and believed that it can cure sickness.

the Grotto of Mama Mary at the back side of the Church

the view of the left side of the Church..this Forellenbach canal is really very clean and has clear water.
at the back is also a small chapel. Hohenfels is also a very peaceful and clean town.
I just love this small town.
