You Know It's Summer When...

halo-halo is the must eat/drink of the day


barbecue stands (above), and fruits on wheels (below),
are everywhere -- day or night
 

  fine dining equals dining in a kubo (  presko na, may nature tripping pa)

and street food includes cleaning fish right by your doorsteps..

again, you know it's summer when...

you can wade in crystal clear waters

cloud watch

find the sweetest flowers in the unlikeliest places



  even in the highways and byways  

you can check out the latest native products from your friendly vendors

 have a chance to choose the biggest, zaniest floats available

and discover basketball courts mushrooming on the streets and in the mountains...

yes, summer is great for...

cara   cruz

habulan

playing in the town plaza

discovering   a  salagubang playing possum

rolling in the grass

sleeping....

..or napping 

diving or

..swimming

boating..

biking 

  motor-biking 

or just plain bonding with a friend or barkada

summer is for tradition...

of religious processions..

parades and...

flores de mayo  

 

of  planting, harvesting and drying

of weaving hats or

preparing for festive fiestas..

and best of all, 

summer is for appreciating the beauty of nature
