#721 - Ilocos Sur Sea shots.

Good evening fellow Hivers. It's my day off tonight and didn't have much to do all day. I just assisted the wife is folding the laundry we did a day before. Then cooked breakfast this morning for my son who went to have a Christmas party with his fellow students. Then at noon time I accompanied the wife to the market to buy rice cakes which she brought to their Christmas party also in the afternoon at work. Since it's a Friday my mother in law cooked mungo or mung beans which is being cooked most of the time during Friday's and I don't know why they do it here in the metro but in the province we cook it any days of the week.😆

For our daily shots let me share some photos taken in the black sand beach of Ilocos sur. It was late afternoon that we went here and it was already past four but there is still enough time to enjoy while the sun hasn't set yet. There were other people there too enjoying the sunset who are mostly locals. We could see here several kids fooling around and they asked me to take their photo while they are doing their thing. I was like them once, carefree with my friends going places and doing foolish stuff😆.

Here we could see the vast land area covered with black sands and the people sitting on it while having a good time during this sunset. There is also a wheel track from a vehicle but couldn't find it on the shore except those that were parked on the road.

That's the parking area along the road, it's about a hundred meters from where the water is. That's my old work horse right there in white. In front is a couple riding their yellow motorcycle. They came here to check on the sunset maybe.

Not far from the right side is a vendor selling fish balls and squid balls and many more, he is also offering drinks. There were several people near the vendor who could be potential customers. We actually bought some too, fried quail eggs and squid balls.

There's also this group of friends with their golden retriever with them on a leash. They came here to let their furry friend explore the black sands. It's a great way to exercise the dog by walking them around a long stretch of open area.

Here's another shot of those kids once again who were having a good time. One is in the water where it's shallow and getting his head submerged while the other is kinda laughing at him because the kid in the water might have drank some😆.

Follow me on my nature travels.
