One December Dusk In Palo
Wowowow what a colorful end of day! Look at the blues, reds and other hues up in the sky. Beautiful!
But I was in no hurry.., the driver was!
Ah yes, our drivers have all been trained to remember and stick to their "protocols". Like I left that last meeting an hour before ETD? That is a no-no for them! Even if they know I already did a web check-in as early as last night! Their protocol? Passenger (me, in this case), must be at the airport at least two hours before departure. Oh ha, laban ka? I am well taken care of in Region VIII! Sometimes, to a fault!
I requested that we stop for a moment so I could take pictures of the alluring afternoon sky. Promptly replied with a direct, and firm "no sir, waray na kita oras". Wha! I should have taken offense, but I know the protocols they follow, which, I am also supposed to abide by, at all times! So goodbye nice photos!
Anyway.., as the vehicle zoomed and hurtled along this road by the sea (Manlurip?), I sat mesmerized at how such rare heavenly pastel colors intermingled to paint this one-of-a-kind wonderful takipsilim!
Notice that in all pictures here, the lower portions are blurry. That is because the car was speeding so fast, that I was left without a choice but to just merrily take shots with my cellphone - for the memory!
The heavenly ghosts were probably already inviting, reminding, starting.., to celebrate THE holiday.
Merry Christmas one and all!
