going to lovely mariveles

once again, i've been invited to join susie on his yearly drive to mariveles. even though it's just a day trip, i'm pretty excited because it's my first trip of the year. :) it's my first trip since singapore, and i've been longing to get out of the city for weeks!

tomorrow, we leave at the crack dawn. even if we run into traffic, our mood will definitely be on laidback mode once we enter idyllic mariveles. we're hoping to have a picnic in one of the grassy fields overlooking corregidor. that town is so charming, i'm sure it's going to do a lot of good to a couple of jaded manilenos. :D

the photo on the left was taken a year ago, on my first trip to mariveles. this is one of those fields that gives you a great view of corregidor. lovely, innit?
