Gangsters @ Ronco Beach Resort: Disturbing the Peace Part III

The morning after...

I woke up to a fairly sunny day...

Most of us were already up and about. We ate leftovers from last nyt's feast, along with leda's chiz whiz packs.

The beach was more or less beside a mountain, and the beach house we were staying at was more or less resting on that mountain. So the owners of the beach put up a steep walkway at the back of the house going up the mountain (I'm just calling it a mountain for lack of a better term, but it was hardly a mountain). Up there was a platform where the scenery is better. The group hung out there right after breakfast... nagpapababa ng kinain, so to speak.
Yup, that's Tarzan over there.

After the morning hike, the group decided to swim. Again, I was merely a spectator to the event, especially since Jon decided to join in.
But it was ok, I was able to get pictures of them horsing around.

I even captured Jon tackling Myke...
...and Myke pushing Dan into the water haha!
Even at a distance, the group knew I was taking a picture of them. Haha!

After taking a bath, we prepared to leave to have lunch in Tagaytay. It was just as well that we decided to check out early because it started to rain.
We wanted to eat at Leslie's. We wanted Bulalo. But alas... the place was packed!!

You know what the reception told us? 30mins waiting time. Nuh-uh. No can do for our tummies!
So instead, we went to nearby Cafe Lupe. Total contrast: we were the only ones there so mucho mucho service. Hahaha!
The rain mellowed to a drizzle. But it was still foggy.
Taal Lake was foggy, but you can still see the cages or whatever those floating things are... (yeah, what are those anyway?)
Ahh..the fog cleared enough to get a nice picture of Taal Volcano.
After there, we headed home and made a couple of stops to Colette's to buy pasalubong for out families.
There ends our Calatagan adventure. As we went back to work (and therefore to reality) the next day, we continue to reminisce the time and the gossip that happened --
Drunken confessions.
Puking sessions.
Shared blankets.
Tender sleeping moments.
(Yikituuuuuuuuu!!)
