Back from...

Just got back from our family outing...the only one we had this summer.

It was nothing special but it was great! It was so relaxing!

We went to a hot spring resort in Laguna...

There was a restaurant, a Basketball court, swimming pools (ofcourse), and an indoor swimming pool the size of a large jakuzi(did I get the spelling right?) inside the room we rented...

I didn't swim much...I'm kinda tired of swimming in pools lately. I prefer to swim in a natural body of water like the sea, ocean or a river(so long as it's clean)...

I played basketball for a couple of hours...
There was no one playing when I came to the court but when I started playing, people started coming like ants at the very sound of my dribbling...
We played together. We didn't talk much to each other though...
All WE were there for was to shoot some hoops...
As we were playing, I started to realize the power of the sport...
I had just started realizing that I was playing with people of different ages...ranging from 14-50 years old. I was amazed on how much popular and how much loved the game basketball is...

After playing, I went straight to the jakuzi like indoor swimming pool inside our room. The water was nearly 3 feet deep...and was comfortably hot. I listened to J-music while bathing. As I was relaxed in there, my mind started to drift away...to the land of fantasies. Then, I couldn't help but realize how much that jakuzi like indoor swimming pool thing, and the whole bathroom, looked like an Onsen(japanese hot spring). So I sat in traditional japanese sitting position and acted all cool. I continued doing so until I realized that I was dizzy from staying too long in the hot spring water and got out.

I went back in after eating dinner and at 11 in the evening after watching Mr. Bean's Holiday in HBO.

I went back in again after breakfast and after swimming in the swimming pool. Even though I'm pretty much dizzy of the hot water already, I really couldn't have enough. It was so addicting!

We checked out at about 11 am(this morning) and we ate at the same seafood restaurant we used to everytime we go to Laguna.

Even if it wasn't as much fun as the beach, I had had a pretty good time!...XD
