#772 - Ilocos shots for Wednesday.

Another warm evening dearest Hiveans. Tonight is my last working schedule in the graveyard shift as I will be transitioning to early morning this Saturday. Getting a sleep during the day when it's hot is really a challenge. The electric fan blows off hot air which is not comfortable to the body that's why me and my wife only get a few hours of sleep time during the day. So during the afternoon time we spent most of it watching Netflix and then around four in the afternoon we got back to sleep once again but there's no guarantee that we get some sleep 😂. My son didn't have to go to school also so I didn't have to cook early but I did still fried a few eggs for breakfast before we turned in.

Now for our daily shots allow me to share frames captured when we visited Ilocos Sur particularly in the old Vigan city which has been a Spanish colony in the north during their time of stay here. From the rental house we were staying at for a couple of days, the sea is only a few minutes of drive and we went there on the first afternoon of our stay. Here's some of the shots.

We have here a couple spending quality time sitting on the sands while waiting for the sun to set which will make the moment more romantic as time goes by.

Then there's two golden retrievers that are also enjoying on the sands chasing each other. Their humans are not far just looking at them while the dogs are running in all directions. There are also people waiting for the sunset right at the concrete barrier where the road is.

A group of kids strolling around the coastal area using a motorcycle and a sidecar where most of the passengers ride. They all seem to be happy too. This is allowed in the province area but in the city, this ride could be deemed dangerous to other vehicles.

A family of three who are here also to observe the sun set and appreciate the beautiful beach area.

Then we also have here a group of energetic kids having fun swimming on the shallow sea water. They gave a signal to have a photo taken so I snap this shot then they proceed in swimming once again after.

Then lastly we got here several shots of the wife wearing a Filipina costume when we went to visit the old prison area during the Spanish era which have been maintained in great shape by the local government. There were also guards who wear the traditional uniform back in old era watching over the jail. They did not allowed us to move further but they told us we can have photos where the first building is located hence these shots.😊
