Christmas

Finally, before Christmas, I cleaned my front yard and build a wooden terrace and a table. Yes, it is a rugged one, but using only a hammer and saw, it is adequate for me. It is nice to sit outside and enjoy the smooth winter winds. Hence it has been raining a lot lately. No pictures, due the heaviest rains occurs during the dark hours, and I'm afraid to lose, or deep wash, my mobile phone.

Front yard, before the cleaning.

Actually, the right side is cleaned, left side is waiting for action.

Job done.

Removed that rather smelly grass. Filled empty space with gravel. Nowadays, cleaning the yard at least once per week to avoid moss and bad smell. 
Have to paint it as well. I'm not sure is the wood thee best material for this climate.

Santa Claus, my favorite man.

Oh yes, I agree.

Now getting ready for new years party, after that the year 2011 is nicely wrapped and gone.

Happy New Year 2012 for all of You! :)

Storm

Luckily, not here in Mactan island. The storm passed us from the south. Weather forecast was predicting heavy rain in this area for Friday and Saturday.  Despite of that, weather was nice and quite sunny. Hence, Thursday night it was raining cats and dogs. Till alive:)

Thursday rain, Mactan.

Waiting for Santa

Yeah, Santa is coming:) Well, at least one Finnish guest from China will hit the Cebu during the Christmas time. Just taking easy at the moment and checking how Euro is doing in market. Dammit.

Went to see some live music. Not bad, nice voice and lively show. Some western guys were brave enough to show their talent as well. Not me.

Diones, Mactan.

Weekend relaxing in nice bamboo bar with good atmospehere.

Banana Moon, Mactan.

Oh yes, the third Visa extension, 2 months, was only a bit over P2,800. Not bad.

Independence Day

Today, 6th of December, is Finland's Independence Day. Happy birthday, Finland! Perhaps a couple of shots of ice cold vodka is in order later on.

:)

Went to Manila last week. Lucky guy as I am, had a flu during the whole trip and the remaining of the week. Hence only one pic taken from my hotel window. It was a blast lying in bed, watching TV and ordering room service... Not!
Manila, Quezon City.

 Holidays are coming. Time for a Christmas decorations. Well, few lights, it is better than nothing:)
 
Let there be light.
