This is one of the pictures I took when I went to Pangasinan few days ago. I was waiting for the right time to take pictures so I could have a good shot on the sunset. I'm in Lingayen Gulf at that time. Beyond the Lingayen Gulf is the South China Sea and I thought it was the best place to take pictures. The picture was taken about 30 minutes before sunset.You can still see the rays of the sun peeping out of the magnificent clouds. It reminds me of someone who peeks at you while you sleep. My sunshine was there before the clouds came in. And now he just peeked at me behind the clouds. I know my sun will emerge again to give me a great sunset. At that moment, I felt lonely again in the stretch of the long Lingayen beach. The sun is not showing up but its stil bright. I know the sun is there for me eventhough its not showing up. Its like two lovers who share the same feelings even when they're distant apart...

You are my sunshine my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray. you'll never know dear how much I love you, Please don't take my sunshine away... The other night dear as I lay dreaming, I dreamt that you were by my side. Came disillusion when I awoke dear, you were gone and then I cried... You are my sunshine my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray, you'll never know dear how much I love you, Please don't take my sunshine away... You told me once dear there'd be no other, that no one else could come between, but now you've left me to love another, you have broken all my dreams... You are my sunshine my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray, you'll never know dear how much I love you, Please don't take my sunshine away...

It was a boring day when I decided to pack my things and head north to Pangasinan, my mom's birth place. I've got my Olympus Digital Camera, PSP and N70 - my gadgets so I can survive the long bus-ride. Exactly 10:18am when the bus left Cubao terminal. I was seated in seat# 18, riding on a bus number 1818 and coincidentally it was the 18th of May. I don't know whats with 18 during those times. All I know is that I felt different. Almost 5 hours later, I arrived in Lingayen. I had no idea where to eat so I decided to go to a near fastfood. I found Jollibee and ate my lunch. After that I went to Lingayen Beach, just behind the Provincial Capitol Center of Lingayen. I sat by the beach and with my tired feet i took some pictures of the sea. Lingayen Gulf stretches across towns from Alaminos to Dagupan and this is where Douglas McArthur landed when he returned to the Philippines in WW2. The shore was magnificent. As I waited for the sun to set, I managed to write my name in the s...

Day 3 of our trip to Northern Luzon - Hundred Islands. Past 6am when we left Alaminos Port, we rented a boat going to Hundred Islands. We went to the 3 major islands - Governors Island, Childrens Island and Quezon Island. We stayed there until 1pm. Pinoy Big Brother House in Governor's Island. A cave that stretch across the other side of the island. Quezon Island. Children's Island. Islands viewed on top of the Governor's Island.

Day 3 of our Trip to the Northern Luzon - Alaminos. We're on our way to Hundred Islands in Alaminos about an hour and a half motor-ride from Lingayen when we left around past 4am, I got my cam and took my earliest sunrise pictures. I took the first picture on the road going to Alaminos while the rest were taken on the port side of Alaminos. After a long motor ride we ate our breakfast near the Pension House where we rent a boat going to the Hundred Islands.

Day 2 of our trip to Northern Luzon - Manaoag Church. Its almost 12 noon when we arrived in Manaoag Church. The ambiance was really calming and peaceful. It was a Saturday and we're lucky because its not that populated with devotees. Carved on an old narra tree. Rosary Garden. Painted on the walls of the church is an image depicting the story of Our Lady of Manaoag .

Day 2 of our trip to the Northern Luzon. We planned of going to the Hundred Islands first on our 2nd day in Pangasinan but we woke up late. LOL! So instead, we went to Manaoag. Since, we're already in Lingayen, we paid a visit to the Epiphany of Our Lord Church, the Archdiocese of Lingayen-Dagupan Catholic Church.

Day 1 of our trip to the Northern Luzon - Lingayen Gulf. I sat by the beach behind the Pangasinan Capitol in Lingayen. It was like forever waiting for the perfect light to come and I hope I got the right one.
