My First Birthday in Steemit! <3 Cheers!

in #life7 years ago

Hello Steemit Friends!

Today I am celebrating my 1st birthday here in Steemit! Hooray! Been here for about 2 months and I can say that steemit has became a part of my daily routine now. :)

Sooooo, I just want to share with you how it went! Today is my birthday but since i need to report for work today, I celebrated my birthday with my loving friends last Sunday in Tagaytay City. It is one of the well-known provinces in Cavite where people go for some unwinding and appreciating the wonders of nature specifically the Taal Lake.

We first went to visit the Pink Sisters Convent to offer prayers and give thanks to the Lord for giving me another year of wonderful life. Taking picture is not allowed as a sign of respect. It was called Pink Sisters because nuns were in pink. :)

Then we took our lunch in one of the restaurant who serves delicious Bulalo (a beef-done marrow vegetable soup). The name of the restaurant was Mer-Ben's Tapsilogan. We ordered a large bowl of Bulalo, Pork Sisig and Adobong Kangkong.

Then we went for a quick visit at People's Park. It is used to be known as Palace in the Sky. Built under the administration of the Marcoses in 1979, it was intended to be a guest house for US President Ronald Reagan, who was set to visit the Philippines. But due to the turning tides of the political situation at the time, the “palace” was not finished, the visit cancelled, and, after the People Power EDSA Revolution, the name changed to People’s Park in the Sky. Unfortunately, its condition deteriorated, too. But despite the rusty condition, it remains a top attraction in Tagaytay. After all, sitting at the highest point of Tagaytay, the site provides a 360-degree view of the city.

I was able to capture this amazing picture where it shows a heavy rain down town.

Then we ended the short foodtrip in one of the coffee shop near People's Park, with a cozy ambience and a nice place. Cafe Voi-La!
