Hello, fellow hives,
Today I'm gonna share with you my weekend bathing at the sea last Saturday.
We just wanted to make the most of our long weekend vacation. Our old beliefs say that going to the sea early in the morning helps cure any colds and flu. My husband and I were sick with fever and flu that week. I don't know if there are specific medical truths in it.
When we arrived it was still low tide
On our way to the sea.
By 6:30 am we drove to barangay Inoburan or what we call fish port where many people love to bathe in there cause the sea water is very clean due to lots of mangroves in it. The sun was up already when we reached the place. There were lots of people at the shoreline for it was still low tide. And not so many take a bath.
We have to cross this on our way to the sandbar
The sandbar
We park our vehicle in the parking area and cross the water toward the sandbar. As you can see the waters are very clear. We bring our table, food, and of course our babies with us.
This is the morning view
Our breakfast
Sniffing the area
The waters are rising
We put our things on the table and let our puppies play at the sandbar while we started swimming. We need to go far away to take a plunge.
Not so long enough after we arrived the waters began to rise. I called my husband and Charles to transfer our table to the mangrove areas, where it was not yet reached by water.
We also decided to eat our breakfast first before taking a swim again. At the mangrove area, you will be amazed at how many mangrove plants are there.

God's creation
We transfer our table here
Like walking trees
It helps people who live in this place during typhoons and strong surges.
The barangay takes care of the area and so strict on cleanliness. Whenever it is high tide the water reaches almost to cover the mangrove plant. This place is known if you are looking to take a swim.
We let our puppies play around the mangroves while we were eating. The place is so peaceful and relaxing. After eating our workers take a swim in the deeper area of the sea. My husband together with the puppies play and let them swim also. He enjoyed the scene when puppies were paddling towards me.
Taking a plunge
Waters are rising
Picture taking
While they were swimming in the deeper part I also took pictures around the area. I was also swimming in the shallow place since I had to look before our puppies. Not so long the waters are rising even in the mangrove. That is when we decided to go home and pass through the waters before we reached the shoreline.
It's getting high tide

tired and cold
Enjoying the view
The water reaches above our waistline as we pass through it. All our clothes and puppies should be lifted so they will not be drowned. My fur babies are very tired and cold after running and playing around and I enjoy their reactions, we keep on laughing together until we reach the shoreline and enjoy our day together. We felt relaxed and better than before.
That's all for today guys, please continue to support my story. Have a blessed day everyone!
