24: Life is Beautiful

Project: Food & Thoughts No. 24


Our trip to Anguib Beach, Sta. Ana Cagayan  became more than just an under-the-sun adventure, it was also a near-death experience.

We got on a Motorela. We weren’t the first to do this. In fact, this is the only means of transportation if you don’t have a private car to bring you to the amazing beach.

Motorela
 The trip going to the resort was smooth and easy. We’d get off the Motorela on very steep roads to ensure the driver can drive up smoothly.

It was a different story on our way from the resort. On one of the steep roads, the driver didn’t give us enough time to decide whether we want to get off or not. I was thinking it was because he was too shy to ask us to because we've been very nice to him. I felt like he wanted so much to give us a convenient ride.

He drove up the steep road but eventually lost control until we slowly descended to the left side of the road. Good thing he was able to at least control its direction. If he wasn’t, we would probably be dead by now. We could have fallen off a cliff, or a rocky road, or a deep pit (and God knows what else on the right side of the road) and got ourselves seriously injured.

The story didn’t end there. We had to endure the rest of the travel to get to the city. We’d get nervous passing by what seemed to be an easy road the first time we passed by it. There would be moments when we were all silent while driving up the road and instances we'd cheer the driver on when he successfully makes it through a difficult road.

Thank God we made it. We made it!

 We felt like we had to celebrate that night so we had a very hearty thanksgiving dinner.

  
We went to Urban Kitchen and ordered the following:

Pan Chicken with a choice of gravy or mayo &
Pan Garlic Chicken.




Barbeque Chicken

Although we were tired and were all ready to hit the sack, we savored every minute of this dinner – laughed, talked, reminisced and expressed our gratefulness in our own little ways.

 
Life is beautiful.

To God be the glory.
