When travelling, I can’t help but be enamored by the views from my window. Regardless if it’s a plane, boat, bus or car ride. It ranges from islands with glistening white beach, rolling fields of rice and sugar cane or picturesque mountains.
As a child, I would always clamor for the best seat - a window seat. This didn’t change until now. If it’s my first time to visit the place, I always request for the window seat.
But lately when I get to my seat, I fall asleep forgetting to savor the view.
Then recently after settling on my seat and the fastcraft on the move, I looked at the window. I saw these islets - Siete Pecados (Islets of Seven Sins).
Childhood memories came rushing in. I remembered those times when it would take 2 hours with a big boat to cross between Bacolod and Iloilo . I would then come rushing to the balcony and enjoy the view under the heat of the sun with the salty air breeze.
Then it hit me. I should share this moment - the view from my window.
View from my window: Siete Pecados (Islets of Seven Sins), Guimaras
These islets are between Guimaras and Iloilo .
Fastcrafts from Iloilo bound for Bacolod or vice versa would pass these islets.
I know what you mean about the view.. usually I can't sleep during travel coz I am always just looking outside the window. My husband is always sleeping hehe. In a way it's good for him because he is always refreshed after his nap and I usually feel really messed up after travel coz of lack of sleep, but I can say that I enjoyed the view! =p
ReplyDeleteI usually fall asleep when its a business trip - exhausted with the pressure. Hehe. But if its a personal trip, I couldnt sleep since I'm anticipating the fun I will have exploring the place.
