The Traveler’s Journey
Yipeeee! What a good birthday gift from google, after so many days and months I have been in-active blogging especially on my travel blog I have found out today that it is PR3. Actually before I am a little depressed and disappointed about my travel blog because it has no pagerank but N/A. It stopped my urge to blog about my travel and been hooked up with zynga games and now it is PR3, I am so happy. Anyway before it is PR2 but suddenly it became N/A for many months and now back into the world of so called internet.
Just too lucky that I checked the pagerank before I merged it with my personal blog like what I did last night merging my earning blog and giveaway/freebies blog. So if you are not busy guys you can dropped some love to my travel blog.
Juan Tamad and the guava tree
Happy Tuesday everyone! Second day to blog once again, you know the tale of Lazy John? If you don’t know I am just going to tell a little part of the story..,
…When Lazy John or commonly known as Juan Tamad in Philippines comes upon a guava tree bearing ripe fruit. Being too lazy to climb the tree and take the fruit, he instead decides to lie beneath the tree and let gravity do its work. There he remained, waiting for the fruit to fall into his gaping mouth but the bird eat the ripe guava before it fall to Juan Tamad’s open mouth…
Anyway this is not guava fruit but a pomegranate, a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree growing to between five and eight meters tall. It is mostly native to the Iranian Plateau and India. It has been cultivated in the Caucasus since ancient times. It is widely cultivated throughout Iran, Afghanistan, India and other neighboring country.
I don’t know what kind of flower is this (below) it looks like aslip fruit.
The big red lantern
Today is Tuesday, and its the day for redness. Love and not war, ruby and not stones. So here’s my entry for today, a big red lantern hanging at the front of Dongyue Temple, Beijing China. We went here on our first day, we just walked my husband says it is just three kilometers from our hotel not included if we are going to be lost. In God’s grace we found the temple and we are not lost but we took the longer route, we crossed a lot of intersection. We found it our when we took a taxi after visiting the temple, so much fun under the sun.
Over excited…?
This photo was taken last year, hubby has a lot of plans that Saturday four our first wedding anniversary. There’s a thing on my mind but I ignore it because I thought he is too excited for our anniversary. After visiting Jogye Temple we went to Myeongdong Cathedaral then have late lunch in Everest, a Nepalese restaurant. Then he walked me to the Dongdaemon Gate then we went home, then buy a cake to complete our first anniversary celebration.
It is not a blast but memorable visiting a temple and church on the same day. plus on five more days we’re going to China as the part 2 our anniversary special. On Sunday he asked me what date is it, I told him it is 26th and greet him a never ending Happy Anniversary since the weekend starts. He was shocked, you know why? He thought it was already 27th and last Saturday is 26th…lol, I knew it from the start.

Watery Wednesday: Koi Pond
I’m back into blogging, I was not able to post and hop yesterday still coping with sleepy nights. Anyway here’s my entry for watery Wednesday a colorful koi pond.
Red Maple Tree
When I was still a little kid, my knowledge is limited to what I learned from school , on what I see around me and at our home. All I know leaves has only one color and that is green, but when I grow older and can now walk within a miles I discover a lot of things, leaves or plants is not just green in color, there’s read, brown, yellow and a lot more.
Here’s red maple tree as an example, its leaves is red and not green. This tree is one of the most common and widespread deciduous trees of eastern North America. It ranges from the Lake of the Woods on the border between Ontario and Minnesota, east to Newfoundland, south to near Miami, Florida, and southwest to east Texas. Many of its features, especially its leaves, are quite variable in form. At maturity it often attains a height of around 15 m (50 ft). It is aptly named as its flowers, petioles, twigs and seeds are all red to varying degrees. Among these features, however, it is best known for its brilliant deep scarlet foliage in autumn.
I first saw this leaf, in Canada’s national flag.
