Hello, welcome to my blog. In few hours it will be the first weekend of the year. I hope you're enjoying the holidays.
I'm really enjoying my holiday getaway at my elder sister's village! The warm hospitality and serene atmosphere are making this a truly unforgettable experience. I'm glad I accepted the invitation to spend the holidays with them.
Since arriving, I've been living it up, spending time with my nephews, nieces, and even my in-laws! But today, I decided to take a break and enjoy some fresh air, so I went for a lovely morning walk outdoors.
So this is my first walk of the year, and what a delight it was! I savored every moment of my morning stroll, surrounded by the crisp air and warm sunshine. The chill of the morning was perfectly balanced by the sun's gentle rays, making for a truly invigorating experience.
I also found some fascinating things which I'd be sharing with you. So let's go.
The first thing I found was this fruit. At first glance, it appears sweet, but sadly, it's actually not edible. I had hoped it was so I can savor the taste while on the walk.
Moving away from there, I saw this - a flower seed and it's beautiful bloom.
I haven't seen such a unique plant before. Well, there are many unique things to see here because it's a forest zone.
Isn't this a beaut?
I have a little friend here. She came with the young brother to fetch firewood.
When I saw her go right inside the bush, I followed suit and also helped her fetch some firewood. She was so happy and I was glad to help.
The boy
Finally we have a bike man here. I had wondered where they all went to, lol.
Take a look at this. I'm sure you'd be wondering why these holes on the poor soil 馃槄. Well it's the handiwork of some small games, maybe rabbit or rodents.
Ants are one incredible creatures. Look at the tree and you'll see what they did up there - an anthill. How they built this beats my imagination.
Another bike.
In the previous post I published about "the bees", I mentioned that I caught sight of some box-like structures, which were actually beehives but was scared of going further into the apiary to check them out.
Well I did pass by there during my walk and I summoned the courage to get a bit closer and captured them. That's a job well done to me 馃槀.
Passing by this compound, I saw these logs of woods. Like I pointed earlier, there are forests and bushes here. So the locals, who are predominantly farmers, often cut them to make a living.
It was an enjoyable and refreshing walk, and I'm glad to have embarked on it.
Thank you for reading.
