On the way, I just chatted with my cousins, appreciated the fresh breeze of air, nature, and of course took photos. Then, charaaaaannnn!! We're here! Touch down at Playa Del Carmelo in Maravilla!
If you've ever bumped into my blog before in this same place, this beach is actually just connected with Maravillosa Park but owned by different people. You can check out that blog here.
I was mesmerized by the beauty of the sea. It's really a wonderful beach. There are no entrance fees, just the parking fee and cottage. Considering that there were really a lot of us, it's like a bunch of people from our barangay. They booked three cottages for our belongings. We arrived there, and there's already this decoration that was set up by the teens. It's Lindsay's birthday, by the way, our relative's husband.
Of course, upon arriving there, I looked after my nieces. This cute little one just automatically ran and played with the sand. They're really like used to beaches.
While enjoying the view, we just noticed this cute furbaby and guess what? As expected, my nieces ran to her HAHAHAHA. They're really very close to my furbaby, Mochi, and my little niece even thought it was him. They're playing with Sky; I knew it because they asked for its name. It was a cute interaction, so again I took a snap.
Then here my cousins were also having a fun time together. They're such cuties! and so the one that was buried in the sand.
The birthday celebrant has arrived and we sang him a happy birthday. He was so bubbly and enthusiastic. He even danced cheerfully while everyone laughed with his steps. After that, the other visitors also extended their greetings and wishes to him.
After that, what else should be done? Of course, eat HAHAHA. It's already noon and everyone's hungry for sure, so it's eating time already. There was a lot of food, and I just served this for myself, just the lechon and shrimp.
Right after lunch, the kids went to get themselves ice cream, and then there was this cute kid, my cousin, with his cute smile.
Of course, we got ours as well, hahaha what's funny is the watermelon. The slices handed to us were too big.
The next game was popping balloons. Unfortunately, I failed to document it because I was part of the game.
The third game was mainly for adults, particularly for couples. Maybe some of you here are familiar with it, but for those who didn't know, it's honestly so hilarious HAHAHAHA. In this game, the males were holding the ice, and then their partners would rub it until it melts. For around 5 minutes, the one who's got the smallest ice will win. So that's how it goes. It was so funny.
After the games, we just enjoyed the rest of the day until the sun sets. Some of us went home while the others remain at the beach for an overnight. Overall, it was a fun birthday celebration spent with family and neighbors. The birthday party was a blast.
