When we left you last time this is what was happening…As the day shortens and progresses into evening and supper is cooked, served and then the WORLD INTERNATIONAL ILOILO CHAMPIONSHIPS OF MAHJONG started…players were eliminated and new ones joined the contest which was hard fought as you can witness from the photos that follow:
This went on until the ‘wee small hours of the morning’ when a WORLD CHAMPION was finally declared. It was 2:00AM when the lot was finally cast. And the winner of the WORLD INTERNATIONAL ILOILO CHAMPIONSHIPS OF MAHJONG was incontestably declared to be:
World International Iloilo Mahjong Champion 2013. OMG it’s Jean.
She absolutely ‘cleaned up’ winning an incredible 300 pesos in accomplishing the feat. She stated that she fully intends to defend her title against all comers at the 2014 Championships! So, if you have money to lose, keep tuned!
Day turns into night and night eventually turns into day again…It’ Sunday morning at 5:30AM and I’m one of the first up. I quickly jump into my bathing suit and head to the beach. The sun is just coming over the horizon and day has come!
The tide is coming in, now…
Low Tide
High Tide
I’m enjoying the peace and quiet of the early morning in beautifully warm water and the resort is starting to come alive and the sights are really something to see at this time of day…but the horizon is looks ominous it looks like a storm may be coming in.
You couldn’t ask for anything better! Except maybe a great breakfast and the ‘boys’ are getting that ready!
One last swim for everyone and then the clean up and packing starts.
Before you know it it’s check out time (11:00AM) and our all too short Weekend Getaway is over. We’re all piled into the “Wreck of the Road” and heading home…
A “Wreck of the Road” it isn’t. It’s just our nickname for our new car.
That’s our Weekend Getaway at Basang Basa – a great little adventure in the “coral sea”…As they say: ‘TRY IT YOU’LL LIKE IT!’ As far as we are all concerned one thing is clear: We’ll be back, sometime really soon and that’s for sure!
Now everyone has to get mentally prepared for Election day tomorrow!
Let’s hope things turn out well on that front too!
