Start: Davao City. One bus, one jeepney, and one habal-habal ride later, we reached our destination. Panas falls is a layered waterfall in New Corella. My friends were worried that it might be muddy because of the hard rain the previous day. Fortunately, it was not. But it still rained before we left for home.

Cycy and I had a fun stop in Tagum. Grace accompanied us to the fair where we had more than ten rounds of ferris wheel ride. The operator said ten rounds for a ticket, but I guess he stopped counting.

Grandma's Crochet and a Bracelet

Mom recently found my grandmother's crochet from her piles. We've been talking about those these past months and finally, I get to keep them. Grandma made the top and skirt for me when I was a baby. I wish to be as good as her someday.

And here's my latest crochet project: a bracelet using broomstick (jiffy) lace and double crochet. For the "broomstick," I used a larger than usual colored pencil. I tried using a marking (pentel) pen, but the circles were a bit large for a Cannon thread. Next time, I'll be trying this stitch out with a larger yarn, marking pen and single crochet.

I used the back side because it has more texture. The right side is smoother.

It poured during the wedding. We were eventually told at the reception that Eds used to ask for rain as a sign. ^^
