During my holidays,i like to spend a week or two in Rosales.My mom still lives there and my son met his local wife there during his holidays,married her then also built his house in our land.

The land is planted with mango trees,bananas,jackfruit,local lemon(lime) and rice or corn during rainy season.Whenever Im ín my hometown i feel so at peace with nature,and when i wake up in the morning especially when the rice flower is in bloom,the delicate perfume tickle my nose and i perked up to immediately rise and look eastward so that i can also watch the sun rising behind the Balungao mountain.
I was taking this photo of the ricefield planted with some mango trees planted three years ago ( with the morning mist,the ricefield looks so green and so fresh and pleasing to the eyes) when hubby suddenly apeared and requested to be into the scenario,so i have only this to show you.Pls click to enlarge.
It would have been an ideal place for us to retire in our old age, if only we also have the sea nearby...( i still have to convince hubby,sigh..)
