I’m not a morning person. You can’t make me get out of bed before 9.00 a.m. unless it’s a schoolday and I have to cook the kids’ packed lunches. Or, if we’re going somewhere special. Or, if Speedy makes it a condition for buying me something nice like new camera lenses. :razz:

No, really. Seriously. I’m wide awake at night but my brain takes so much time to function and focus in the morning. But on our second day at the Sampaguita Gardens Resort in Aklan a few weeks ago, I didn’t need too much prodding. I got out of bed before the sun was up and in time to take photos as it rose on the horizon. What can I say? I have so many sunset photos but none of the sun rising by the sea. I stood on the breakwater and took photos.

And of Speedy too.

Feeling like Leonardo di Caprio in Titanic

That’s Speedy on the viewing deck feeling the sea wind a la Leonardo Di Caprio in Titanic. I would have played Kate Winslet but there’d be no one to take photos.
