Mateo and I joined our school’s immersion trip for first year and second year students last December 5 to 7 in Morong, Bataan. We joined the same trip last year which made him even more excited for this one, knowing already what he’ll be doing. It was a fun trip and my little boy nurtured his love for the sand.

He refused to get in the water but had so much fun in the sand. He also loved watching the turtles and willingly released several turtle hatchlings into the sea. He made animal watching his pastime during the trip and exclaimed whenever he’d see cows, goats, egrets, horses, and many more. He even asked if he could ride one of the horses we saw along the way. Good thing he didn’t insist otherwise I’d have to look for breeches. I’m hoping we could tag along again next year because Mateo is already looking forward to it.
