Unwind after Work! A quick outdoor trip with coworkers.

Saltwater cures all wounds. Metaphorically speaking, a time spent at the beach, heal our souls. So after a tiring day at work, we deserve a nice beach trip! Just like what we did last friday afternoon, my coworkers and I planned a quick trip going to the nearest beach to unwind a little bit!

Since this trip was planned, we got to prepare everything that we need early in the morning, from the foods and drinks to the kitchenware that we will be needing in cooking were all ready and settled. We were working in the Local Government Unit and our office hour is until 5 in the afternoon, that's why we opted to have dinner at the beach. We were supposed to catch the sunset that time but unfortunately we didn't able to do it because of the gloomy weather.

Going to our destination, we used the Municipal Private Vehicle of our department which was the L300 truck and we traveled almost 30 minutes just to be there. We went to the popular beach of San Miguel, San Antonio, Zambales which was known for its gorgeous sunset. Sadly, just like what I said earlier, we weren't able to witness the beautiful sunset because of the gloomy weather. It was just very cloudy that time that Mr. Sun was really out of our sight. But it's still okay for us, knowing that the cold breeze and the peaceful ambiance of being near at the ocean was still perfect for us to relax and unwind after a tiring day at work.

For our food, we cooked famous Filipino street foods such as squid balls, fish balls, and Chicken Feet Adobo. We also prepared burger patty and burger bun for our burgers. And one of my coworker also cooked some soup with chicken strips and vegetable on it that was very perfect for the cold weather. I just didn't able to take a photo of it.

After cooking and preparing all the foods, we just ate. And since we were having a good time, I thought of capturing every moment in this lovely quick outdoor trip for our remembrance.

After eating, our Department Head asked a group picture for our souvenirs. We were wearing purple shirts here in accordance with the celebration of Women's Month.

It was such a memorable day for me. Not just because I was able to unwind a little bit, but also I was able to find another family. And to give you a bit of background about me, this job was my second job experience after graduating from college and I must say that adulting may sounds stressful sometimes but it was also very exciting and full of suprises.

That's all for today loves! Until next time! Gracias!
