Too Short

I guess that sums up our vacation. Just like any other vacation, eh? Everything was done in a rush...and before we know it, it's over. Still, I'm glad we went. It was only for a couple of weeks but we got to spend time with family which is the most important thing of all. That's why we went. I got to see my brothers and sisters [in-laws included] after more than 10 years. We've aged and gained some pounds but we're still the same. I also got to meet the 3 grandchildren I've never met before courtesy of my 2 nieces, as well my nieces respective husbands as well as my nephew's new bride.

Both weekends we were there were spent with family. The weekdays were spent on a road trip. Hubby wanted to see the terrain up north and that's what we did for 5 days...drove/rode to see it. The verdict? He liked what he saw...the terrain, I mean. What he didn't like...TRAFFIC! It was everywhere as expected. Road constructions are also on-going in almost all of the places we went to. The road trip was far from perfect because of the traffic and miscalculations of time of travel. There were a couple of times we were on the road until the wee hours of the morning. But like they say: Charge it to experience.

Obviously, one post is not enough to talk about the 15-day trip so I'll be posting more about it in the coming days or weeks, maybe months. I haven't recovered yet from all that had transpired. Needless to say, I wish we could have stayed longer. But then again, there's always a next time, right?
