First time out in a while

The bridge wasn't in this set though, that one was torn down then replaced with a cement one 10 years ago. I'll take a photo of that new bridge once i get to go back to the cemetery

Oh i thought it's that bridge, looks similar..

It's a pretty common bridge design around the early 1900s so i guess that's why it looked similar to you

In the cemetery, actually. And it's not that scary, it actually feels nice and peaceful around that time so i really like going at that time

It's nit much of a tour though. It's just a really wide area and the main road follows a circle. The mausoleums there though are all cool

Oh yes that's the cool place though.

Yess, that's why i like those ruins, they're a blast from the past because 1900 something pa nandun yan or so the workers say

I couldn't take a pic inside. Some people were sitting there so i just settled for outside

It is. I used to go here on the weekends religiously just to feed the few strays there then we go for a run together. But since the pandemic, i haven't been able to do so. I'm still happy that dog remembers me well

It is very pleasant the feeling of being able to bring food to these stray dogs that are devoid of all love in a family.

That cemetery is beautiful.

I would adopt them but my mom says the 2 dogs and that one stary cat i brought in was enough to feed :<

I know, that's why it's my favorite place

Manila memorial park

Yes, and it's actually the perfect place for me to stufy back when i still was. The lots are expensive here though but at least it's well maintained

Mah hustisya namn yung bayad so worth it naman

Suppeerr and it's nice na they expand it every few year kasi nadami yung nililibing dito yet never sila nagputol ng puno

Woww just reading it makes me feel the fresh air. Ang saya namn talaga magjog around there, di ka matatakot kahit mag isa ka

😅 sana lagi nakakagala. It's been an entire month since i last went out

Thank you so much for those wishes. And yes, this cemetery is much cleaner than the other ones here which is why i liked going here ever since i was a child

Good to keep it that clean

It always has been peaceful there, that's why it's my hideout. Well this is a first I've been out in a month. It was fun to do so again

I live near one. It's a few minutes walk from my house and i can see its gates when i climb up the roof. Is it weird that before the pandemic, i used to look for the oldest tombstone there?

Such a far cemetery... it makes it look like it doesn't want to be visited but there are some pokemon go spots here too, strangely. And i didn't talk about customs here, i merely described what i used to do in the cemetery before the pandemic came

I am not saying you talk about the customs but suggest we could write about it. For example tombstones are not common worldwide.

Ah really? i thought people used rombstines as grave markers everywhere

No they don't. I worked on a graveyard in Germany. No one had a tombstone an exception we're the gypsies. They all had a tomstone plus one on the ground and a photo. Same like my grandparents have (except the photo). It's more as if you see small gardens.

Weird... why would gypsies have such extravagant tomb stones? Weren't they looked sown upon before?

Perhaps they like it or can afford it or it's easier as let someone taking care of trees, bushes and flowers? Can be it depends on the habit. I noticed at the graveyard of my parents many no longer have tombstones either. Sometimes a small rock or a pillar with an item in it.

Sameeee. I needed this time outside ;;-;;

It's mostly rocks and arches though

I'm hommeee and yes, the mass took an hour then the burial took another hour because of the blessing then I got 30 minutes to explore. It was nice to be out again

How long you've been staying at home 😅 good thing there's no quarantine here.. or else I'll be more depressed

Since... july 28, that was on my date then today was the following day. Lucky you tbh. I need to go out and see the sun more

Wow. More than a month at home.. I don't think I can take it... I'm an introvert but staying in one place for long time is the thing I don't want.. at least walk around the village or go to nearest mall..etc

Well there's soldiers and baranggay officers walking around a lot here so if you go out without the quarantine pass, you might get fined or be sent back home. It's been sad for me because i need the outside world no matter how introverted i am. It's toxic in the house

I guess the only way to enjoy your day is to surf the net..haha..or watch tv and movies..

Btw i like the last photo..

I mostly read though, then be a nerd and play my rpgs

Ohh you like that leafy gazebo?

I like the view.. and maybe it's good to stay there to stay out from the sun.. lol haha

Well it was a well maintained place from the start so it's no wonder why the lots are so expensive. Plus the cemetery expands every few years or so because of the rate of death, that's why it doesn't look congested unlike other cemeteries

Wow. I hope some other cemeteries are just like that too.

It is, always has been a quiet place. That's why i always used to study there. Those ruins were one of my favorite spots because i used to climb up those rocks then i lie down at the top to watch clouds

My jogging spot is literally a cemetery 😂😂😂 because there's rarely cars there even before the lockdown. It's also my study place back when i was in uni

She's pregnant now so she couldn't really run this time. I hope i get to see her puppies though

Oh.. Hope you are the one who owns the pregnancy? You gonna be father soon..

I'm a girl and I'm not pregnant, the dog is

Hahahaha🤣
