Spontaneity is what defines my life with the 3 amazing women (one of them is my sister and two are my first cousins) I live with for the last 10 years. See here, I was a very workaholic person and a stickler to deadlines. My life, back then, was ruled by schedules, goals and strict discipline. When you are juggling dozens of duties and responsibilities, you just got to have a plan or everything else will fall apart.
That was then, of course. When I decided to live with these women, I had to peel off my routine one by one. One of those things is to get used to spontaneous plans. If a breeze of cool air hits them and they decided that it is a good day to go beaching, then they would right away prepare and cook what we need, talk to a boatman and off we go to some island.
In this particular day, they decided that since we were not satisfied with the buffet lunch we had in a restaurant and it is too early to drive back home, a side trip to this MANGROVETUM WALK is the next best thing. This place is a nice area if one wants to stroll with his/her dog or just to walk along the mangrove line and the beach area nearby…or to watch the sunset. But it was too early in the afternoon for any sunset so we only enjoyed the cool breeze while watching people. I clicked some shots because I knew I will be using it for this challenge.

A marvelous story accompanied by lovely photographs. Nice work Pixie!
Thank you for dropping by Paul!
In life, the most beautiful things we do spontaneously, without planning
Oh yes, I quite agree…thank you for dropping by
Beautiful photos, it looks like a lovely place!
If one likes lazy walks and watching sunsets, then, yes, it is a lovely place…but I prefer the beach itself for such walks and sunset watching – lesser crowd, more space lol
Great idea using a collage, Love it. I might have to do a collage as well someday soon. Great shots in all of those.
I usually use a collage because I am kinda lazy with uploading several shots hahaha and I thought, if I pick just one photo for this one, it would not give much of an idea how the place looks like…
Exactly. You can really see what it looked like. That’s why i liked the idea so much, and hadn’t thought of it. I’ve had more than a few I would’ve liked to share more of.
Nice post! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much. I love your winter shot!
Thank you for sharing these images on this site.
Thank you for your thoughts and give us feedback on Chewbacca later on lol
My pleasure to assist you. Could you imagine what would happen if PBS Kids heroine Wordgirl was used to recruit police officers? The police chief would be laughed at for selling a kid heroine.
But she is your DP so prolly you will file a complaint for misuse of identity lol
Enjoyable trip to a beautiful place in beautiful pictures! What a great!
Thanks a lot. It was indeed enjoyable. A nice place for a snail pace walking lol
I have sent a ninja turtle to accompany all who takes snail pace walking.
Love these photos, what a great photo shoot. And not planning is a good plan a lot of the times!
I agree…sometimes when we actually plan fate meddles so no-planning is better way of doing things lol
That is absolutely true! 🙂
I really enjoy the pictures. Taking moments out of the plan and letting the wind flow around you, are the best moments!
Yep, true! Too much planning creates expectations…
Living for the moment. The best times are the ones unplanned.
I agree…I learned to enjoy those spontaneous activities hahaha
