Enjoying the slow lane

The pictures below are from the Dolores Tropicana Resort in General Santos, Philippines. This is the beach area of the small resort. There are a hundred or so little “cabanas” that are for rent during the day or for an entire 24 hours. Many families come here on the weekend and rent (300 pesos = $7US) a small open-air cabana where they cook and prepare food. The family sleeps on the beach or wherever they can lay down.

Meanwhile, children and family members walk out into the ocean and play or just sit to escape the heat. Its amazing to see hundreds of people all here to enjoy the company of family and let their kids play on the beach. People swim all day and all night long, only getting out of the water to sleep, eat or sing. It is fascinating to watch small little children walk out into the water and play for hours.

I miss Bangkok, but this is not a bad place to be….;)
