It's very hot in Ilocos now. Maybe at 35C. Well, because its already summer so the hot days are here again.
My three youngest children wanted to go to the beach, so we went. Three of them: Jaeden, VJ and Lian. Anyway, its Sunday so this is happy day. We rode to our motorcycle. Just enough for us.
Before we went to the swimming area of the beach in our place, we pass by to the fish sanctuary and we watch swimming different kinds of fishes, mostly are coral fishes, swimming in the shore. The kids loves it because the colorful fishes are friendly and they just swimming in the shallow area where my kids are playing.
Then we went to the beach where we can swim. At first I just let them enjoy the moment, the three of them. You can here they voices and you can see how they are enjoying the swimming.
I was just sitting in the white sands watching them.
But because its too hot, I take off my shirt and went swimming also. Oh my, its so cold, the sea water is so cold. Unlike the surrounding that is so hot, the water is so cold that you think there is ice in the water.
It was such a great moment with my kids.

I envy you! You can go to the beach anytime you like because probably its pretty near your place. I hope we can visit Ilocos this year. It would be fun!

That would be fun, especially now Lenten season, we have lots of pilgrimage churches and one is World Heritage Site. We have beautiful scenery here, so natural and not yet expose and explored. If you want idea to visit, you can always ask me and gladly I will share my thoughts to you.

@ilocosboy ayyy, i am not used to bathing in cold water now because of my heart ailment, but if ever i will swim in a sea like there in your place, i better bring a pot of boiled water, a basin, a dipper, and clothe myself with sweater and blanket.
i would not want to get cold, right?
(agmauyung nacun ah- i am already crazy).

yes, its just to hours of swimming. I can't believe that the water is like come from refrigerator. Its so cold. Even though the sun is so hot but once you're in the water, you will chill.

Sometimes the water can feel even more cold when your skin is getting hot from the sun. I notice that myself. I wish I could just go to the beach and enjoy the sun also but here is too cold for that
