This place was our playground when we were kids---a small rocky tip of a cove locals call "kabatuan". In my teenage years, I heard people call this place "Kissing Rocks", referring to two huge rocks behind the mangrove that moved closer through years of wave action. But my friends and I credited the name to the fact that lovers rendezvoused at these rocks before sunset. I returned to this place on Monday morning with my siblings and cousins to reminisce the countless summers our grandmother brought us here. We buried our grandmother, Lola Fanny, on Sunday afternoon. She was 97.

Absolutely breathtaking!
Lovely place.
Oh you must have tons of memories in that place. It's really beautiful. Did you meet your crush there during your highschool years?
I love the copper colored sand. I am sorry to hear about Lola Fanny. No wonder, I have not seen you around in the blogosphere. My sincere sympathy.
Ebie's Watery Wednesday.
Thank you, Ebie.
@ ewok1993 This is where i learned to eat oysters. Crush, no...but there was a boy who lived near this place who was my enemy all through grade school.:D
Did I hear someone said oysters? I love oysters! Nice view and song by Luther Vandross.
Great place, lovely photos. Sorry for your loss.
Parang nagsasabi ang mga Kissing Rocks ng makalayo't bato man daw ang damdamin, maghahalika't maghahalikan din sa paglipas ng panahon at pagtulak ng alon :)
Thank you, Coffeedoff.
ang galing mo, pinoynapinoy.:P
hi,
Similar interests, mutual respect and strong attachment with each other are what friends share between each other. These are just the general traits of a friendship.To experience what is friendship, one must have true friends, who are indeed rare treasure.
I have added you to my blogroll, hope you can do the same thing for me so that we can have constant communication.
nice rock pics.
Wonderful memories and photos, though I'm sorry you've lost your grandmother.
Dear Miranda, you have my heartfelt sympathy and deepest condolences. What a remarkable age your grandmother reached! This is such a lovely place and post to remember her. Have a wonderful week :)
My condolences...sad to hear your grandmother passed away...
Yes... I can understand the feeling of going back to the place you grew up.
Thank you for the condolences. I appreciate your kind thoughts.
What a lovely place ... perfect for remembering your grandmother. I'm sorry for your loss. Thanks for your visit to Sacred Ruminations earlier this week. I'm playing catch up tonight after a much too BUSY week.
Hugs and blessings,
