It is better to light a Wish Lantern.

Before I let go the string of my second wish lantern, I silently offered a short prayer. . . 

I pray that. . . sa'kin na lang yon! *wink

But never did I forget to smile while uttering my petitions. Yes. Considering perhaps, that that was my first time to taste (not literally) that kind of free spirited event. And it's STELLAR! 


**Although wish lanterns used to be a spy balloon during World War II, the point is, it's indeed pambihira. Other names: Chinese lantern, sky lantern.


I felt like a child once more. I flew a kite back then, but last time was feeling totally odd. Thinking about the dark/cloudy sky on a hilly setting, not to mention the strong winds, and the reason why we did it (Valentines Day), oh my, I wish I had a date. #imho

By the way, my initial wish lantern was with Nicely and Ms. Xchosa (Thank you!) also from that same event. Actually I'm taking photos at that time, when I suddenly remembered what our tour guide had told us. "You must write your wish/intentions exactly," so I forced myself to make it right, for the second time.

Lighting up the lantern.

Tadah!!!

The song Fireflies by Owl City was being played while the lanterns started to fly individually. Sweet! 

Speaking of, I would like to thank Zoocobia Fun Zoo for the opportunity they had given us (bloggers), to know-and-experience such peculiar and very intimate moment. Even I, who as of this moment, have no better half, really felt the presence of "LOVE IS IN THE AIR." 

Zoocobia truly surprised me that day (and night). Why?


By afternoon, after we reached Clark (inside Paradise Ranch, Sacobia Clark in Pampanga) we rested and ate our snack and chased the ongoing animal show. Afterwards, we toured around the theme farm's must-see attractions including The Barn (surrounded by animals, where they held their animal show), Giant Slide (photo not available), Shoot to Feed (newest bait in Zoocobia - wherein you shoot the food from a far to be able to feed the animals inside the cage), and much more! -- Too bad we lack time to test Zooc, a fun-filled gravity ride that's safe for all ages, with a unique steering and braking system that allows you to make the ride as leisurely or as exciting as you want. It runs on a 400 meter track with three hairpin curves that is guaranteed to make one's ride a zoo-per thrilling experience. Next time maybe.  

We as well thrilled by another exciting animal show and parade, also serenaded that night by an acoustic band, and astounded by an arresting poi dance number from our katutubong Aeta's, who are very common in Pampanga.
