#1071 - Atok Flowers Farm Shots for Saturday. Bold

Good morning dearest Hiveans across the globe! A wonderfully relaxing Saturday to us all. This day is our invitation to step away from the weekly tasks and make this time our own. I hope you simply do what brings you the most peace and happiness this weekend. May your Saturday be as bright, peaceful and wonderful as you are. Enjoy it to the absolute fullest😉.

Now for our daily shots when the alarm buzzed early in the cold transient room at Northern Blossom, that's when we stepped outside before the sun was even up, the air was so cold making me pull my jacket. But this was the whole point of staying overnight here, the ultimate perk.

We could already see a long line of day strippers coming from Baguio, forming at the farm entrance while we were waved right through by the gate keeper. For around thirty minutes, the entire famous flower farm belonged to just the three of us.. me, my wife and our friend Dandreb to explore.

The first light of sunrise began to shine the sky and slowly revealing the most incredible sight of the farm. The farm is terraced on the mountainside is a breathtaking rainbow of colors. We walked through rows of stunning colorful flowers. Further down we found ourselves surrounded by the cheerful faces of bright yellow flowers and delicate, orange colored flowers.

We took numbers of photos with the flowers and the majestic Cordillera mountains and a beautiful sea of clouds as our backdrop with no one else in our shots.

After feasting the eyes in the solitude and the stunning views, we had a free meryenda. The farm had set up a complimentary station with hot coffee and fresh bread. We had a warm mug in our hands a robust coffee while looking out over the flowery slopes we had just had all to ourselves.

The quiet garden began to fill with the cheerful energy of other visitors coming mostly from Baguio City. We exchanged smiles while feeling grateful for our private head start. That quiet half hour was worth every penny of the overnight stay and is a memory we will treasure.

Follow me on my nature travels.
