After our trip to Maryland Temple of Thailand, we went to Montefrio Garden Resort in Kapatagan, Davao del Sur. Finally wearrived at Montefrio Garden Resort, it was a winding drive through the cool mountain roads of Kapatagan and what a breathtaking view.

The scenery embraced by rolling layers of endless green hills and beneath a soft calm gray sea of clouds. The fresh mountain air brushing gently against my face and hair. And whispering a promise of peace, unwind and awakening my senses. It felt like stepping into a different world-felt like an escape that I found peaceful, still, far away from the noise of everyday life and in short the perfect antidote to stress.

As we wandered around, I could feel the excitement filled the air especially for the kids. Cold or not, the kids were thrilled and their eyes lit up at the pool’s and wanting to jump. The pool was completely empty and not a single visitor in sight. Making it feel like our family private retreat. Of course, the kids in a hurry immediately changed into their swimsuits and were soon jumped into the pool and splashing away. And so they enjoy the water.

We were all happy to be surrounded by the beauty of nature. The view of the Kapatagan highlands was simply magical, a perfect family place, our moment being together and creating memories.

There's a pool bar, my sister and I we were interrupted by laughter and splashes from my children.

There’s a cozy restaurant and we placed our order in advance while kids were enjoying the pool. As our food was already set in the long table. The smell of delicious Filipino dishes filled the air and that makes us more hungry.

But Aya’s face was sad and she didn't like to eat. But enough for swimming and time to enjoy our delicious food.

After lunch, I found a perfect spot, the area that overlooked the hills. I sat by the tall table overlooking the mountain terraces of Kapatagan. It wasn't just a beautiful mountain view, it was a quiet moment of how expensive the view was and I felt. That moment I simply enjoyed my time, a rare moment and nothing to worry about. It was just me, my family and nature.

Before we left Montefrio and we took one last look at the view. And it time to go, it was a bittersweet goodbye but the place always holds a special place in our hearts. The landscape was magnificent, but we discovered a feeling of complete peace.
