Winter is not yet over

Winter is not yet over. Yes, astronomically speaking, it’s still Winter and it snowed here two nights ago. I actually have been waiting for it. I have wanted to take pictures and videos of Weggis in 360 degrees from the Hilltop in Winter time. But I normally don’t go to the Hilltop during Winter as it is really cold on that area especially if the wind is strong.

Mount Pilatus and the clouds

Everyday of my life while living on the hilltop area of Weggis, I have seen colorful cloud formations just above Mt. Pilatus, the Dragon Mountain of Switzerland. I have seen how beautiful the various colors and shades of the clouds were, especially when the sun set and when the sun rose.

We just stayed in Weggis on November 12, 2006. We went first to the church to attend the mass at 9:00 am, then went to watch the “Folklore Show” at 10:30 am, and finally, watch the parade at past 2:00 pm as part of the Farmers’ Festival Weggis or popularly known as “Sennenchilbi Weggis” 2006.

Simple Pleasures

I wanted to write about those simple things which made me happy for the past few days before that blog entry “Travel to the Philippines”. When I saw the video of “Biyahe Tayo” with english subtitles, I opted to blog about it for the benefit of those who didn’t understand the lyrics at the original version. Then, I got so busy with Weggis.net. I finally finished revising Weggis.net which gave me the feeling that I accomplished something. I have even updated it several times already.

Anyway, these are the things and activities, so simple yet gave me some pleasure…
