Last month in August, I had visitors from the South (
Tagaytay and Manila). For a time, I have been teaching at the Divine Word
School of Theology (DWST) in Tagaytay City.
Some friends over there came to see Sa Kabukiran in August 24-25 for an
overnight stay. They were Dra. Maritz, Bing, Grace and Gina. They were joined
by Resty, also a colleague studying at DWST. The trip Sa Kabukiran was designed
so that there would be both instruction and leisure. Since all these friends
were students of the Bible at a certain point, we had some great inputs from
Resty regarding the Jewish reading of scriptures. This was a timely input since
Resty just arrived from a month long study in Israel.
We had a sumptuous lunch. I call these meals, Laklak meals.
Laklak in tagalog means unmoderated greed especially in eating. Soon, I shall
be offering up these laklak meals to tourists and travellers who may want to
visit Sa Kabukiran as part of their food tripping. I guarantee you, it shall be
a voracious experience!
My visitors really were dressed to become tourist in an
unfamiliar terrain. The morning after, I toured them around the farm, around my
Mom’s memorial kubo and took some pictures of them with majestic Mt. Arayat at the
background.
I’m sure that after spending a night Sa Kabukiran, my
visitors from the south would have been filled with a great eating experience
and with a calming and soothing experience with nature at the fields Sa
Kabukiran. I hope that anyone wanting to have the same experiences as my
visitors from the south would soon come flocking to this wonderful oasis we so
loving call Sa Kabukiran.
