No Longer a Good View

Yesterday we attended the wedding of my sister's best friend, where she is one of the maids-of-honor (there are two of them in this wedding, and 5 bride's maids) and Lili was one of the five flower girls too. We went to the Harbour Lights Hotel and Restaurant as early as four in the morning because the make-up staff has already arrived, and make up for the entourage has also started. When we left, we didn't really have breakfast, well I was not able to take anything, but the two members of the entourage had something warm that they didn't feel hunger while they were prepped and beautified. When the wedding coordinator arrived, all others inside the hotel room were sent out, and so I simply went to the hotel restaurant for coffee and perhaps enjoy the early morning view of the bay and the harbor. I have always enjoyed the beautiful view at this side of the hotel, whenever I have a chance to be there, but the last time I was visited was years ago. What I saw in this recent visit was no longer appealing. It is due to the current and still continuing construction of the new road that will connect to the Laguindingan Sea Port. The information supplied by the waiters there. Well, maybe for now that it is not finished yet, it looks like an eye-sore, but then again, maybe when it is done, it would look good again, though it blocks the view of the bay and the harbor.

Anyhow, I enjoyed my Filipino breakfast. My coffee was served first then fifteen minutes later, my meal of Beef Tapa, fried eggs, just the way I want it, a cup of garlic fried rice and a glass of ice cold Mango juice. 

That's P 190 plus VAT is P 213.00 in total, though that's not what was written on the receipt. That's all inclusive of the coffee and everything brought to my table.. yum... 

Yeah, we could no longer enjoy that beautiful view, in early mornings or evenings at this hotel, but maybe they will replace it with something.. 

Its green grassy lawn cum garden is still really nice to simply sit or while about. Most pictorials for wedding opps are done there though. Just like the pre-wedding pics the entire entourage did before heading towards the church.
