A day after my mother’s birthday, Rachelle and I left Cavite for their hometown of Labrador in Pangasinan. We took a six-hour bus ride from Pasay City and reached Barangay Lawis at around two in the morning. Her mom Tita Elsa greeted us and served us sinigang na hipon cooked in Pangasinan style! This picture was taken when we went to the Covelandia Beach Resort for her parents’ wedding anniversary.
