Summer solstice has fascinated me in many ways. Apart from seeing more of the day in summertime, it is the day when the sun stands still and the longest day of the year, being today, ends the midsummer celebration. It was prognosed earlier that the weather wouldn’t conform with the celebration as it didn’t on the first day but it ended quite well and warm enough to have a grill in the backyard, with jackets or cardigans on. When the sun stood still today, I saw no aliens, as opposed to the film, When The Earth Stood Still. I got this fascinating view through my kitchen window instead…

And what should I do when the sun’s still up? I took pictures of this lone air balloon in the sky until it dropped to somewhere beyond my sight. All I could imagine was it seemed to drop on the roof when it actually didn’t.

I have never seen real life air balloon before. I wish they have it here, in our place. Geee

I wonder why air balloon flying is not so popular in warm countries, when it is more appropriate to fly this balloon in dry weather.
Few times during night time Moon too looks like Sun.
Am I right ?
Hobo, how are you? Have you recovered from the fall?
Yes, you’re right. Sometime’s it’s hard to visualize the moon when the sun is up in the night.
Lucky you could snap a picture of air balloon. I never see it before =)

Reesie, oo nga, ang ganda kapag marami. Kaya mo kayang sumakay nito? Hehee, ako, takot kasi ako sa height kaya hanggang tingin na lang ako.
Takot din ako Mar kasi madami akong naririnig na casualties sa mga balloons na iyan. Kasi wala ka talagang control. Takot!!!! Last year nga, may isa atang namatay sa Balloon Fiesta namin dito, napunta sa electrical wires ang balloon niya.

Eeehh, nakakatakot naman! Kaya ayoko talaga dahil sa nandun ka na sa mataas ay may mangyayari pang di inaasahan. 🙁
Ay ang ganda nang mga photographs.
Hehee, ganyan din Oz kapag summer, di ba.
I saw the movie yesterday. The original was on TV 2 weeks ago so I was looking forward to a modern version of it. Not a totally bad movie, as it was watchable throughout. I was more disapointed with the end with the way the lights just went out and that was it…..end of the movie and then the credits. They didn’t even show out-take scenes either(haha) As I was driving home with my friends from the showing I suggested that possibly an appropriate ending would be the lights going out….then perhaps showing the professor under candle light finishing the final touches on his blackboard formula(from the help of the alien). Move ahead 3-5 years and show the human race enjoying clean enviromental power as the result of the formula, with the professor overlooking the city from his 50th floor office and seeing energy everywhere like the spheres glow, powering everything. Perhaps with the robot coming back from the swarm of bugs to watch over everything. I guess I hate abrupt movie endings! haha
