I want to start this post with a greetings to all our Muslim brothers and sisters, Eid Mubarak everyone.
Yesterday, to celebrate a national holiday in the Kingdom, we went to King Fahd Causeway. It's the boundary between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
This 5-years bridge in the making was so breath-taking. The first time I went there was almost two years ago during our arrival in the middle East. And since it's dark outside I didn't have the chance to see what it looks like. Only yesterday that I appreciate the whole place. I really can't explain the feeling when the wide ocean was right in front of you. It was a breath of fresh air. No doubt.
Let me show you some photos. Sorry it was all taken from inside the car.
This is almost the end of the bridge. We are near the border station.
When I saw this I felt like my heart skip a bit. I don't know why but I just felt free and happy at the same time.
This is the King Fahd Causeway Tower which is actually a hotel. There's a restaurant inside but unfortunately it was close that day.
And , of course, this trip wouldn't be complete without our group pictures. You can't complain, just bear with me. Please. :))

Picnic. |
The day was filled with laughters and fun. And though it was literally very hot, who wouldn't love picnics?!We played truth or consequence which ended up with task that I can't even imagine we are capable of doing. Mine was to ask a Filipino guy of his phone number. That was my FIRST time and I was very lucky that he was so nice. And as I had mentioned before, we also celebrated Ate Rosie's birthday. We gave her flowers, each and everyone of us together with our wishes for her. We do love this girl so much.
It was always nice when you take a break from working too much. It was our treat to ourselves and we're very thankful to our Mami Doc and her family for bringing us there. I really don't know how boring Saudi Life is without all of you. So from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
And that's it, I hope everyone was happy with this holiday in the Kingdom. We are back to work tomorrow and I still have some hang-over with my very short vacation.
GOD bless everyone. Be safe and sound. (^_^)
P.S.
I want to show you some photos of the King Fahd Causeway that I borrowed from Mr. Google. Just want to show you how beautiful it is.
