Our Sunday was about forests and gardens.
At 6am, we ran for the restoration of the country's rain forests via Haribon's Million-Hectare Challenge. I joined J in the 5K race (nag-level up na ko!).

(Proud of this shot, taken with my lowly Nokia E63 pero maayos.)
After the Run, we headed to Sonya's Garden, Tagaytay for our well-deserved massages and super healthy lunch! Last time we were here, we were still boyfriend-girlfriend, and the place had no bed & breakfast, no spas yet. It's great to know that even with the expansion, it has kept its charm.

Super presko!
Hearing the tree leaves dance with the wind
made our massages even more relaxing!

served after our massages.
Sarap!
Room's motif: traditional Pinoy bahay-kubo.
Capiz walls separated the massage rooms.
After our very soothing back and feet massages (Php560 each plus Php100 for the Couple's Room), it was time for our deliciously healthy eat-all-you-can lunch (Php610 per person).
Above: Create your own salad of freshly harvested lettuce and arugula
topped with mango, broad beans, eggs, cucumber, jackfruit, pineapple,
edible flowers in season, drizzled with Sonya’s Secret Dressing.
VERY GOOD!

Two kinds of sauces and toppings: sun dried tomato and chicken cream with mango.
Topped with ratatouille, salmon belly, shitake mushrooms, black olives,
capers and grated parmesan cheese, pepperoncini.
OK LANG.
