It has been a really long time since I updated my blog. Now, I am going to post some photos from Mag-aso Falls, one of the many attractions  in Bohol, found in the Visayas region of the Philippines. I'm so glad I received some nice picture from a good friend. I have never been there but seeing all these fabulous views makes me want to share them.

I'm going to write today about this beautiful red flower, the dahlia. I was not entirely sure of the exact name; as there are various types of this perennial plant.  I searched on Google and ended up on the Wikipedia, where I found out that it's actually called "Bishop of Llandaff".  Strange name.  I wonder why.

A very good friend of mine really likes travelling; visiting popular tourist destination like the Panglao Island Nature Resort of Bohol. Here are some of her pictures of the varying sceneries; a beautifully landscaped park and garden close to the sea.

I'm so grateful to have all these photos that I can publish on my blog. I  all the views especially the swimming pool as it can be very warm in the summer.

This view of some  farmland in Calinan, Davao, is just incredibly beautiful . Do you like being in the countryside?

Some people dream of settling down in the middle of nowhere for a change to a laid back lifestyle. It can be interesting.

I searched around on the Subclipse wiki and found that the details were stored in the Windows %APPDATA%\Subversion\auth directory, which is C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Subversion\auth on this computer. As I was only having problems with one repository I did not want to delete all of the passwords. This meant opening up all of the files in the svn.simple directory and looking for the repository URLs. Fortunately, the files are all text but the file names are seemingly random hex digits.

After deleting the file for the problematic repository I just went to Eclipse again, entered my password once and the problem was solved. I did not even have to restart Eclipse.

Enhancement request 2775 on the Tigris issue tracker will hopefully be looked at in release 1.8 but it has been waiting for attention for almost 3 years now.

This is one of the plants I have in my back garden. Spring is here. I  cherry blossom because it is amazingly beautiful when it flowers

I have just seen this video  of Imelda Marcos. Many years ago, it was, and still is, a controversial issue for many people around the world especially the Philippines. It's unthinkable now

Does this picture look familiar to you? I guess not. This modern entrance arch is now the new face of St. Mary's Academy of Kidapawan, formerly Notre Dame of Kidapawan for Girls. I also have loads of photos inside the school grounds including the new classrooms and the gym.

Students who studied here a long time ago would be really amazed to see how their old school has improved. This is so different compared to the old building; which appears to have been knocked down.  The design of the new fence of the entrance and the gate is beautiful. I   this place.

Have you seen this sort of lizard before? My brother found this beautiful young animal near home. I heard that when this gliding lizard gets older; wing-like flaps of skin will start to grow from its abdomen. It's so peculiar

This might be a Draco Volans; a Philippine flying dragon but I'm not sure as I cannot find a picture that exactly matches it. The mixture of colours of its skin is fascinating.

This beautiful view of Sagbayan Peak is one of the attractions of Sagbayan town in the Visayas region of Bohol. One of the amazing features you can see on these photos is the background of the Chocolate Hills, which was taken from Sagbayan;  a neighbouring town of Carmen; the main location of the Chocolate Hills. 

Within the park there's an outdoor area provided; a children's playrgound; it's not visible though  It's overlooking the natural and attractive scenery. It's astonishing.

I'm so glad  that my good friend Arne has given me the permission to publish this photographs on my blog. I'm so pleased
