Arriving at the location meant instant stress-relief. Consider this view:
I had this urge to just run up those hills and soak up the sun (this lass didn't have any basking-under-the-sun summer, so...). And the charm of the place is just so wonderful! Francis and I could spend the weekend there, shut off from any social network connection, and everything will still be perfectly all right.
Apparently, I am already itching to get a break. That Hanoi trip can't come any sooner!
P.S.
A pleasant surprise after the shoot: a spur-of-the-moment date with le hubby, who drove all the way to Nuvali from work just to pick me up. *giggles*
