A day at the Baywalk...

Lately, I've been going to the baywalk using our mountain bike. It is just near our place, If I cycle in a normal state, it would take me about 15 minutes or less to get there. I tried to drive fast and it took me less than 10 minutes to get there...
Whew! I explored the places I've been cycling to and I found out a shortcut. Our place is near Poly Subdivision and Next to Poly Subd. is Alpha Homes. I went there and I don't know, I just continue to cycle as if someone's guiding me in every turn I take. Then, later on, I was out of the Subdivision and I was already at the Matina Aplaya Public Market in just about 6-7 minutes of cycling. Amazing huh?
The road I traveled was nearer than the usual road I took, which was the main road of Matina Aplaya. The Subdivision near Alpha Homes was RPJ or something, hehehe... And so, I continue to cycle till I reach the Baywalk... I really like the place, peaceful, fresh air and so relaxing... I took some photos of David, and the place as well and then I sat on the rocks near the beach... Nag muni-muni... When it was getting dark, I got up and got my bicycle and went back home... My mind's at peace now... hehehe...
Here are some of the photos I took there... :)
The Replica of DAVID was sculptured by MICHAELANGELO BUONAROTTI in 1501. It is one of his two greatest priceless masterpieces. An Italian sculptor and painter - one of the greatest the world has ever produced. The statue was set on the hilltop of Firenze (Florence), Italy overlooking the city.
Full-size replicas of the statue around the world are found in:
- London's Victoria and Albert Museum,
- A centerpiece of a shopping mall in Surfer's Paradise, Queensland, Brisbane Australia,
- The Appian Way Shops at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas,
- And our beloved Davao City will soon be listed in the Internet as one of the prestigious places.
The Little Mermaid... Another replica, this statue is the most photographed in the world, located at Langline, Copenhagen, Denmark, and considered by the Danish as their National Treasure. It is a faithful reproduction including the rock she is sitting on top of the ocean view.
