Carabao Ride

I grew up in a farm and my father used to own carabao that helped us in tilling the rice field. My late brother and I used to ride the carabao after the day's work. When we first visited my family back home, I let my Burritos experience riding a carabao too.

  6. Nice captured moments! I have seen a carabao countless times during our visits to the province but never had the chance to take a ride on its back. Must be a thrilling experience for your kids :)

  9. Photos to treasure! Lucky rin naman siguro ako, since nakasakay na rin ako at the back of a (Danmulag)carabao. The feeling is nakakaliti. LOL

  19. wow. it must be fun to grow up in the farm. i imagine myself and my siblings growing up there...i find it very nice, fresh air, and so peaceful. unlike the city, so crowded, noisy, and dangerous.

  20. Those are precious moments! I myself grew up as a farmer, too, as well as the hubs. Kaso lang, these days, wala na kaming farm. Sila hubby din, his brother is the only one left with the farm pero wala na ring animals kasi rubber plantation na kasi yung farm nila. Hopefully, we can let our kids experience the fun of riding cows or carabaos, too. May be next time we van find a way! :D

  23. I didn't yet experience to ride a carabao but I remember when I am still a child trying to ride a cow (hahaha) ako kasi nagpapastol so sometimes when our cow is lying I try to sit but to no avail ayaw magpasakay.

    BTW, congrats ate Rose for receiving new gift from your hubs and vice versa naks ang sweet. Naku ako wala haha, wala akong pondo para diyan, one year akong walang allowance eh. :(

  25. I used to ride in a carabao too when I was a child, but I remembered crying out loud as I get too scared when it moves because I felt like falling and I find it's skin creeepy. Ahaha. Looks like your kids enjoyed it :)
