Getting out of the four corners of my room is always fun, especially when there is something epic happened. And one of the things that make it more interesting is when everything is unplanned - the excitement on what might happen is right there. So, here's another memorable outdoor fun at the beach I had with my friends, but with a plot twist.
I received a message from one of my friends from Botolan, Zambales asking if we could meet up and bond together at the beach. Since he also mentioned watching the sunset, I immediately said yes and took a ride. It took almost an hour of travel before I was dropped to the town of Botolan, where my friends are waiting. The weather was looking so good for a day at the beach, so I already knew we would enjoy the bonding.

When we arrived at the spot, I didn't know that the foods we will eat were not cooked yet. But they bought ingredients for cooking Spaghetti - the pasta and the condiments needed were complete. The only question we have in mind is how are we going to cook it without the stove. We were left with no other choice but to cook using the dried branches of trees around. But before that, we borrowed some cooking utensils and a table from one of my friends' relatives.
While the others are preparing the ingredients and other foods we bought, we had to look around for woods that will be used for cooking. One of us even prepared three large stones that will hold the caldron. It was the alternative we came up to just to cook the Spaghetti. Exciting yet I already knew it would be an epic experience!

When the fire was already set up, the outdoor cooking mania started! It looked like we were just playing while cooking, but it was kind of challenging but fun. At first, we found it hard to control the fire making it difficult to cook some of the ingredients since they might get burned easily.

The cooking started to get more interesting, and it was when all of us went to see what we could offer. One of us started checking if the woods were enough to cook and added more woods into the fire, while one of us tasted the sauce of the Spaghetti we were cooking and made a final touch of her magic in cooking.
After the wild experience of cooking the pasta, we were finally ready to settle down at the beach and watch the sunset. We grabbed our plates and forks as we started walking into the sand going to the seashore. Since we enjoyed cooking, we did not notice that the sun was setting already. So as soon as we sat down at the seashore, the color of the sky began to get as beautiful as ever.
It was indeed a fun outdoor cooking mania, but we also ended the day with the sight of the amazing sunset at the beach. What a great experience to document and share!
