Smiling Skies

We went swimming in a nearby pool while we were in the province. For a very very small farming town, Jaro sure had a nice enough resort, I don't even think people there have such luxuries, no cable tv, washing machines or Sebo vacuum cleaners. Some even still wash in the nearby river. We were the only once there that afternoon though but that's a good thing because we had the pool all by ourselves. Ozzy had a grand time - he even went on the slide with me. Even though he was submerged in the water, he did not cry or get scared like he normally does.

This was last December 01, Monday. We went swimming around 5 and stopped by 630pm and it was already dark. Since the skies are pretty clear in the province I noticed the "smiling moon" instantly. For a trigger happy person, I managed to NOT take a picture of the moment. I actually thought that was a common occurrence that I just didn't notice before. Apparently, it was NOT common.

Venus, Jupiter and the crescent moon gave us a smile that day, and even though I was not able to take a snapshot of it myself, I am just happy we witnessed it clearly as well.

Did you see it too?
