The lush green landscape of The Manor at Camp John Hay


The main entrance to Camp John Hay along Loakan Road


The lush green road within the camp leading to its main facilities


A refreshing walk along the pine tree dotted road of the camp


The Le Monet Hotel and its commercial center


The rain soaked wooden benches and tables under the pine trees


Taking a refuge at The Manor


A very welcoming abode in the middle of rain-soaked camp


Keeping myself dry inside a warm-embracing comfort room


checking outside if the rain had stopped


Walking along its corridors kept me warm


Checking on its bakers and wine corner what it is in store for me


Deciding whether to order for hot coffee or hot chocolate while seated


Checking again outside if rain has subsided


Keeping myself warm again by walking and documenting what I see


Needed to transfer to a more conspicuous part of the hotel


Seated alone at a warmer part of the hotel


Opted to stay at the hotel's veranda to have a full view of the picturesque garden outside


Looking outside the heavy downpour while comfortably seated with other stranger guests


At last! The rain outside had stopped!


While at the kiddie's playground of the garden


Walking further to the midpoint of the garden


Looking back how far I've walked


Staying long at the garden was so refreshing


Had walked further what is in store at the Little Camp John Hay


The time to leave and stop being mesmerized by the fascinating ambiance of The Manor
