2.16.13 This is my first adventure for 2013,and I hope more adventures to come... It is started with the promo that I saw at Metrodeal.com, a package tour amounting 850.00 pesos. But it is only covered the riding of 4*4 and tour coordinator. Upon arriving there, we still need to pay for the tour guide-100 pesos and 300 each for conservation fee. We dont know if we really save for this tour. The tour was organized by Nature trip travel and tours, we also avail there transpo package which is 700 pesos for round trip, quezon ave-tarlac-quezon ave. They made our I.T too but it didnt follow because we arrive late and live Pinatubo earlier than expected. They made us hurry..hmmp Total cost is 850+700+300+100 = 1,950.00 (except food and transpo from our house to Quezon ave.) When I research,they said that there is a 2 way going to the crater,the old and new way, but the tour guide said theres no old way anymore, only the new way, but to enjoy the adventure, we can...

Missing you

Image
Its been a long time since my last hiking to the mountain, as i remember, the last mountain that i climbed was Mt. Manalmon, and it was last year. Everytime I climb a mountain, I was thinking, "why I climb?", why I like this?" I swear its very hard to climb with a heavy bag at your back, its a long walk under the sun or rain, but when I reach the peak and saw the view, all I can say is "WOW", it is a nice view, and then again, on my thinking,I will join for another climb again hahaha... But now I dont know if I will ever climb again because my officemate which is also my co-climbers is now getting married and Im happy for her :) , hope me too, soon, hehehe... I miss you mountain...

Our group decided to go to Mt. Manalmon, a mountain with side trips such as caving, walk in cable wire, and ziplining. It is located in Bulacan. My hometown Mt. Manalmon offer caving, ziplining, swimming, and you can go to other other side tru cable wire. We arrive late in Bulacan, so we do a night trek, it is also a rainy day so the trek going to summit is a little dangerous because its slippy. Anyways we enjoy our trek even it is dark and scary. hehehe on our way to summit                    It is advisable to hire a tour guide for our trip. So we took a two guide, and we are so lucky that we choose them. They are kind and they take care all of us all the time. This trip was so fun, I meet new friends, I try new things..overall I enjoyed hehehe Just look at the pictures ha!! Its a good day holding a tru gun, and its heavy pala, Those guns were ...
