Cagayan Valley – the other side

(This is a late post.)

Team Injury + me = happiness!

Got this from “Choco” short for “Choco Martin”. Thanks for the equation Choco! =)

There are a lot of things we can be proud of here in the Philippines. Aside from the world renowned “hospitality” we are known for, we have a lot of great natural resources and great food.

Last August, my friends and I went on a road trip to Cagayan Valley. It was a 12 hours bus ride from Manila. The longest bus ride I had with my friends and surprisingly the most relaxing. Maybe because I was exhausted and was able to sleep during the whole trip.

Our first stop was Tuguegarao

Tasted the famous Batil Patung

Visited the Cagayan Capitol

And toured the famous Callao Cave

Our ultimate destination was at Sta Ana, Cagayan

Hiked 3 hours to Cape Enganio

Went down to the coral rich Palaui beach

Swam at the famous Anguib beach

Challenged crocodile island

Do you see a storm coming? :D

We (as a team) can be in a lot of trouble. We can be in a lot of headache. But knowing that the team is there, we can make it through whatever happens.

Thanks to B for organizing the event. Thanks to our guide/s. Thanks to E for the bilo-bilo. Thanks to all the participants. Thanks to everyone who made this all worthwhile.

Here is a video from my friend Mayk. Video here. Thanks Mayk. As always.=)

~Till next time.
