sunset viewing at corregidor island

afraid that there will be no sunset since it is a bit cloudy...but then got to see the beautiful colors of clouds instead...so worth it :)

It's More Fun in the Philippines

it's more fun in the Philippines...really it is!

i bet one wouldn't be able to finish visiting all the great places in it in his lifetime...after all, our country is made up of 7,100+ islands...unless of course, that person does nothing but travel =)

watch this video to have a glimpse of what our country could offer...and next time you plan to travel, consider visiting us and experience first hand as to why "it's more fun in the Philippines".

enjoy!

i crave travel!

sagada trip: stop-over at mt. polis and bay-yo rice terraces

huge statue of virgin mary at mt. polis, ifugao province

another stop-over going to sagada, mountain province is the mt. polis wherein you will find this huge statue of virgin mary. it's along the road, and the driver would usually stop by this so that people could take some pictures.

beautiful sights to behold on the way to the bomod-ok falls at sagada mountain province 

passing through rice terraces on the way to the 'big falls'

third day at sagada...trekking ulit!!! kahit sobrang pagod the day before at sobrang sakit ng katawan, tuloy pa rin ang trekking. this time, sa big falls otherwise known as bomod-ok falls, ang punta namin...sobrang layo pa daw from the town proper ang drop off point going to the big falls kaya we decided to hire a vehicle na lang going there...from the drop off point pa lang, kita mo na ang magandang view ng rice terraces...yes, rice terraces, magsasawa ka sa rice terraces! even heard someone said na-excite daw sya sa rice terraces and then after a while, naumay na raw sya! hehe...

just came back from our sagada trip...soooobrang pagod! but worth it naman...we promised ourselves to go back, pero wala ng trekking at caving...tamad mode na lang...hehe...

stop-over at banaue rice terraces

as planned, we took the manila-banaue-bontoc-sagada route in going there...we asked the florida bus line beforehand kung kelan pwedeng magpa-reserve ng tickets...sabi, wednesday daw (friday ang byahe namin) and so, hubby went there on wednesday after office to buy/reserve the tickets...and guess what? 2 tickets na lang ang available at magkahiwalay na seats pa...2pm daw sila nag-open for ticket sales, at naubos na agad...dahil ayaw na namin maghanap pa ng ibang bus at dahil iisa lang din ang byahe ng florida going to banaue, we took the tickets and pray na pumayag makipagpalit yung katabi ko ng upuan para naman magkatabi kami ni hubby...we're lucky, 'coz hindi dumating yung nagpa-reserve na katabi ko...meant to be talaga...hehe =)
