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...
