TAGAYTAY'S BEST ITINERARY

July 13-14, 2013

TAGAYTAY TOUR
( Picnic Grove, Sky Ranch, People's Park in the Sky, Sonyas garden, Leslie's Bulalo )


Tagaytay is one of the tourist spot which I would have to say nearest to Manila. Instead of travelling more than four hours just for a weekend get-away, why not try Tagaytay. Nearest to Metro Manila that I'm sure you won't be needing too much money just to relax on your weekend. There are lots of places you can visit here. One of my favorite in Tagaytay is Picnic Grove. Next will have to be Sonyas garden. I'll show you the pictures  that we have taken when we visited Tagaytay.

SIGAYAN BAY BEACH RESORT, LAIYA

March 15-16, 2010
SIGAYAN BAY BEACH RESORT
( Critical Team Building )


Another summer outing for our team. This was my first time going to Laiya, Batangas. I've heard about their wonderful beaches and good accommodations. It was surprising to see that the place was truly beautiful. There were plenty of activities we did. One of the activities that I enjoyed a lot was snorkeling. Our team took plenty of pictures as a remembrance our our Laiya trip.

KABAYAN BEACH RESORT, LAIYA

August 18-19, 2012
  
KABAYAN BEACH, LAIYA
(MSIE-GLP team building)


Laiya, Batangas is known for its wonderful beaches that's why there are lots of beach resort accommodations that you can choose from for a summer get-away. This was my second time going to Laiya, Batangas. The first one was in Sigayan Bay beach resort where we had our Critical team building.

BALER (Surfing)

June 15-17, 2013
BALER
( plus Millennium tree, Mother falls, Ermita Hill & Digist beach )


Baler is a well-known surfing spot in Aurora, Philippines especially when summer comes. Sherwin was the one who organized this trip. I'm glad that Chris invited me to join their surfing plan. I thought that this trip was all about surfing but they spiced it up with different activities that includes trekking, climbing and surfing. Honestly, I don't know how to swim so I'm hesitant if I'm going to join this event or not but Karen indulged me to try since it's not all about surfing. I'm glad that I did.

BOLO BEACH

May 12, 2012

BOLO BEACH
(Kayaking)

How could we ever miss Bolo beach?! This place is good for Kayaking activities. It was my first time to do kayaking so I'm excited that my aunt decided to come here. Bolo beach is located in Alaminos, Pangasinan. I suggest that you should try visiting Bolo beach after your Hundred Islands tour. It's just an hour ride from Hundred Islands.

SAGADA ADVENTURE PART iii - Kiltepan Peak

May 31 - June 3, 2013
SAGADA ADVENTURE PART iii
(Day 3 - Kiltepan Peak)


The third part of my Sagada blog is all about our last itinerary which was Kiltepan Peak. We were all exhausted after our spelunking adventure so most of us woke up late. It was already past 5:00 am when we woke up. Some of us decided not to go to Kiltepan but even if I had body aches I will not miss to go here. It was really amazing to see the clouds. For us who were able to see this view, I would have to say that you don't need to ride a plane just to see this. It's all for free. All you need to do is pack up your things and visit Sagada's well-known "Kiltepan Peak".

SAGADA ADVENTURE PART ii.b - Pong-as Falls, Lumiang & Sumaguing Caves (Spelunking)

May 31 - June 3, 2013
SAGADA ADVENTURE PART ii.b
(Day 2 - Pong-as falls, Lumiang & Sumaguing Cave)

    
Spelunking is one of the adventure that I'd love to do once again. I'll share to you our pictures from the entrance of the Lumiang cave going out to Sumaguing cave. Kuya Kirky and his professional team were the ones who guided us all the way out to the two caves. It took us 7 (seven) hours from Lumiang to Sumaguing caves. Well, we were not in a hurry because we often took pictures whenever we had a chance.

One thing I have to advise when you do spelunking is to take off your sandals. It's the best thing to do since the path was slippery. We all tied our sandals on our risk so we won't lose them.

SAGADA ADVENTURE PART ii.a - Pong-as Falls, Lumiang & Sumaguing Caves (Spelunking)

May 31 - June 3, 2013
SAGADA ADVENTURE PART ii.a
(Day 2 - Pong-as falls, Lumiang & Sumaguing Cave)
 


Second part of my Sagada adventure was more on spelunking activities. I have to admit that I was scared and excited when they told me that we'll all be doing spelunking. It was my first time to do this kind of activity so I'm very thankful to Rosa and Eric for this wonderful opportunity. This was never easy for me since I'm short, I have to give extra effort to reach the rocks and climb up on the steep parts. But one thing is for sure, I'd love to go to this place again!
