Captivating Camiguin Sunset

Yes yes... you can probably view this anywhere on the western shores of Camiguin, like from Agoho or Yumbing in Mambajao, all the way down to Catarman and Sagay, probably even the western parts of Guinsiliban. But I opted to do this "watch" at Paras Beach Resort for the memories of where I remember having viewed it last (as in many years ago) - plus, I knew I would have the luxurious comfort of an afternoon snack and a beer (the pizza was a welcome surprise though)!

THIS was the reason why I was in such a hurry cruising along since Benoni!

Being a "son-of-a-beach", I like sunsets by the sea than elsewhere. So here we go...

Thanks to that boat for providing some kind of an accent!


Thanks to this dude for doing his 'muni-muni' right then and there!


Listen to the sunset...


Hear its silent sigh...


As it falls down the horizon...


Going...


Going...


Going...


Gone!


Hah, I loved this show!


Anyway... had a little banter with the Paras Beach Resort crews for a while...
As me and guide readied our bikes...

Then off we zoomed our final leg of this 'around-Camiguin-run'...
Returning to Mambajao proper...

But The Day was not over folks! I still had to take dinner, right? Ah, that's next!

THE BOULEVARD, Surigao City

Image
Virtually everyone in Surigao City is related to this boulevard directly or indirectly! It's such a big thing , they even have a Surigao City Boulevard Development Program and a Surigao City Development Authority . I'm not joking. Those are for real. As in! Involved in it are not only their local politicians but also the chambers of commerce. What is it anyway? Foremost it's a 1.8 kilometer stretch of a highway along the seafront. The concrete pavement tells me it is still new. That is it! Walang basagan ng trip! It is an emulation (kumbaga sa Tagalog pa: gaya-gaya ) of Roxas Boulevard in Manila, or pwede rin Dumaguete’s Rizal Boulevard - and many other seafront boulevards. Aside from being a “park” for the residents, it is supposed to be an attraction in the city, showcasing whatever bla-blah-blah to attract tourists from everywhere on earth. While I was inclined to raise my eyebrows, it did attract me. I was a tourist, right?! So okay, without a speck of d

Balantak Falls

Image
I haven't heard about this waterfall until I was already moments away from being there! And I have no regrets whatsoever. Ah, sometimes, beautiful surprises do happen to my itchy feet. Sometimes haha! For me who had seen many a waterfall, this one would seem nothing to shout to the world about. But being there was mesmerizingly refreshing enough. How tall is it? I'm not sure, but see my habal-habal driver on lower ground and compare his height to that of the waterfall. You should get a hint, at least! Discovering Balantak Falls How I found-out about Balantak Falls ! I was in Brgy. Guirang (pronounced gi-rung) in Basey Samar, for another round of "work-related work"! While walking-around by the entrance to the barangay's main residential area, I happened to see this: A fairly new hut and open on all sides, so I asked them what it is. They said it's a waiting shed. I asked further 'who would wait here' since I knew there are no commuter jeeps in t

THE Ride from Tuguegarao to Sta. Ana

Image
Alrightee folks! I traveled from Tuguegarao to the northern-most town of Cagayan Valley, that is, Sta. Ana. And, Oh My Gee! I never expected this "mode" of transportation! It was a van, yes. The type and style that we call "UV Express" all over the country. But not the usual that I have seen, even in the more remote areas of the Visayas and Mindanao. This ride was on a piece of "flying junk" hahaha! It started like this... the night before I check-out at Hotel Roma, I asked the friendly front desk staff if there was a better way to go to Sta. Ana. than riding the bus. The very helpful suggestion was, I ride the vans instead of the bus, because, they are purportedly faster and more comfortable. Okay, I thought I would do just that. Staff even told me to remind them during check-out that I'm taking a UV Express commute to Sta. Ana. I did just that. The eager staff went out with me to front of the hotel. He hailed a trike for me and gave instructions t
