Sohoton Visitor's Center & Eco-Lodge

Image
This is your jump-off point if you were going to see the Sohoton Caves. Here arounds, would you also park your (land) vehicles because it's at this point where you hop onto motorboats goin to the caves. If you are wondering why the 'familiar' logos, this is one of those places supported by Ms. Gina Lopez. Let's describe where this place is, starting with this thing they call Wespal Bridge .., "Wespal" is (I think) a sitio in Brgy. Guirang, Basey Samar. Look at the orange arrow. A few steps down is this visitor's center (all pics below), where you register going Sohoton Caves & Natural Bridge Park . But let us describe the rest of the arrows first: The green downward arrow points back to Basey town proper -where most visitors usually come from.

I asked the manong driver why it’s called “easy ride” or “esride”. He does not specifically know. He just knows that it is now called so and times ago were referred to as “multicab”. I jokingly asked why “multicab” since there is only one “cab” hehe. The response was an equally jolly “I don’t know with Norkis why they used that name” and we laughed. The “esrides” lining up at the back of the bell tower are bound for Dauin. It takes only 15 to 20 minutes to re...

Exploring Northern Samar's Eastern Seaboard

Image
This was excitingly fun with lots of happy surprises! That means... this will be a long read for you. But as I always do, I'll chunk my stories into a series for ease-of-read ! Alright... where is this place? It's on the northeastern tip of Samar Island. Here... That portion of Northern Samar (Province) has four towns facing the Pacific Ocean. Why go there? Well, why not? 'Hwag maging dayuhan ... remember? This side of Samar Island, along with towns to the south (part of Eastern Samar) have less explored natural wonders. Keep reading this, and my next stories, I'll tell you about many of them - in a series! I'll start with Palapag, then Mapanas, down to Gamay, Lapinig, Arteche then Oras. In one day? No no hehe! In several days, but most will surely be: I wish I had more time ! How to go there. There are various ways, depending on your preferred level of comfort, convenience, etc., plus - the adventure or challenge level you want to experience, ...
