“Backpacking” trip day 7: “Strange Couple”
(All photos from celphone + random thoughts. Camiguin to CDO trip. )
Then, we’re in CDO!
I guess we’re “strange couple” because we’re trying hard at being backpacker but would jump at the first sight of comfort. 🙂
“Backpacking” trip day 6: The Girls of SAAI
(All photos from celphone + random thoughts. Camiguin trip. )
What i like about Camiguin is that every one seems to have a “dignified” living. Of course i don’t know them well but they seem to be self-sufficient.
The people have their business among their plants and animals.
“Backpacking” trip day 5: top spots from everyone’s top checklist
(All photos from celphone + random thoughts.)
We “dated” on top of the last station (this is one of the reasons why i think it’s not appropriate to make “stations of the cross” a tourist destination”). We probably stayed here for 30minutes.
Hotcake/pancake!
“Backpacking” trip Day 4: 200km land + 12hour water travel @.@
I’m usually the patient person between mark and i. But today, i felt like mark is enjoying the ‘slowness” of eveything as if he’s like enjoying seeing me “tortured” with it.
When we landed at the Balinguan bus terminal, i devour a kilo of rambutan! Balinguan is where we’ll take the boat for Camiguin. There’s actually a fastcraft in CDO, but mark wanted every thing slow.
It just dawned on me that it’s Lanzones Festival when saw this dancing along the way to the resort. (I’m not so big about being in a place during festival.)
“Backpacking” trip Day 3: backpacker in the mall
SOne of the tips i often read from travellers is “keep an open mind.” Like duh!
Dinner at the port’s “boulevard.”
“Backpacking” trip day 2: BEE Present
Maybe because mark is reading “the paradox of time” by zimbardo (highly recommend this book) that mark’s like talking about “be present” again and again. Or maybe bcause life lately gets so extra crazy.
He said he called his resto “blackforest” because he bakes the real deal “blackforest” cake because what we have here, according to him, is just chocolate cake. But we’re not able to have the blackforest cake because he cannot make it on regular basis because of lack of ingredients.
Blackforest resto Located near the Dauis bridge, before crossing to Panglao Island. Though owner said that they will be relocating near the town proper.
