Anawangin Adventure Part 1 Thursday, April 16, 2009 |
Been wanting to go to some great getaway place with my bf and finally we had the chance, also to celebrate our 3rd monthsary! Yehey!
We tagged along my mom so she can experience "paglalaboy" too.
Woke up around 1:30 in the morning so we can start early and be at b alinatawak by around 3. Add to the excitement the fact that this was our first time to travel (malayuan) together, with only theoretical knowledge (thanks to maps a nd direction form waypoints.ph) on how to go there.
Driving that early sure was a breeze - no cars to wrestle the roads with. The thing that slowed us down was the fact that we weren't familiar with the roads so we had to be extra careful with the road signs so we wouldn't get lost. But we did, ironically, when we were nearing pundaquit, the drop off point to the famed Anawangin Cove.
We arrived at Pundaquit beach around 7 am. Sadly, the rechargeable batteries we brought weren't functioning as they should. so we decided to buy batteries at the last minutes. And since no alkaline batteries were available, we had to settle for the regular ones.
Before heading to Anawangin, we first visited the Capones Island, home of the lighthouse. No, we were not able to go to the lighthouse, we owere only able to take a picture of it from a distance.
On the way to the Cove, we couldn't help being amazed by the wonderful mountains welcoming us. God really is the Great Artist!
