Way back at Lear, Patag has already found its way on my must-go list. The opportunity, however, presented itself just lat month. I wasn't even invited yet I have managed to join a very intimate group of the Sendicos and their extended family that included Junrey, Marc and JD who asked me to tag along.
The outdoors, whether the mountains or the seas hold an inexplicable amount of interest in me. The thought of hiking and bathing under the waterfalls had me up before sunrise and on the road even before breakfast.
Of the many treats that the place is known for, we only visited the falls that feed the dam and the shrine that was built for the many local heroes who died during the Japanese occupation.
National Parks in the Philippines face the same problem, accessibility. Going up, we waited an hour for the PUJ to fill. Going back to the city, we had to cut our party short to make it to the last trip at 2:00 PM which we nearly missed. The trip back literally was a breeze with the PUJ almost flying, I decided to keep my eyes from the blur of trees we passed by rather than risk losing lunch.
