@neng, next bakasyon. pagplanuhan na yan!

@sweetskittle, dunno. nung nadaan naman kamis a Banaue, ok lang naman. ung sa Sagada (where the pic was taken) mas maganda!

@gari, pati sa balat malamig pag nandun ka. :)

i read somewhere that the banaue rice terraces is the only wonder of the world that was built by free men (as opposed to slaves' creating the pyramids in egypt, the great wall, the hanging garden...etc!)

another reason for us to be proud!

GRABENG DAMING PATO.

na kulay brown na iyung terraces pag hapon.

great pic. and agree with bry.

@bryan, yeah! proud pinoy here!

@erik, ung friend ko nabanggit na yung Lagawe pero ndi ko alam kung nadaanan namin o ndi. Baka summer kayo napunta kaya tuyo ung mga pananim.

Patong quack-quack?! Hmmm. Maingay siguro sila. Baka naman pagawaan ng balut yun.

Sakay ka papunta Baguio. Hanap mo sa Baguio yung Dangwa Bus Station. Tapos sakay ka bus papunta Sagada. Pagdating mo Sagada arkila ka ng guide at jeep papunta dun sa Kiltepan look-out point.

ako rin gusto ko pumunta dyan.

sa pagkakaalam ko mystery pa rin hanggang ngaun ang pagkakagawa ng rice terraces na yan. kaya nga itinuturing yan na 8th wonder of the world. they still can't figure out kung pano ginawa ng katutubo ang napakaganda at napakagaling na art work na to!
