Catanduanes trip, part 1

Siguro ganito ang nasa isip ‘nyo, “Wala na bang ginawa itong si Ella kundi maglamiyerda tuwing weekend?” Opo, wala nga akong ginawa kundi maglakwatsa LOL
Nasabi ko minsan na bago ako lumagay sa tahimik (read: walk down the aisle), pipilitin kong malibot ang magandang Pilipinas. Mahirap po magbitbit ng bagahe habang naglalamiyerda (read: magbitbit ng bata). Wardrobe ko nga lang, ang bigat nang bitbitin eh, dagdagan pa ng anak, sus. So there.
Taga-Bicol si ama pero hindi ko pa nakikita ang Mayon volcano. At hindi pa rin ako nakakasakay sa Ro-Ro (Roll-on/Roll-off sea vessels). My trip to Catanduanes last weekend had a lot of firsts. This was an office affair kaya marami kami.
Part 1: Ro-Ro your boat, Muro-Ami kids and Mayon Volcano
Thursday: July 15; 13-hour bus ride
4pm: Left the office to go to Cubao RSL Bus Station
6pm: Left Cubao (Manila to Albay)
Friday: July 16

7am: Arrived in Tabaco Pier RoRo port, Tabaco City, Albay. Gutay-gutay na ang byuti ko sa 13 oras na biyahe sa bus pero syempre smile pa rin.

We saw little kids playing “climb the rope” on the side of the boat.

Is this an awesome game or what?

They asked us to throw coins in the water. We did and they quickly dived for them.

OMG! Muro-Ami kids? I wasn’t sure if it’s safe but we could see they are fantastic swimmers. Parang laro lang sa kanila ang sumisid sa dagat but still…they’re little children.

We saw Mayon Volcano from the port.

The sky was cloudy so the photos aren’t clear, but it was a perfect cone indeed.

A little closer…aah picture perfect talaga.

Tabaco to Catanduanes is a 2-hour boat ride. We should be in San Andres Port, Catanduanes, by 9 am
Next issue: Awesome beach of Twin Rock Resort
