Waves Of Emotion

Chapter 9 Trip

Bella

We headed to our next destination; we decided to go up North. We drop each place that we want to explore; one of it is Baler, more or less 5 hours travel from Manila. We will stay here for a day in one of the hotels here. We head to Dicasalarin Cove, a privately owned beach that attracts tourists with its pristine waters and stunning white sand beach, a sweeping view of clear blue waters, fantastic rock formations and hilltops atop the lighthouse.

Wow, ang ganda dito, nakapakaganda ng view, look at the clear blue water, Mahal? Turo ko sa kanya.

Can you take me a picture in this side please? Pagsumamo ko sa kanya kasi marami na daw akong kuha na picture.

Why you girls like to take lots of pictures in just one pose and same location? What's the difference in every picture?

Off course there's a difference, kasi i will choose which one i will post in my i********:. I want the best pose and picture to be seen in my account.

We just take a lot of pictures there, barkada groupie shot and of course our photo together. Then we head to Ditumabo Falls, we do some trekking, pass some stony paths, wooden bridges, cross the river, it’s a nature adventure that we mostly love as a group.

Be careful on your step, there's a lot of stone here, you might be slip. Marco give me a warning kasi na excite na ako ng naririnig ko na ang tunog ng tubig sa baba.

After few walks we are welcome by the refreshing water and cascading waterfalls. Sobrang saya namin naligo sa falls. I was accompanied by Marco, the whole time he was just there, holding me and guiding me.

Wow sobrang ganda; yun lang nasasabi ko sa aking nakikita, namamangha sa natural beauty ng kalikasan at malamig ang lugar, presko sa pakiramdam.

Come on picture muna tayo dun; saad ni Rylie

Girls di pa kayo nagsawa sa pagkuha ng pictures? Marami na kayong pictures di na kasya sa phone nyo: natatawang saad ni Jetro.

Wow, I so love the place, wala akong pakialam sa picture taking nyo, dito na ako. Nagdive na sya sa tubig.

Hoo, sobrang lamig ng tubig.sana may ganito sa Manila, parang ayaw ko ng umalis dito; sigaw ni Jet

Oo nga, ganito ang lugar na gusto ko, tahimik nature lang. Wow, ang swerte ng taga dito; sabi naman ng Javer.

Kahit may ilan na andito naligo same sa amin pero parang feeling namin pag-aari namin ang lugar. Nang papalubog na ang araw, umalis na kami kasi mahirap na abutan kami ng gabi dito, mahirap ang daan.

We woke up early morning for our next destination which is Pangasinan. We had a lot of places to go here; one of the tourist attraction here is the Hundred Islands National Park in Alaminos, it has 123 islets scattered across Lingayen Gulf, we book an island hopping tour to bring us each places. That's really amazing experience we had there.

While we are touring around Hundred Island, somebody called Marco out of nowhere, so we look around to see who's that person's calling.

Hi Marco, it's nice to see you here; usal ng babae looking marahot at maarti. Iniwan niya ang mga kasama niya, just to approach us.

Hello Rose, funny to see you here too, anong ginagawa niyo dito? Marco ask out of courtesy.

I'm with my friends, we are on a trip. I saw na nakipagbiso biso pa siya kay Marco, seems they knew each other pero di ko siya kilala.

Ah we are too, together with my friends, this is my girlfriend Bella, the rest are my barkadas; pakilala ni Marco sa akin at mga kaibigan namin sa kanya at nakita ko ang pag-ismid niya ng binanggit ni Marco na girlfriend niya ako. Does she likes Marco? I'm just thinking.

Guys, this is Rose kapitbahay namin; balik pakilala sa amin sa babae, ah yun pala just a neighbor.

May pupuntahan pa kayo sama nalang kami sa inyo para enjoy: she says it like she really want to be with us.

Girl marami kang kasama alangan naman you will ditch them just to go with us, for sure may sarili kayong itinerary for this trip; supla kong saad sa kanya at di siya nakapagsalita.

We go from there then sumakay na kami ng sasakyan to our next destination.

I don't like the way you acted there, it's rude Bella; saad ni Marco and looking at him now he is piss with me, di niya nagustuhan ang ugali ko.

Nairita kasi ako sa kanya, umismid sa akin ng ipakilala mo ako, she's acting like wala siyang kasama at kung makakapit sayo parang pang-aari ka niya, di man lang niya napansin na her boyfriend is looking so mad at you.

Kahit na, you should say it in gentle way, may pinag-aralan ka Bella, you don't need to go with their level.

I am so sorry, di ko na uulitin yun, i got jealous lang din. Sige na peace na tayo, wag ka ng magalit sa akin; paawa ko sa kanya then i saw his smiling again at me. That's how Marco is he won't tolerate my bratty attitude.

We head to Enchanted Cove in Bolinao, it's good place to cool off from a hot day tour, the water is so clear and the fresh water is so cool, it’s nice to dip into the water all day. We decided to camp for a night in one of the camping grounds to stay for a night.

Mahal, I just realize na marami pa talaga na hidden wonders dito sa atin na di pa natin na explore noh? Ang ganda ng lugar, nakakamangha; dreamy kong saad kay Marco after sa trip namin ngayong araw.

Yeah, kaya bago tayo mangarap pumunta ng ibang bansa why not try muna sa sariling atin, mas makatulong pa tayo sa income ng lugar; sagot ni Marco while we are laying in our camping tent. We are safe naman here, its design for tourist and free.

Early morning we head again to our next place in our bucket list which is Batanes, saka na kami babalik ng Baguio, that would be our last destination.

Heading to Batanes is a long drive but worth the time, winding road with breathtaking view on the side.We appreciate the beauty of Batanes, the stunning landscape of nature, scenic water and terrain view, clean environment and peaceful laid back vibe, iyan ang impression ko sa Batanes while looking at the view outside while we are driving.

Hoo, the view is perfect, nakadagdag ng energy kahit na long drive; saad ni Marco while we are both looking ahead sa aming dinadaanan. Busy ang mata namin sa labas, every place is worth the sight.

Mahal, ito yong place na gustong gusto kong balikan, nakapaganda at tahimik, sarap tumira dito, sabi ko kay Marco.

Marami kaming napuntahan buong barkada, enjoy lang kaming lahat.

Look at all the pictures I’ve got, it’s a postcard-perfect view; saad ni Inah

Yeah sakin din, sobrang ganda, di ako nagsisi na pumunta tayo dito, at least once in our life we see this kind of beauty; Rylie commented.

Totoo talaga na ma-compare mo sa New Zealand ang look at vibe, kasi I have seen a pictures of New Zealand from my cousins na andun, parang ganito lang; Javer says.

I really like the view in Chawa View Deck, Rakuh A Payaman, Chamantad-Tinyan Viewpoint at Tahid Lighthouse, so breathtaking; sabi ko sa kanila, all are scenic view of nature.

Yeah the unspoiled beauty and peaceful lifestyle; iyan ang isa sa nagustuhan ko dito; saad ni Marco while we are preparing our tent to camp in the tourist camping ground. Dito kami matutulog ngayong gabi before heading back to Baguio tomorrow.

We cook our food here as we brought some stuff na pang travel.After eating the boys decide to have a beer while we are talking at kami ladies drink lang. We are busy discussing of what we had experience in the past, our friendship and what to do next in our life as a responsible adult. Mga career na tatahakin namin. And isa sa aming napag-usapan is to do some travelling every now and then as a group, maybe outside the country soon but we had to travel first around the Philippines, there’s so much to explore here.
