Day1: Sikatuna Park

Sikatuna Park

En route Loboc is Sikatuna. We’re supposed to go to Sikatuna Park but when I told the driver about it, he doesn’t know the place. We saw the signage going to Sikatuna Tree Park but the driver ain’t sure if it’s the park we’re referring to so we decided to move along until we reached the Sikatuna Municipal Hall and Sikatuna Church. It’s the spot which the driver thinks the attraction is, so no choice, we just took photo there. We asked him for us to go at Tree Park but he refused to. We went straight to Loboc Hilltop Cottage. The driver waited for us so he could drop us at the Loboc Adventure Park.

Day1: Abatan River and Mag-Aso Falls

Destinations for the first day:

- Abatan River

- Mag-Aso Falls

- Sikatuna Park

- Loboc Adventure Park

- Loboc Night Cruise

- Hilltop Cottage

Abatan River

On our way to Mag-Aso Falls, we had a stop for photos in the Abatan River. Its fabulous greens are composed of Nipa trees planted along the river. The Abatan River Livelihood Project offers a cruise but I think it would last for more than a couple of hours.





Mag-Aso Falls

I was in doubt if I have to include Mag-Aso Falls in our itinerary. I’ve received the e-mail regarding the flashflood happened there where two men died. But then I decided to include it believing God is our guide. I haven’t read in any of the blogs about Mag-Aso Falls that before reaching it, you have to go downstairs of about a hundred steep steps. Matet and Grace changed their pants so I thought we were going to swim. Since I’m wearing shorts, I immediately went to the water after taking some shots of the falls and of the foreigner couple who were swimming there. When my buddies finished changing clothes, I splashed them with water. To my surprise, they’re so resistant, telling me they are not going to swim. Hahaha. See, a result of miscommunication. =) The coldness of the water was so refreshing so as to the fresh coconut juice by ate’ng bakla.

Aerial Shots Going to Bohol

Tres marias – Matet, Grace and I. Off to Bohol. Approaching Bohol, we took some aerial shots – we were giggling with excitement and didn’t care about the people around us since 90% of the passengers are foreigners. We even fantasized of having our own islands someday…. Someday…..

We reached Bohol at 1:30pm. The weather’s pretty cool – not too hot but the sun’s welcomingly smiling, proudly greeting and warmly inviting us with the rest of the nature. Mang Topher, our driver seems to have waited us for hours. Hehe
