The Meet-Up

We still have hangovers on our Bukidnon adventure, yet we are already excited on our rafting after lunch. Hehe. We asked Kuya Boyet to drop us in SM mall as one of us needs to buy a pair of rubber slippers. We took our lunch here and wait for our contact person in Redrafts to pick us up.

Part2: Bukidnon-CDO-Iligan-Camiguin Trip Day1 - Ultralight Flying Plane Gecko Adventure in Del Monte Pineapple Farm!

Roadtrip to Bukidnon

Our first day started on our roadtrip to Bukidnon. We left the airport at 6am and arrived in Bukidnon's Del Monte pineapple farm around 7:30am.  If you're going to commute, I guess it will take you about 2hrs of travel, but because we avail Kuya Boyet's service (check part 1 of this blog for his car service information - http://adventurousfeet.blogspot.com/2010/11/part1-bukidnon-cdo-iligan-camiguin-trip.html ) we reached it much faster.

Part1: Bukidnon-CDO-Iligan-Camiguin Trip Day1 - Landing at Cagayan De Oro City

It's been a year and a half since I've been dreaming of visiting these places. It all started when I'm searching for beautiful falls that led me on wondering Iligan and then later on discovered the must-try adventure of white water rafting in Cagayan De Oro City.  Unexpectedly, it surpassed my expectations because it's a four-day trip that we managed to at least explore a bit of Bukidnon, Cagayan De Oro, Iligan, and Camiguin.  Sounds fun?  Definitely!

Part10: The Davao Experience - Hagimit Falls in Samal Island

At the heart of the island's district lies a beautiful destination not just for tourists but also a hit with the locals -the Hagimit Falls. This is our last stop in Samal Island, nonetheless, it is worthy and lovely.

Part9: The Davao Experience - Kaputian Beach Park in Samal Island

After the hidden Canibad Beach Cove exploration, we are set to go in the southern part of Samal Island. Because it's a long ride, our motorbike drivers/guides took a break and so we had a chance to check some overlooking somewhere along the highway.

Part8: The Davao Experience - Canibad Beach Cove in Samal Island

After some bat experience, off we go to see some public beaches here in Samal Island - Canibad Beach Cove and Kaputian Beach.

Part7: The Davao Experience: Monfort Bat Cave in Samal Island

Our first stop in Samal Island is the Monfort Bat Cave. There's a minimal entrance fee which is more or less Php 20.00.  This is not your usual caving experience that would go inside and explore.  What I enjoyed here is seeing lots of bats I haven't encountered in my life. Located in the upper part of the island, it can be reached by riding a motorbike (habal-habal) for commuters or through private vehicles.

Part6: The Davao Experience - The Guide to Samal Island

When you're in Davao, a place that one should not miss is the Samal Island. Also known as IGACOS or Island Garden City of Samal, it is famous for their pristine beaches, falls, and beautiful resorts.
