Sunday Nature Trip

I was a bit frustrated for I wanted to see the sun rise over the mountains. But we had a slow start so the sun was already rising when we were still in the house.

We traveled anyway and seemed to waste gas along the way.

As we did so, we saw lush green mountains, which were a part of the Sierra Madre Mountain Range, said to be the longest mountain range in the country.

The roads started to twist and turn as we burned fuel. I don’t really mind, we were enjoying the scenery.

Oh no! It is starting to rain. How will I take photos? How will we have our outdoor breakfast?

We didn’t get our outdoor picnic breakfast. I wasn’t able to take the photos I wanted but we got this:

Nature really is full of surprises :)

We also went to another wonderful place not frequented by people but that would be for another post.

(There was a nasty accident involving a motorcycle rider before or after that turn in the second photo. The ride was really in bad shape and the rider was lying along the road with his fellow riders. I hope he is ok. There have been a lot of motorcycle-related accidents in this area I am wondering they weren’t banned from going this way. They could get  really fast on these twisties and tend to overdrive and have accidents. I shudder thinking about this when my husband rides with his buddies to this place.)

    I’m sorry you didn’t get to have an outdoor breakfast picnic… Your photos are nice Miss Julie, don’t fret, you’ll have another chance to snap photos in the future. :)

    Thanks, Z, I hope we could come back on a not-so-rainy day. :)

    That was in Tanay, Cookie. Just go straight Marcos Highway, past the Cogeo market until you reach the mountains and on the highest level, you can find that place. They have rooms where one can stay overnight.

    On the highest level talaga ha? mostest highest level?? :))

    Ang ganda naman! malapit lang pala. How many minutes from QC?

  6. greenbucks on 16 Sep 2008 at 7:32 am

    Oo, most highest level ito :D

    Not sure how many minutes, depends upon the three bottlenecks. It is best though to go there very early, marami lang motorcycles on the way.

    Type nyo pumunta? I can give you the directions if you want. Picnic tayo dito :)
