Mt. kawa kawa
Ligao City
Bicol (Albay)
I was so happy to spend that special day with my family. My dad, jake (my brother), ate ai (my step mom), josh (step bro), jasmin (step sis), lola (mom of ate ai), biget and mosang (sisters of ate ai), laizel.. maye and joseph (my bro and sis in faith) were also with us. Before we headed to bed, we've watched some DVDs.. kuya called but i regret that ive missed it since i was out for a while when the phone rang.
About 10 am, ems arrived in our house. We went to kawa kawa and it was wonderful. It was my first time there.. kuya called again and finally, ive managed to answer... however i have not brought the charger so it was not a pretty long talk, and it was raining that time so i wasn't able to understand everything that he was saying, i almost thought that he was speaking a foreign language then haha. I miss him. Anyway, one year from now, he'll be with us.. looking forward to that.
When we were hiking, the sun was just hiding behing the clouds so there were no burns at all (sa skin hehe).. Thank God for giving us the shed until we finally reach the peek of the mountain. Amazingly, the clouds finally fell when we stepped inside former governor Gonzales' rest house. His assistants were so friendly that we have known a lot of trivias about the place:
- The area inside the so called "kawa kawa" is 6 hectares
- There is an area on the other mountain nearby that is being developed as a mini forest
- A cable car will be set up later next year
- With about 20,000 people in kawa kawa, there will be more spaces for thousands of people yet
- Ex-Governor Gonzales always go there to rest (amazing endurance indeed)
- The circumference of the kawakawa is almost 1 kilometer
- there will be a fireworks display on jan 4 at 7pm
- watch out for more developments! (haha....very friendly assistants indeed)
