Beautiful beach.

Warning: Image heavy entry

24 April 2006 • Day 2 (or, how we spent Marnie's birthday)


Beautiful, beautiful beach! Clear, clear water! We could see the Bangui wind farm from here.


Early afternoon dip. Kebs ang init! Hehe.


Enough of the photo ops! Tara na!


Ready to conquer the South China Sea.


Troy joined in. Finally. He's got a kick-ass waterproof Pentax Optio.


Underwater photo! Ako naman! Hehe. The water here is not too salty. Hindi masakit sa mata masyado.


But goggles make swimming easier.


Ang gulo ng buhok ko. Gusto kong suklayin 'yung pic. :-P


We haven't had enough of the underwater shots just yet.


Natural jacuzzi.


Nakakasilaw!


Dead to the world.


Back at our beach front. These are rocks beyond the concrete riprap.


Sandy landscaping.

Soon after we went back to our room to freshen up for a late afternoon roadtrip.


We went to another part of the Pagudpud shoreline. This is at the Blue Lagoon resort where, according to Sel, the sand is better than Boracay's. (I couldn't tell, I have no basis for comparison.) We couldn't help but run barefoot here. :-) I wish we could stay here longer, but we had to leave so we could still see some sights while there's still daylight.


Patapat bridge. This goes on until Cagayan Valley.


Camera hoes. Hee. (n_n)


Dakkel a danum translates to "big water." Sabi ni Troy. Hehe.


This is Agua Grande. The water from the Agua Grande Mini-Hydro Power Plant across the street flows here.


We took a slightly scary walk to where the water flows.


Malakas ang agos ng tubig dito. The mountain water is very cold and fresh, and flows straight to sea.


May lamok sa left leg ko, ngayon ko lang napansin sa pic. Hehe.
