I got to Shell at around 5, and we climbed ontu the bus. Ms. Alberto was there, and so was Ms. Toli, who we later learned as at Shell at as early as 4 or so. :O We didn’t really leave on schedule, because as usual, there were late comers. Guia, Mary, Reg and Bea didn’t come with us tho. >_<
*(L to R) Ms. Toli, Kuya OJ, Kuya Alex* We got to visit one of their churches before we joined our other batchmates. Instead of a priest, they have a priestess. Coolness. XD
*Makaryo Sakay Plaque thingie* So we walked a bit, and the hiking began. Oh man, can anyone say moss laden rocks? It was quite a trip upwards. *Hiking up! D:* Then we ended up at this shed, and we had to take our shoes and socks off. I noticed a hole at one side of the shed, and I looked down it. *Husgado Exit* And lo and behold, Gretchen popped out! XD Turns out it was the exit of the Husgado cave, where we were going. So we had to hike down barefoot to the entrance of Husgado. It’s said that if you can get through the cave without a scratch, then seven years of your sins will be forgiven. It sounds easy, but the cave was tiny. As in, you literally had to crawl through it. :P Luckily, there were candles, but still I sometimes lost my way. So I asked one of the guides in the small cave, “Erm, where’s the path?” and then he’d point to this tiny hole and say “There.” And I’d be like “…There?” XD Gawd, that was fun.
So after Husgado we had to climb up this mountain like hill to Kalbaryo. *White Dots = Batchmates* I think it was 2.7 km above sea level. :O Man. What a hike. Was worth it tho. Half way tho we met up with Cai, who was having an asthma attack. >_< *Halfway Rest* We pushed on though, and we finally reached the top. We ate lunch under the cross there, and it started to rain. They say that it was a blessing. I loved the rain.
*Lunch at Kalbaryo* *The View* *The View 2*
We started downwards after that. We sang songs of the 90’s on the way. :P We reached a new location, which symbolized a gate where pilgrims entered to get to the sacred place of Mt. Banahaw. We continued on to a new place, this time it was a flat rock that looked like a log book. Supposedly, you write the names of those you love, and they will go to heaven. I wrote a lot. Haha. :P I also saw a rock with something nice written on it. *The Truth*
On the way home… I fell asleep. XD But everyone was being so gay and noisy I eventually woke up. :P Ah yes, I still have pics of that. XD We had another stop over, and I could barely stand. >_< But it was so fun. I’ll never forget it.
Oh-weh-oh-weh-oh-weh-oh-weh-ah! To the wilderness!
