tripping in bataan

found myself with a few free days all of a sudden, and decided to go on a road trip to bataan, with luc in tow...

on the way to mariveles, we passed by sisiman - a quaint little fishing village that we used as a location for a teleserye i worked on a few years ago. i've never seen it from this view though....


or at this time of the day... pretty :)


i loved this lone tree up a hill in Sisiman. it looks like a tree that poets would write about...


it also could look like a scene from a creepy movie....


what to do in bataan? day one, hit the beach! we took a 20-minute boat ride to Lusong beach... where there are lots of coconuts and trees to chill at one of the huts....




day two: don't waste all that sunshine and blue skies! trek to papaya river on mt. tarak!


yes! i took luc trekking for a total of 5 and a half hours! and he was amazing!!! i never had to carry him, he navigated around the trails so well. he would walk way ahead of me but would stop every so often to look back and check if i was still there :) he's a natural! i was oh so proud of my little mountain dog :)



here he is resting on a rock (with a big smile!) heehee


we finally reached papaya river! where he tried to swim too :)





on our way back down the trail, we stopped to take in the view from the mountain...


luc on the pretty grass trails near the bottom, walking and resting, and catching some sunlight through the trees...




that perfect day was ended with a perfect rainbow!



luc seemed to like the rainbow too....



or was it the carabaos? haha! his first encounter....


til our next adventure! :)
