mt. pinatubo adventure pt. 1

it's adventure time once again, folks. and this time, it's on to mt. pinatubo for yours truly along with a bunch of friends last 21 november.

let me set the mood for adventure with this couple of videos i took while on the 4x4 ride to the drop-off point. with all the excitement packed in these videos (which is prolly the understatement of the century), i'm sure you'll feel like you're with us. lol.

i'm not that much of a tour guide in the vids, so lemme share a few facts about this trip first. the 4x4 ride we had takes about one hour to the jump-off point via skyway. this is the new route which takes us on a longer ride on the 4x4 and cuts the trek to the crater by an hour and a half (30 minutes na lang), depending on the person's speed. but i'm getting ahead of myself. longer write-up on this coming soon. for now, just click play and enjoy!

word to the wise: better turn down the volume first. ;p


can you still handle it? then hit play! :D




coming soon: another vid and lotsa pics. ;-)

  10. I went to Pinatubo last April 2009 (http://www.blogalag.com/blog/2009/04/my-mt-pinatubo-adventure.html) although for our trip, we took the longer route. Ang saya di ba? :D

    Will wait for your next post on your Mt. Pinatubo trip!

  14. dyosa: super saya nga! read your account. hopefully next time i can visit, i can try the longer route. so that means i have to exercise! haha :D

    kuri: punta ka na rin. best time to travel mga ganitong panahon kasi walang tao halos. :)

    backpacking philippines: they don't allow overnight stays from june-december coz of the rains. but i hope i can also have the chance to stay there overnight. someday. :)

    lawstude: same with your posts, parang narating ko na ang buong pilipinas. :D punta ka na ng pinatubo. :)
