Bicol Inspection Trips!!!!!

Wow!! It has been a great week! I had the opportunity to roam and see different places around Bicol.

10 pm on January 10, we started riding out to Naga City. At first, we thought that there would be 2 buses to accommodate us at the said trip, but frustration struck us when we saw just one bus, one van (starex), and one pickup. Some of my friends decided to stay at the starex van. It will be too much crowded if we are to ride the bus.

Hours had passed and still darkness enveloped the roads from manila, to quezon province, to bicol area region. There we had a few stopovers for leak breaks and food breaks, but still it took us 13 hours to get to the Sampaguita hotel at Naga City (near Sm City Naga). At that day, everyone was exhausted, and the organizers of the trip decided to cancel our trip for that day.

Next day we had a busy time. We toured around the city and later entered several companies such as Coca Cola Bottlers, Sunwell, and many more. After that, we drove straight to Magayon Hotel (no comment).

The next 2 days we toured around some companies and some plant such as the Geothermal Plant in Tiwi, Bicol, Nat-Geo Park, Philvolcs, and many more. We really had a great time even though everyday was far more stressful that we had imagined.

The last day was one of the greatest. We had a chance to get to cagsawa ruins (is ths right?) and see the mayon up close (like in the postcards scattered around the country). We bought souvenirs and had fun in an open beach!! Wow!

Thursday 7 pm, we started driving back to manila. It was not as tiring as the first drive because it just took us around 6 to 7 hours to arrive at sampaloc, manila.

WE had fun, and we had a lot of souvenirs and i mean a LOT... Thanks to all the persons who supported my trip financially.
