We’re so glad that electricity was back to normal so we can take a bath any time of the day. (kung kelan pauwi na, hehehe!) Since this is not a hotel, we had to wait for the staff to open the lobby so we could check-out. While waiting, we just ate cup noodles and we planned to eat breakfast at Masferre Country Inn and Restaurant but unfortunately, closed sila.
Waah! We did not expect this na sarado lahat so we have no choice but to continue with our journey. We cannot afford to wait because it will take 11 to 12 hours before we reach home. Going back to Manila is not easy because of the fog and drizzle. It was so cold that I cannot even feel my fingers.

Yehey, we had our chance to take a photo with the Highest Point Marker. Walang kaagaw at mga tulog pa tao. Hehehe! Smile kahit nanginginig na kami sa sobrang lamig. There is a mini sari-sari store here so we ate balut.
Highest Point Marker is situated in Atok, Benguet, this highway is 7,400 feet above sea level and it is the highest altitude highway in the Philippines. You will see this if you choose the Hanselma Highway route or Mountain Trail.
Check the video of Hanselma Highway here.
We had a quick stop at Good Shepherd, ube jam is our favorite so we will not go home without buying one. Drive thru for our lunch and we met my brother in the church so we could pick up our gifts.
After 11 hours and 30 minutes, finally, we’re home. This is the longest land travel that we have experienced, lahat na yata ng expressway dinaanan namin. TPLEX, SCTEX, NLEX and SLEX. Hmmm, carry na rin kaya namin ang pa-Bicol.
Day 1 in Sagada
Day 2 Echo Valley Walking Tour and Sumaguing Cave

Where to Eat in Sagada
Surely a trip with a family will always be cherished. Even if our first option seems not possible (in your case sarado pala), there will always be new plans that will emerge but in time the disappointment will vanish because again, you are with people you love.
ReplyDeleteAgree, it is one thing that you learn when you travel, expect the unexpected. hehehe! And sometimes those things make the trip more memorable.
DeleteNapangiti ako, nadaanan nyo nga lahat ng expressway! haha! But wow at the fog! Ako, mabilis ako lamigin kaya for sure kung andito ako, punong puno din ako ng balot sa katawan. That was a long trip, no? And the rainbow is AWESOME! ♥ nice shot!
ReplyDeleteang ganda talaga ng bansa natin! wala tatalo! I hope to visit Sagada too- someday!
