Around Iloilo

Siyempre pa holiday na naman kaya we were out in the street, not to join a rally though but to have some fun. We woke up early than the usual para mas maganda sana kung maaga. But it started to drizzle, kaya we ended up stopping most of the time. By 7:30am we had our breakfast at Dumangas. This was the restaurant where the municipal mayor invited us before for lunch, (me with my boss). And it’s really “manamit” and “barato” pa. even if the waitress served us what we didn’t order, okay na rin kasi ubos din namin. After that, ayun nagkamali-mali pa kami ng daan to Banate. Natour muna ‘ata namin ang buong Dumangas.

Nevertheless, nakarating din kami sa beach. Mahirap nga lang na part kapag dalawa lang kayo. There’s nobody around to watch for our things. Buti okay naman to leave it in the restaurant. After two hours in the water, umahon na din kami and had a snack lang. we went to Barotac Viejo then. Ayun, we didn’t reach San Rafael, I was just dying even then to took pictures of its mountain ranges. Kaya lang natakot kami kasi in the midst of the afternoon sun parang kami lang bumabaybay sa kalsada. We left and our next stop was in Anilao, a small town too na kahit tanghaling tapat , wala man lang naglalakad-lakad sa kalsada sa mismong town proper.

We resume our journey again at this time medyo gutom na at we haven’t had our lunch. We stopped at Jo’s Chicken Inato in Jaro. Pareho kaming hindi chicken fanatic. But their roasted chicken is definitely worth eating. Of course, ‘yong buko halo-halo na talagang dinarayo sa kanila.

Tired and exhausted we were, we both ended up sleeping after we arrived. But it’s worth it naman. We are even looking forward to our next weekend
