Mimbalot Falls: A view from the cable car

 

The sight that is worth the scare ^^





I braved the heights through a cable car.  The cable car does not look scary but when we were out in midair with wide open space below, i panicked for a moment.  Good thing the car is not capable of swaying when someone moves, so my panic mode was controlled.  I just took a deep breath and did not move my head to the left nor to the right.  I only move my left hand to take photos (on objects that i did not see nor placed focus).  I knew where was the direction of the falls so i just let the camera face there and click.  So the posted photos are the result.


The falls is 90 ft high and looks different when viewed from below and you look up.  This angle is above the falls at a distance and it can let you appreciate the beauty of the falls more. Mimbalot Falls is just a add on sight to be seen when you visit Paradise Resort in Barangay Buru-un.  (more posts of places visited during this trip will be posted in the coming days)  Am off to sleep now.  So tired with joint pains.

I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Iligan City Tourism office through Iligan Bloggers Society, this trip was made possible today.


This is just a teaser post of the activities we had today: The Tourism Triangle in a Day Series (Part I)?

Spring Fling in Seoul - Arriving at Yeouido Park

Image
The moment we saw this stair with cherry blossom art, I knew this is it.  I was excited to see what's out there to see.  And this is my first glimpse of the cherry blossom in a perfect spring day! I think this is a welcome stage of the festival, but I was somewhat disappointed because I expected the place to be really filled with CB trees.  The trees I can see a bit further was not enough to satisfy my imagination.  I thought ito lang... Then we were told that we have to leave now because this is not the real place.  The place is farther ahead.  The guys with Jacel walked so fast. Not really fast but their strides were bigger than ours.  Since I walked alone, not together with the other 3 ladies, I walked next to the guys. I tried to keep them in sight because I cannot imagine what would happen if I get lost in the crowd. The crowd was quite big. So much people because it was the first day or opening day of the festival. We have to walked a kilo

Surigao del Sur Escapade: Enchanted at The Enchanted River

Image
Yay after a year, it's like I am able to make a summary of our summer 2015 escapade in Surigao del Sur that covered The Enchanted River, Tinuy-an Falls, and the Britania group of Islands. I may forget some minute details but I will try to narrate what I can remember according to the pics posted here. Disclaimer : All photos used in this post are mine, unless stated otherwise . Before coming, I have heard a lot about Enchanted River.  I've seen it many times online (thanks to Google). Many times I have wished that one day, I will be able to see and feel its waters - and that one day happened in July 2015. After traveling the whole night, we arrived at HInatuan before six o'lock in the morning.  We were one of the few who were early birds. We thought we were the first but nah. Never mind though.  The important thing is that we arrived safe and sound and the drivers can take their rest and few hours wink. I feel our faces are puffy after the whole night trip b
