Leon Ilo-ilo

A trip that almost cancel, the first time I been to ilo-ilo this place was included but twice has been canceled so when i back in Ilo-ilo, this time I assure that I will visit this place. As another long weekend because August 27 declared by the government in observance to National Heroes Day. I planned ahead in this trip. First we are only 3 in a group, some of MIS staff have their own trip, praise convince some of them to join us in this trip so we become 7. We buy first our food in the new market of Jaro. Then we ride a jeep going to the town of Leon and it was an hour ride going to San miguel then from san miguel we ride a tricycle going to the jeepney terminal going to leon. first we wait for a jeep as some of the driver of habal-habal want us to ride them with a fare of 500 pesos but we insist that we will ride a jeep. After 30 minutes of waiting, a jeepney came. It took us 1 hr to reach the bucari. We go first to sition camandag where the Imoy falls located. It was 1 hour walked from jump off to sitio camandag. There was a 5 pesos registration fee from the brgy. after we register we go straight to the falls which took us another 10 minutes. I was remember how mitch cried when cross the hanging bridge. When we reach the falls, I started to cook our rice for our lunch, it was already past 1 in the afternoon. We took our lunch and rest for a while then we visit the bigger water falls which is 5 minutes walked from the cottage we were staying.

When we reached the bigger falls, next thing we did is to take picture, and take a dip in cold falling water. The group had really enjoy the place as each of us taking posed of our own.

After taking picute and dipping into the cold flowing water, we headed back to our cottage where saysay was still sleeping. We also took a dip into a little water falls but this time with a bigger current.

After relaxing and bonding with my colleague, we leave the place at about 4 PM and headed to our next destination. The Tabionan campsite, almost evening when we reach the tabionan campsite, everyone is tire and a good captain of the place offer us that if we would like them to cook for us and then we will just gonna pay them for our dinner.
