Ciao Ifugao!

We left the inn an 11am. Had a take out lunch from McDonald's Solano and dropped by at Savemore to get some lacking stuff for our long vacation.

Then our journey to the Cordilleras began.
The road was alright... not steep not narrow, just alright. And everything was scenic. Trees adorn the verdant surroundings. perhaps, it's not like this during summer season.

We passed the towns of Lamut, Kiangan, Lagawe and several others I forgot to take down.

the two way road to Banaue

everything in green

Lamut, Ifugao

Kiangan

wowoweeee....Lagawe

We can't resist to stop when we the saw the approaching bridge crossing a river and a big rocky mountainside  just along the road.

the irresistible view

As HS drove, we noticed that we were gaining altitude. It began to rain and we scrambled outside to cover our luggage.Then there it was! The marker showing that we are now in Banaue.

After some turns along winding and confusing roads, we arrived at Banaue Homestay where we stayed for 4 nights.

Warm Welcome

Next post is our first day in Banaue and that scary trip to Batad.
