journey to the womb of lahar


just to be different, i want to start this post with something historic and geographic. lol. Mt. Pinatubo is an active volcano which last erupted in 1991. four years after that, its crater was opened as a tourist destination with Capas, Tarlac as the main entry point. the Pinatubo crater is shared by three provinces, one is Tarlac and Pampanga and Zambales are the other two. 

"what a journey it has been," Riz describes our jaunt to the Mt. Pinatubo crater. indeed! God really made an effort to place the beautiful things He created somewhere where humans can't easily reach and destroy them. so before we got to the crater, we had to go through some tremendous amount of exhaustion and hunger (no breakfast and no baon to mumble).
