Today we went to Caliraya. My groupmates stayed for UPC. However, tonight I received no notification. So I guess my prayer wasn't granted. That means we have to pay a lot.
Anyway Caliraya is fun! We woke up 4:30 AM, left home around 5:30 then ate breakfast at chowking in cubao and left for laguna at 7:30. We arrive at the terminal-ish around 10:30 and then rode a tricycle and arrived there at 11:30. Alnost 12 actually. Anyway we met with my mother's friend's family (the daughter is my brother's batchmate) and we tried the zipline hanging bridge, kayak, paddle boat, and swimming. To be honest it wasn't much of an activity place as it is to wind up. A lot of activities were unavailable, actually.
Here's a video of the zipline:
The scenery is lovely, as the hotel overlooks the golf course below and the mountain ranges in the far end. The other viewing deck beholds the dam and faces the afternoon breeze. The air is clean here; no colloidal dust can be seen as the sunrays beam through the ephemeral spots in the clouds above then through the gaps in the leaves below, casting a sharp shadow on the soft loamy soil. I really like the tranquility and serenity of the place, with all the chirping birds and crowing crows and crickets and perhaps partially owing to the fact that it is just us here in the resort. It's not as nature trip as banahaw but it's also nice, having a resort all to yourselves.
I also tried darts and I'm getting the hang of it. But I only hit the inner ring, not the bullseye. I need more practice.
I fell asleep rather quickly. I am a bit tired because I paddled in both the kayak and the paddleboat and I practiced kicking in the swimming pool. And I also saw a horse earlier and I took a fairy tail-esque picture of it. And here it is.
