Baler Adventure: A Quick One!

Last two weeks ago was the first out of town adventure of the Hernandez Sisters (in their 50s and 60s)! Their first one was at Baler.




They say that one of the best deals in travelling is to travel in groups. That time they were around more than 10 pax and they got a great deal for their van and accommodation (spent more or less 2k).

Baler is approximately 8 hours travel time from Laguna. They left Laguna at 4am and them arrived there at around 12 noon. I could only imagine how hard it is for them to sit for 8 hours but they did it and I am proud of it!


While in Baler, they would not miss stopping by and taking some pictures along the way. This was the famous Diguisit Rock Formations.

Baler is known to be the famous for their waves and people (who loved to surf) really makes their way up to Baler to try their waves.
These sisters are not your typical surf buddies but are sure very fond of taking a lot of selfies and enjoying themselves.

The place where they stayed was just near the beach and so they have easy access to swim, rest, take pictures and then rest again.



As they are already in Baler, they would definitely not miss the famous Old Balete Tree.



Now on to the main attraction of this park!
This Balete Tree is a 600 years old tree -- they also call it the "Millenium Tree" mainly because of its age. They say that it would take 60 men to encircle the entire trunk of the tree -- that's a very huge trunk to imagine!




They also went to the famous Hanging Bridge in Baler.
I wonder if they crossed the entire hanging bridge. Hmmm..


Going back to the hotel and beach, there they did a lot of fun in the sand and a lot of resting. Come take a look!






I think that was an exciting 2 days, 1 night in Baler!
Then for their dinner -- they went and had a dinner blast in Ambula Kapampangan Cuisine in NLEX

I know the sisterakas enjoyed their adventure.
I hope there would be more!

Xoxo
