Tinago Falls

By , January 28, 2012 7:01 pm

It was in August last year that I visited Tinago falls last. It was a memorable trip going there because I was with my new found friends – the Iligan Bloggers Society.

When I long for an adventure within my hometown, Tinago flash in my mind right away. But one thing I can never do no matter how bored my life is, I can’t go down there alone. :) It’s scary for me. I dunno if any woman out there would dare to go there alone, but me, no am not. Good thing, I have some photos that reminds, I was there sometime. :)

Blessed with So Much Blue Skies

By , October 22, 2011 6:31 pm

Yesterday afternoon, I went to the city after work.  The sun was still high that the view of the sky from the post office looks glorious amidst the complexity site of wire and ends.  As I often mentioned, I love sky photos.  I always feel that light tug in my heart when I behold the vastness of the skies.  When I look up, It makes me forget that am thinking of unhappy thoughts or many worldly cares.

Here’s a couple of shots made yesterday afternoon:

I just love the blue skies with it’s fluffy white clouds.  I always pride the sunny weather of the Philippines but at times I really don’t enjoy the sun on my skin.

Speed!

High Speed!

Beware!

I will never dare this!

To me, this is the most scariest ride I witnessed the other night night, but it is one of the rides that has a long queue of people.  I then commented, people really love to feel the thrill of anything that is dangerous.  I cannot imagine myself going into this ride. The speed is so much that I wonder if the people standing with hands on the rails do breath while ride goes spinning and spinning.

Ann and I went to MUGNA last night to see the place.  It was the last night before the city fiesta so there were lots of people.  I have never been to Mugna before and this was my first time.  Thanks to the invitation of Kuya Levi, I was determined to see their store at the Mugna.  Indeed his store is one of the most crowded corner in the whole of the area.  They sell products that are not common in Iligan, so that explains why people come to buy his goods.

Today is the big day of the Diyandi celebration in honor of the Catholic church patron Saint Michael so I am sure that the place will be full of people.  I am thinking of going there later in the day, but if the plan of quick trip to Marawi will push through then I doubt.  But I will try.

Off to Tinago Falls & Maria Christina Falls w/ IBS Members

By , August 7, 2011 12:12 am

The Iligan Bloggers Society in cooperation with the City Tourism will be going out on a Familiarization Tour tomorrow.  I don’t have a detail list of the places we are going to visit but surely we will be going to Tinago Falls and Maria Christina Falls.

I’ve already been to this places.  Twice in Tinago and I many times in Maria Christina Falls.  The only difference this time is that, I will be going with new found Iligan friendships.  Thanks to blogging or else I will never be able to meet and hangout with my IBS friends.

The last time i was at Maria Christina was last year when the ACSCU-AAI came to revisit for the Level II accreditation of the School of Nursing.

I’d like also to join this opportunity because as an Iliganon by blood, it seems it must be a must to be familiar with the places that will showcase the hospitality of the Iligan people.  All my life, i’ve grown in this city, but there are still many places in this city – far and near that I never ever set foot yet.  So, I am happy that this group, the IBS schedules trips like this and if I am available, I promise that i’ll surely tag along.

We have a good weather these days (no rain) and that also means the temperature is very high even before mid day.  So to protect my skin from the destructive rays of the sun, i might use the mineral foundation that a friend gave me. But I also want to look natural meaning not messy after a long hike, so i will see tomorrow what would really be my get up.

I am going to bed after this post because i have to get up early to prepare my food. We are going to eat our lunch in the NPC Nature Park –

over there…(pointing down to the right) ^^

I have a hard time looking for my Tinago Falls photos. It is just somehwere here but I don’t have much time to go through all my files.  Don’t worry tomorrow, I will be taking brand new photos — and surely I am going to share it with all of you.

Nice sunset in the horizon but it was showering.

I wish there were no web wires there so that i can have a perfect sillouette  of the church’ staple.  My daughter and went to one of the appliance center in the area to scout for TV. ;)

Greens at in and around Maria Christina Falls of Iligan City.
The water flowing down to the sea is from the falls.

 

Sorry for missing  1 week but am trying to catch up this week.

Summer is now high up here in Iligan and it’s a time i wish that we have lots of green around so that it would help moderate the temperature.

Yesterday, me and a couple of my friends were invited to do food judging of the Nutrition class.  They had it at Taytay Swimming Pool.  It was suppose to be at Timoga pool but all pools were close yesterday.  We were informed that they are close because someone died in the family and they are mourning.  Sunday is suppose to be a full day for all the string of pools in Timoga but this time, they redirected them to Maze Park.  We can already imagine the throng of people going to Maze Park.  Good thing the students decided to be at Taytay Pool.

Spring Pool

Looking at the greens gave me goosebumps.
Am sure it was cold.

The scene behind the main scene =)

Taytay is a very natural place with so much green to see and the water so clear and cool flowing down from the source.  This place is also near to the Nawasa Reservoir.

The weather was cool so me and my friends decided not to swim.  We can just feel the cold water by just looking at the pool.  The students were enjoying the water.

I look forward to next week for another group of green.

Taytay Swimming Pool is located in Mimbalot, Buru-on, Iligan City.

I am still on my third. I missed this last week when my week was super busy. Anyhow, let me share to you one of the beautiful nature shots i took that Thursday:

If you have time to visit Maria Cristina Falls in Iligan, this is not the usual view. Last Thurday afternoon, i went along the group that brought our visitors to see the falls and also Timoga Pool. We were so happy to have one of the right persons who can request for a full blast of the falls, so we had this view for 1 minute only. It was so nice.

It was a rainy afternoon when we went out there so the place was foggy. Good thing the fog did not cover majestic view of the water.
