Vacation Philippines 2008- Part 1





Just got back from our vacation.

One of the highlights of the vacation was a trip to Agno. We spent 3 days there with the whole family.

Agno is a town in Pangasinan, 7 hours drive from Manila. We stayed in one of the "jologs" huts there and relished the beach just a few steps away from our accommodation. Jologs because it does not offer luxury things other resorts has but just essentials- bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, dining/lounge area. Do not expect extra towels, slippers and the like... bring your own.

Coming from Manila, you can buy the best, crunchy bagnet in Camiling and seafood in Alaminos. Since we have to bring everything, even water, one truly advantage of this is we can cook whatever we want and enjoy.

There is a short hike that we did going up and see the whole beach and on the other side is a hidden white sand beach. Though we never got there, due to time constraints, just looking at it is enough to invite us to come back again.

The slideshow above is composed of pics taken by my friend/photographer Noel Galang.
