Subic '10

The Nightingale company invited my family as a special guest to their Subic getaway! This Subic trip was different because we went trekking instead of the usual banana boat ride/night party/zoobic etc. I actually didn't know that we were going to trek so i was wearing slippers the whole time which made the whole thing harder and more challenging. I slipped a lot of times and almost fell on the ground. It was more of a time-with-nature kind of trip, which i actually liked. Gotta love the environment and the trees were just really REALLY big. Our tour guide for the trekking was an aeta and she was already 52 years old. She told us the different uses of the trees found in that forest or whatever you call that place. She actually also told us stories about the trees (e.g balete)...but i dont know if she just made that up or what haha. Then she made us straws and cup out of bamboo. The way she made em was fascinating like it only took her a minute to make a cup. After the trekking we had lunch and we used banana leaves as plates. It was a very educational trip and I got to exercise.
