Dahilayan Adventure Park in Bukidnon

Day 2:
We arrived at Balingoan Port past 9am and kuya Edwin was patiently waiting for us. Maalon kasi that time kaya ang tagal ng ferry. According to kuya Edwin, it will be approximately 2 1/2 hours travel time from the port to Bukidnon. Borlogs muna ko sa byahe.Nagising na lang ako malapit sa giant pinya sa Del Monte plantation. Dumaan kami sa malaking farm ng pinya and nagtake ng pictures sa gilid ng kalsada.



Grabe un daan papuntang Dahilayan, rough road na pataas pa. Pagdating sa Dahilayan, madami ng tao. Ang ganda ng place! Ang daming pine trees at feeling ko nasa Baguio ako. Pila na kami sa bayaran ng ziplines. Since kahat kami brave.. hehe! We availed the 3 ziplines which cost 600 php.


Nagpalagay na kami ng harness, and started the two ziplines na nakasitting position.
 Napasigaw pa ko sa 1st zipline, kasi feeling ko babangga ako sa mga pine trees. After that, I enjoyed the ride. The first two was so sisiw! hahaha! yabang! Masaya talaga pag madami kayo nagzizipline. After sa end point ng two ziplines, nagpicture taking muna kami habang nagpapahinga. Mataas na naman kasi ang aakyatin.
Then we headed to the starting point to put helmets for the last zipline. We waited for the ride going up to the hill for the longest zipline. Nung nakita ko kung gaano kataaas at kahaba yung zipline medyo kinabahan ako. Ang zipline pa lang na mataas na nasubukan ko is yung nasa Circulo Verde. Napatili ako paglaunch sa akin sa zipline pero ang sarap ng feeling after that. I should have use my camera to capture some videos. Next time talaga magdadala ako ng maliit na cam. Gusto ko na tuloy bumili ng flip.

see how high it is?! di ba indi kita ang endpoint.
kinakabahan na ko nyan
pero nakuha ko pang ngumiti sa camera.. hahaha!

photo credits to sheng...tenchu so much!
After the ride gusto ko pang umulit kaya lang mahal weh.. hahaha! Next time ulit or sa bohol try ko yung suislide and plunge. Everyone had fun and nakakahigh ng feeling if you conquered some of your fears.
otd: shorts from bench, blouse from penshoppe, bracelet from the beadshop
Gusto ko pa sana itry ang zorbing kaya lang sa taas ulit yun. Gutom na din kami  kaya hindi na lang. We headed back to CDO pero we stopped at the giant pinya to take some pictures. Hindi kumpleto ang bukidnon trip kung walang kuha sa giant pinya.

We chose E-Philippines Travel and Destinations to organize our trip in CDO-Bukidnon-Camiguin because it offers the cheapest fee for a 3 destination trip.
