Hello Hivers! It's me again, back with another blog about our Bohol trip. I'm not a professional photographer, so bear with me as I did my best to capture my fascinating first out-of-town trip. Hopefully, you'll feel a bit of enjoyment through my blog!
I forgot to tell you that this blog is not perfect as every travel blog you've read, I just want to share to you our experiences during this travel and what can you expect in that particular tourist spot you wish to know more.
Before we arrived at the warm rest house of my uncle's relatives, he encouraged us to make a quick detour to the nearby tourist spot along the way to our destination. Mind you, this is the day that we arrived in Bohol, so even though we are exhausted from our sea travel, we are all for it. After all, we don't know if we can get another chance to go there. So, with my brother as the driver and also the one who finds our place to explore, we made our way to our first stop in this adventure.
Our first destination was Sagbayan Peak in Bohol. When you first entered the place, it was a bit worn down as it showed a shadow of its former radiant. Some areas are abandoned, but we didn't care about that and enjoyed our moment together.
The name of the peak greeted us as we entered, and beside it was a T-rex statue. My parents and nephews are busy snapping some photos around, while I was wandering around to check if there was a nice place to seek an adventureous moment.
Sagbayan Peak has a mini park perfect for kids to run around, but unfortunately we visited at the wrong time. The weather was not in good condition, so my nephews were not able to explore and play around that area. We were able to recharge upstairs, as they had a little restaurant that offered some yummy delicacies. Though it was really pricey, we were able to stuff our tummies. You can enjoy the cozy air around as you eat in their little resto, it was really nice to sit and just sip a coffee if you want to and lost track of time.
When we also go to the top of the peak, we are able to see a really nice viewing spot where you can get a glimpse of the famous Chocolate Hills. It might not be the main tourist spot, but the sight shows the rolling hills in the distance, and it was really breathtaking. If you will imagine it you can have it as kisses chocolate or toblerone, just to thinking of it made me feel hungry.
We didn't take too long to explore Sagbayan Peak and proceeded to continue our road trip, going to the home of my uncle's relatives. After the long journey, we were able to take a rest and recharge our energy, as more adventures awaited us in Bohol. It was a long night, and the house was quiet as the moon showed itself. The next day, with the sun smiling in the sky, it gives us spirits to continue our adventure. We made a quick stop at the Shiphaus in Batuan, Bohol. This attractive tourist spot shows a house designed like a ship and is fascinating to look at from the outside. Even though we didn't go inside, we made sure that we took a few snaps of photos for remembrance. Sometimes the unexpected stops in the journey will make the day memorable.
If you ever find yourself having a bad day or feeling down, I suggest that traveling will always help you out.
Sagbayan Peak in Bohol is a perfect place to lift your spirit or a place to shout out your inner pain. It has a calm spot, away from the crowd, a place where you can breathe fresh air and allow nature to amuse you. Though this is not the original Chocolate Hills, you can still see the natural beauty of Bohol, which is the small brown hills.
Life is hard, and we tend to face our battles individually. But remember that nature's abundance is healing to your mind and soul; it allows you to seek inner peace and protect your mind from distressing happenings in life when we need it the most. Whether you're alone or with a companion, exploring the beauty of nature will always open your heart to purity and positivity. Time is passing quickly, so as long as you still have it, enjoy the moment and wander around. Let nature show us what we are capable of.
