It’s been a while was sweating bullets with a few of those inclines, lol. Get out there and live it up, hear the wind blowing through the trees and take in fresh air when you can

Banaue and Batad Rice Terraces were totally rad! OMG so cool! I hiked around the town of Banaue (bottom picture) and its rice terraces, every local said “hi!” and “where are you going?” to me. I stayed at Greenview Lodge and met a great company: Ruth, Rachel, and Adrian from Ireland and Jasmine and Thomas from Poland. Awesome peeps!

We all took a jeapney together to Batad which was the craziest off-road-quality kind of ride I’ve ever had! We all agreed that it felt more like taking a ride in Disneyland than real life: our jeapney loaded with tourists and their backpacks including a roof full of Poles, Germans, and Irish riding like a race car on a steep dirt-and-boulders road with a very very steep cliff on one side and a wall on the other. After 3 months of traveling I wasn’t even fazed, just fascinated that we lived.

We hiked into Batad and then to a waterfall with a local lady-guide. Awesome waterfall, crazy-steep hike! It was like a stair-master the whole way; I kept telling to myself it was good for my butt. I stayed at Simon’s guesthouse (200 Php) with an amazing view out my window. Great day of badass action!

Today I hiked with a local guide down from Batad to the main “road” and took a local suicide-bus back to Banaue. Thank goodness I had my awesome guide carting my 13 kilo backpack, I almost killed myself on that steep slippery hike today. My knees are angry at me. What a great sunny day!

Tonight I’ll ride the night bus back to Manila. I can’t wait.

At 9200 frozen feet Zapata Falls is worth the moderately rugged but short hike. Snowmelt from the mountains creates the waterfall. I’m not sure if crawling on the ice to reach it was more or less difficult than (alternatively) having to wade through a torrid stream…but that’s what I did…I crawled on a lot of ice.
