A Day in Badiangan in Ajuy, Iloilo




Mountains meet the sea and the clouds


    26th December was declared as an additional special non-working holiday and Ajuy Municipality decided to visit a remote baranggay, located in a mountainous area of the municipality. 

 My SO works there so he invited me to come. I was also in my Christmas break vacation, so why not. Four of us, the two other ladies from his department were at the back of the pickup. BTW, props to the driver for his driving skills, the way he navigated the slippery slopes and narrow roads at the edge of the mountain. 

One of the reason I went with them was to take photos. The photo above gave little to no justice to the wonderful view. In my defense, I took most of the photos at the back of a twerking truck.   




There's a hidden river down there.

Some sides of the mountains were cleared up for corn plantations.

Lush mountain

Beyond is the sea. It was too bright and I couldn't focus the camera well, but the sea was crystal blue against the verdant forest.




All geared up. Just another normal sunny day in the Philippines.

No, take that photo.



The Mayor chilling with his peeps. Never expected he stayed in the entire event. 

The mayor saying something, maybe funny. I wasn't able to take photos of children doing "Mano" to him. He was nice and spoke gently.

One tree apart, say the buffaloes

This is where the truck twerks

Rolling green knolls

The valleys

So many slippahs!


Kiddo be like, "Look at my slippahs!"
