Relaxing at Almont Beach Resort, Surigao City - June 2014

After a long bus ride from Butuan to Surigao City, my body was searching for some relaxation. Thankfully the company checked us in here in Almont Hotel in Surigao City, though it is kinda far from the "city". The place is not crowded, and very peaceful. Staff are also accommodating.

Perfect weather

It is not sand, but pebbles.

Visiting Legazpi and Naga - June 2014

Legazpi City is part of the Region V of Philippines. Mayon Volcano is one of the popular tourist destinations here in Legazpi, and luckily, I was able to see the perfect cone of this volcano.

Oh, the majestic Mt. Mayon!

We also visited the famous Cagsawa National Museum wherein people will offer to take pictures of you with the Cagsawa National Museum and Mt. Mayon. They will ask you to pose "awkwardly" and they will be the one to manipulate the shot.

Mt. Mayon is currently hiding behind the clouds. 

Here's a sample of our awkward pose!

We managed to tour ourselves around the city, since Legazpi was experiencing rotational brownout during that time.

Naga is just two (2) hours ride away from Legazpi. It is more developed compared to Legazpi. Restaurants, bars, and crowd. Everything looks familiar. It actually feels like I am still in Quezon City!
