Holy Week 2013: Maundy Thursday Part 1

A few weeks ago, I was looking for something adventurous to do on my Holy Week 2013 vacation. At first I was thinking of going to Camiguin Island for Panaad 2013 but it was canceled on the last minute. So instead I tag along with my aunt, uncle, cousins, cousin's friends and Justine we went to Malitbog, Bukidnon. This was the first time for me and my cousin's friends.

Malitbog Bukidnon


During our roadtrip we were noisy and are eager to see the scenery. The green mountains and forest that we passed by feasted in our eyes.
