la union

Going to La Union, one fact that I now learn when going to the North of part of Luzon using SCTEX, you should take the Luisita Exit if it is still early, early is 2am-6am, because taking the last exit of the Tarlac route will just eat up your gas millage and time, considering the residential scene there, accidents can happen anytime. You’ll just take the last exit of the SCTEX route to Tarlac during the rush hour for you  not go thru the traffic of the Town proper.. We are now 12 people going to La Union and is expecting 8 more friends coming from Manila.. ama learn surfing later.. will take pictures..

Finally, after a not so long trip, we’re here in La Union, have a nice place to stay at, a descent view right off the shore.. most of us are too tired for surfing, but me, am psyched! Haha

Made my debut in surfin’, the first was the hardest then everything was easy all the way, really had a great time, plus.. had a bargain Rush Guard, ‘original billabong’ slightly used.. haha.. The price was a bargain, so weather it is fake or original it’s ok.. We surfed at Bacnotan because the waves in San Juan are wild, not very helpful for beginners, the is like a piece of paradise right just before a cement factory, greens and browns are perfectly mixed..

              Had our dinner at UrbizTondo, the food was decent (too hungry to be choosyJ). Tomorrow will be another story for of us, all the body aches and sun burns will sting, hangovers and early sea breeze, am loving the beach..

              Finally got a shower, I was soaked and sticky a while ago, the waves were so wild, riding was hard, even had myself close to a bleeding knee accident, again I am not me if I didn’t had myself close to dying, I was eaten alive by a very big wave..  we’ll be going home in a while.. just right before having a closer smell of home, we had a stopover at the Caltex Rosales(besides SM Rosales) where they sell Balot 24hours..

              Finally Home.. Lord thank you for the wonderful trip, new friends, new things that I learned and mostly, thank you for being such an amazing God, I cannot thank you enough for all the provisions, guidance and love that You're showering us. All i do is to glorify Your name..
