.: After a decade: A visit in my home town in Oriental Mindoro

dahil holy week mahaba ang bakasyon kaya naisipan namin na bumisita sa lugar na aming kinalakhan, masayang bumalik sa aming probinsya lalo nat ang tagal na nung huli akong dumalaw doon dahil sa isang malupit na dahilan chos! ayan lakasan ng loob my ate and i decided to spend our holy week in our province.

April 21, 2011

we woke up early for our trip we rode a JAM Liner Bus in Cubao bound to Batangas pier, fare was P154 each it was a two hours drive going to Batangas pier. Before the trip i searched for the schedule of the supercat trip going to Calapan from Batangas, I advice everyone to make a reservation online or buy a ticket online especially when your planning to go somewhere during holy week 'coz i tell you the queue will make you feel that you would'nt want to pursue your trip.

It is also important to know the schedule of the ferry from Calapan to Batangas, so that you'll know when to leave in time of your return in Manila. (matagal kasi ang pagitan ng byahe ng supercat from Calapan going to Manila, kaya dapat hindi malate).

the schedule of Super Cat trip from Batangas to Calapan

and so after the queue we already had our tickets and will wait for the time when the ferry

arrived. The fare was 300 per person travel time is one hour.

tickets for three (my sis, cousin and I).

while waiting for the time of departure we then decided to eat breakfast first.

nuggets and bonggang rice for breakfast

ate, stephanie and I.

see the passengers ang dami

after we ate i bought a ticket for a van going to Bulalacao (ilang taon na ko na di nakauwi kaya d ko alam na mali pala ang ginagawa ko sabi ng ate ko bumili na daw ng ticket sa Van para pag baba namin sa Calapan d kami mahirapan, yan din ang sabi ng nagbebenta ng ticket dahil pagbaba daw namin doon wala daw kami masasakyan kung d kami bibili agad ng ticket, at ayun naniwala ako dahil d ko na nga alam ang patakaran at ito ang first time na uuwi kami ng kami lang "walang magulang na kasama" ang liit ko pa nung huli akong pumunta kaya wala akong alam).parang masyado naman akong defensive! wala nga akong alam.. bwahahaha....

ayan fee going to Bulalacao

ayan tsk.

ayan magbabayad na ko. 290x3= P870

when the ferry arrived we then proceeded to the gate and get in the ferry. it just left in time of the schedule. We arrived in Calapan port after an hour (mas okay sumakay sa supercat kasi mabilis, pag yung malaking barko mga two hours ang byahe pero mas mura almost half ng price sa supercat).

Good Morning! while on the boat and in the middle of the sea i took this photo of the sky and sun.

welcome to the port of calapan

after a decade nakarating din ako uli dito ang sarap ng feeling.

upon arrival in calapan port we proceeded in the parking area where the vehicles bound to bulalacao were at and there we found the yellow van going to bulalacao. travel time from Calapan to San Roque is 5hours, kaya sobrang sakit ng pwet mo sa kakaupo mas malau pa kesa sa Manila to Calapan hihi.

ang nakakainis na nangyari pagdating sa Roxas sabi ng Van driver d na daw dederecho papuntang bulalacao eh ang binayaran namin eh hanggang bulalacao (imagined ang difference ng price hanggang Roxas tsk.) at ang signboard nya ay hanggang bulalacao kaya sabi ko kukunin namin yung excess sa pamasahe namin pero ang binigay niya eh 100 plus lang eh ang gagastusin namin hanggang san roque ay 80 isa, in short nalugi kami ang sabi pa ng Van Driver d naman daw niya makukuha yung bayad doon sa binilhan namin ng ticket kaya nakakaasar. Sa susunod alam ko na ang gagawin ko at hindi na magpapaloko,. nakakabadtrip talaga, ano man lang yung ibalik yung pamasahe namin eh panigurado naman na tumubo xa ng malaki ang mahal kaya ng pamasahe hanggang bulalacao tsk. eh hanggang Roxas lang naman kami kaya nakaka dissappoint, ayun inisip ko na lang na baka kailangan niya ng pera kaya cge d na ko nagpa upset at sumakay na kami sa ibang Van papuntang San Roque Bangkal.

after 5 hours nakarating din kami sa bahay ng uncle ko at masasarap ang mga nakahain sa mesa kaya lahat ng pagod ay pawing-pawi yipeee!!

ito nman talaga ang na miss ko.. :)
