The boat was big enough for the passenger who want to sleep during thier trip. You can take a nap if you'd like. Featuring my bestie.π
After 12345 years! πππ i mean after 1 hour and 30 minutes. We already reach the Brgy.Janosa
Sorry for the "tagilid photo"ππ
We proceed to the Base camp or Brgy hall for registration.π At the back of this base camp, there is a store where you can buy anything you need.(not anything walang ganun hoy! Hindi lahat ng kailangan mo mabibigay sayo. Wag assuming para hindi masaktan)π.
Don't worry where to pee or poop haha! They have Cr for you baby!Just pay 5Php. It was funny to encounter the comfort room without toilet bowl.This is to make sure that you will pee only not poops (as the owner said)π So,if you pee there,don't ever look for the toilet bowl just pees on the floor. Ps: there is water in the cr and it's clean. Mabango pa kesa sa hininga mo.
For more info you can contact the number given aboveπ.Kuya Pogi was the tour guide assigned to us.After fixing ourselves we already start the trek.ππ yey!.
Along the trail,we meet this first group of mountaineer from laguna.
Always be pleasant to the people you meet on the way going up-for they are the same people you meet on the way down. -Wilson
From riding boat to this.Wow! I was really amazed.While walking under this bamboo tunnel i feel more exciting for what's next. Mother Nature never fails us to show its natural beauty.π Toward the campsite it gets steeper but thanks to kuya Pogi for creating walking sticks to assist us.
After 1.5 hours of trek we decide to take our lunch first, before we proceed to the summit.So we had time also to catch our breath.π while having our lunch some of the mountaineers already came. Meet our new friends from the right Jm,Loraine,john loyd(sabi nya eh) Kuya Gilbert and the other group from laguna.
You will notice the half of the grass is brown, as kuya Pogi said,the grass was burn intentionally so that it will grow and bloom again. They use to do this every year before the holy week. So,if you wish to go there and catch the grass blossom,wait for the month of May.It was great.(Great talaga besh tinadtad ba naman ng hiwa braso ko e).πDon't forget to wear long sleeve to protect your belo skin from the sharp wild grass. Wait there's more bring an umbrella or sunblock.(subrang init)
By the end of the trail we were rewarded the 360 views of Laguna de Bay.From the summit you can see the different island like Malaki island, Bonga island, pihan island,Calamba island and Jalajala island. ππ
It's windy up there so don't forget to hold your Cap or else, the wind will blow it away.ππ like what happened to us. We really enjoy the view supa dupa! There is a part of me that wanted to camp at the summit. As if they would allow me.(kaso bawal besh my camping site diba?π doon ka na sa tama.Bakit kasi masarap ang hindi pwedeπ).
This mountain is one of my favorite chorva.ππ just kidding. I mean one of my favorite mountain i've been.

Mount.Malagundi Trail
Mt.malagundi is a newly opened trail. From the campsite of Mount.tagapo we're heading to Mt.Malagundi.Bestie and i decide to do a traverse tsar!πyobong! But this time we proceed the trail with the other group of mountaineer.
The more the merrier!πyeah that's true. To be honest Mt.malagundi was not in the plan in short we're not prepared,(they are not really prepared) we just muddle trough.
Despite of the heat of the sun and those struggles,we managed to play like a kid.( Play like a kid and enjoy life while we were young.)
During our trail to Mt.Malagundi look what we've found.ππ A cute Baby Owl. Yas! That's oooooowwwlll..ππ
Finally! The malagundi is here! I don't get it. Why they call it Malagundi if there is no Lagundi on the place.tsar lang.π The Background view of Mt.Malagundi is same as Mt.tagapo. The only difference between this mountain was the trail. When you take Malagundi trail it take more hours to reach the Brgy.hall doubles as the time you take Mt. Tagapo.
Picture! Picture! While waiting for our tour guide.π
Subsequently we experience the mt.tagapo and Malagundi trails at last we already arrive to the base camp. Take group photos,paid our tour guide, eat and preparing ourselve for leaving. π
Waiting for the boat..
Tada! Here we are again..
Leaving Brgy.Janosaππ
The long trip is over.π Time to say goodbye! I'm glad i met them. Even in the short period of time we managed to shares our experiences. We completed the trail but not our friendship.ππ until we meet again.π
Special thanks to my very supportive bestfriend..π i love you so much my dear!.ππ
