MANGO CAMP

Its really fun in Zambales! There are lots of cool places to visit, from beautiful coastlines to farms and campsites!

And here we go again, visiting another fun and adventure filled campsite in the heart of Cabangan Zambales - THE MANGO CAMP!




We took a bus ride to Cabangan town proper 6 in the morning from our meeting place which was in San Narciso town plaza, after 35 minutes we were already there! The first thing we did - WE BOUGHT LOTS OF FOOD at the Cabangan Public Market! Haha! Its like we could not resist the native "kakanin" (rice cakes, cassava puddings etc) that they sell, we also bought pork meat for barbecue and some veggies that can be grilled. YES WE WANT OUR BELLIES TO BE REALLY STUFFED BEFORE DOING SOME ACTIVITIES LOL! Then we took a ride by a tricycle to the camp, the road was a little bumpy and the ride took 10 minutes to the camp. When we arrived, We were surprised that the four of us were only the customers that day (WERE SO HAPPY THAT WE FELT WE OWN THE PLACE) !  The caretakers were so welcoming and even helped us set up our spot in the pool area and lend us some grilling utensils.  Of course,  we cooked our food first then ATE LIKE PIGS (that we felt sleepy).  We took "selfies" haha and after lunch were the activities set for us!


THE ACTIVITIES WERE:

ATV (ALL TERRAIN VEHICLE) - drive along the man made trail... Its fun!
SUMO WRESTLING - wearing a humongous blob of foam we were like real sumo wrestlers!
PAINTBALL WAR- head to head against each other we fired paintballs till someone drops dead lol joke!
AIRSOFT - target shooting! I really enjoyed this one!
OBSTACLE COURSE - play through different obstacles, best to lose some fats!
WALL CLIMBING - unfortunately by that time this activity was on renovation.
BASKETBALL COURT - iexplain ko pa ba??? Lol















All in all i would say the camp was very entertaining and fun , I think its a very cool place to  enjoy group activities like TEAM BUILDING and TRAININGS or RECOLLECTIONS or RETREATS!

AWESOME CAPONES LIGHTHOUSE ISLAND

CAPONES ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE

This Island is a historical property of the San Antonio Town and is situated at the coast of Brgy. Pundaquit. It has a lighthouse up the hill that was first lit on August 1, 1890!!! It was used to guide international vessels from the North and Northeast towards the Subic Shipyards. Now it is solar powered.



Me and my friends has decided to ride the waves and visit the Island, at that time, we were the only people on the island... we thought that it would be as easy as 1..2..3.. and yeabah! we ended up with DRY MOUTH, BURNED SKIN, and  FRIZZY HAIR due to the fact that WE ARE SO BRILLIANT AND SMART (AS WE THOUGHT WE CAN REACH THE LIGHTHOUSE JUST BY WALKING....AND WALKING... AND WALKING...) we never thought that we should be looking for some signage .... and we got lost! hahaha! But with our kindled spirits we still pushed ( I PUSH MO YAN TEH -greta) ourselves trying to find the way up to the lighthouse!

Then Finally!...














Tiresome but it was all worth it! Reaching the lighthouse was indeed a spectacular moment! As if we were on top of the world! The sight was so beautiful! I would be going back there because of the serenity that we felt with nature!
