Throughout the journey of our life, we meet friends along the way. Some come and go, others stay and those who stayed are worthy to be kept. I'm the type of person who has a small circle of friends, I'm not a fan of having a big one. I've met these people during my college days except for the newly added in the group, Vince.
During our college days, we get to meet every day to do our school stuff, however, after graduation and as we grow older we also get busy building our careers. That's why it's very rare for us to meet and if we do, we have to check each other's schedules to do an appointment. Although, we do our best to have an annual gathering to see each other and catch up. We mostly take the opportunity to meet up in the most wonderful time of the year which is the month of December Unfortunately, everyone was busy last year which was the reason why this gathering got moved for a few months (better late than never).
My friend Chenny suggested this place named Rotypeaks Ridge Camp located at Impasug-ong, Bukidnon. After the bridal shower, we decided to do our gathering. Impasug-ong Bukidnon is 2-3 hours away from Cagayan de Oro City and their municipality is an hour away from Rotypeaks Ridge Camp. We went to Impasug-ong using Angelβs car but her car was left at the municipality because it won't survive going up to the mountains. So, we traveled there using Habal-Habal and I swear the road is very difficult and rocky. It's scary to someone like me who has a trauma riding a motorcycle not to mention, we traveled at night because we arrived at almost 6 pm that time and it's difficult to see the road, it was muddy and rocky because the rain just stopped when we arrived. My friend Melodina (the bride-to-be) and Alonnah fell in the motorcycle good thing they fell in the grass near pineapple plants and not somewhere rocky or near the cliff so, they were not hurt. We're all lucky because we all arrived safe and sound at the location, thanks to the experienced drivers of each habal-habal we got.
As promised in my last post, I will share with you this worthy and amazing place.
Here it is β¬οΈβ¬οΈβ¬οΈ Enjoy!
Along the way, we got caught by hunger so we took our lunch at this beautiful cafe located at Sayre Highway, Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon the Lamplighter Cafe
When we got to our destination, we cooked the food we bought from the grocery since the place has a dirty kitchen and we had dinner together. It was already dark when we arrived at the place so, we were unable to see what was around us.
We planned to have a bonfire, however, after eating dinner it suddenly rained. So, we decided to stay inside and do our late exchange gift.
And these are the things I received β¬οΈ
After exchanging gifts, we noticed that the rain stopped. And we saw 3 people having a bonfire so, we decided to join. We brought with us the mallows, biscuits, and chocolates we bought to make smores while doing bonfires. And we've met Dan, Ken, and Jayvee who were also staying at Rotypeaks.
The next day, we were officially welcomed by this wonderful view. Are you ready?
After group pictures, here's me again capturing memories from this amazing place β¬οΈ
With all the things that we've been through from this trip, at first, I thought of not going back however, later on, I realized that nothing can beat an adventure with your friends and loved ones. I enjoyed it!
