Our chariot for the next 6 days is a van. Just Carl and I, with a driver and a guide! not bad for US$1170 accomodation and breakfasts included!
The Chariot!
Dozed on and off in the van - the driver got lost lol and we ended up doing an 1.5 hr backtrack once they realised. Signposts are few and far between!
Our destination for tonight is Banaue. The rice terraces are located here - they are called the 8th wonder of the world. Its cool and drizzling - Joseph and Doy (guide & driver) think they are going to die of the cold lol whereas I think its bliss - about 17C. Acommodation is very basic.... staying at a place called the Green lodge. We have the only room with an ensuite! But its clean and the beds reasonable. Hot water is a misnomer! it should be called tepid water lol.
I love the way that houses are falling down while they are still beeing built!
Tiny congested town clinging to the side of the mountain.
People are friendly enough, but I dont know what happens here except for tourism... there seemed to be very few shops that werent selling tourist stuff.
