bucolia: the misty mountains (first installment of the kaladkarin chronicles, part III)

[ialman]

early march, i received an SMS from melay, asking me if i was interested in joining ykamo’s bicol XP. at the time, i had no idea what XP actually meant, whether it stood for experience, expedition, exploration, or a computer OS. but my response was quick and short: i said yes. my only concerns were the budget and when the XP would begin and end.

wow, you were able to climb Mt. Bulusan! We planned to climb the volcano too during the Holy Week but I chickened out. I am a true blue Buluseño and appreciate how you wrote about our amazing volcano and the bodies of water in the area. i missed those limatiks.

funny you found my blog over at livejournal. thanks. :D we actually met a huge group on their way up bulusan when we were on our way down. you should've been in that group. bulusan is quite an awesome mountain, and i wouldn't mind repeating the experience soon. and there is no other way to write about the volcano. it's just wonderful.

Sir,

Permission to repost lang po. Nakakaaliw yung narrative nyo about the mighty Bicolandia volcanos, lalo na yung Bulusan.
