It's more fun in CDO

Time to break the ice, stop coding and have fun! Anyway, it's summer time as announce by Pag Asa days ago. This is my first contribution to "Its more fun in the Philippines". For me yes it is so much fun living in your own country but its a sad reality that most filipinos living here wants to go abroad. Even the government promote College and University students to take courses which are most demand job abroad. But on the lighter side, Pinoys, no matter how hard life is, still have time to make some fun.

Chada CDO!. This happens about a month ago. Me and my lovely wife attended her sisters' wedding in Cagayan de Oro city. Its my third time visiting this city and all I can say is "Wah", I mean wonderful! Here's a shot at the  CDO airport;


Before airport touchdown, I saw the villages that was wiped out when Typhoon Sendong strikes the city. Its a sad story but all we can do is pray and hope it won't happen again.

CDO is a nice place, not so traffic like Manila. Well, we really didn't roam around the city, its a big place and we have a little time to prepare for the wedding.

Introducing the Dahilayan  Adventure. When you're in CDO, one of the favorite destination is the Dahilayan Adventure Park which is an hour and half drive from the city. Dahilayan is famous with their Longest Dual Zipline, which they claim as Asia's Longest Dual Zipline.

Before reaching Dahilayan, we stop first at Camp Phillips to take some pictures. This place is known because of the Del Monte plantation.


This is the biggest pineapple plantation as far as I had seen. Also, you can find the biggest pineapple here. 
The Biggest Pineapple in the world! (But you can't eat this)

 

The road going to Dahilayan is so tough. But when you reach the place, its a perfect spot to take a rest. The temperature is so cool like Baguio City.


We stop at Dahilayan Forest Park. Check out some fees here;



There are also available rooms if you want to stay overnight. But you know what's more fun here? of course the longest Zipline.

smile and tell the world you survive!

P. S.: Please check your vital signs before doing the Zipline. This is an extreme adventure, like flying without wings!
