Living the Pagud Life

On our second long weekend, we decided to take our first trip out of Manila. We took a plane up North to Laoag. Then, we travelled two more hours north by van to a town called Pagudpud (Pa-good-pood).

The video below pretty much explains what we did this weekend. Other highlights included great food, snorkeling (I saw a sea snake, yikes!), and a challenging hike that landed us on top of a hill for a great view of the seascape.

Our resort was surrounded by green, lush hills which provided a refreshing retreat away from the city.

We will post more pictures at a later date, for now, you can watch the video. Also, we added some photos of a beautiful sunset taken from our apartment. Smog and pollution make for some outstanding sunsets! Check them out above.
