Agas Agas Bridge and Zip Line (video)

mySpot | Agas Agas Bridge (Tallest Bridge in Philippines) and Zipline

 
One of the highlights in my Leyte Vacation was that overwhelming (skin-burning) whole day motor cycle tour to the southern part of Leyte. And thanks to my Nanay Luz for bringing me to what they say now as The Longest Zip Line in the Philippines on the tallest bridge which is also in the country.

We started our journey in Abuyog riding a single motorcycle going to Silago. Then to Hinunangan, San Juan, passed thru the mountains of St. Bernard, going up to Sogod, then we reached the Agas Agas Bridge where the zip line is located. Check the map screen shot below for the route.

Of course we had a few (actually, there were plenty) stop overs and we have to refill the gas and we have to rest also. Once we got there, it was in the middle of the mountainous regions of Sogod, Leyte.

Before you can go try out the zip line (and the cable car), you have to pay Php 5.00 (five) pesos for the entrance fee (what?!)  And then ticket for the zip line was about (darn, I forgot) 150 or 200 Pesos per ride.

mySpot | Tagaytay Roadtrip and the creepy zipline

It's a very busy weekend and too tiring on a hot sunny day, but its worth the fun of enjoying the day together in Tagaytay.

Well, who can say, our usual bonding before is just going to the mall, staying on one's house, once-a-year swimming, and that's it. But now, things have changed a little bit, we've been going to far places, doing road trips, traveling to places and having fun at the same time.

Actually, the original plan is to make our 2nd visit in Lucban Quezon... (roadtrip to quezon) but Apple suggested to try Tagaytay. We have our breakfast in Jollibee... then, we went to Tierra de Maria. After that we were supposed to go to Picnic grove for the zipline, but then we got lost (kahit na magkatabi lang pala yun) and reached the highlands... We just have our photoshot and went back to Picnic Grove to try the zipline...

It was pretty scary but it's worth the experience... Apple was screaming out loud while we were on it... However, it was nice... :D

Then, we had our lunch at Dencio's, and made fun with the good-for-5 chicken... (the chicken on the plate as seen on the photo)

I also brought the photo-album (our photos after college to recent) and we showed it to Cathy's bf... We were still laughing as if we haven't seen it before... And now, I've got lots of new pics to print and to compile in a new album...

Even though we haven't got what we were expecting (the cold breeze of wind), the experience was very memorable and one of a kind...
