But there's much more there, only those who have the time to really explore will reap awesome rewards. There is a new destination called the Maribojoc Cafe in Abatan, Lingkod, Maribojoc, right after the bridge from Cortes. This floating cafe features bamboo raft cottages where you can have coffee and a massage. The rafts are also the base for a boating tour of an enchanting mangrove forest nearby where there's an emerald mangrove canopy on high tide and eerie caverns of huge roots on low tide. You can also take a winding tour of a mangrove and nipa island nearby and just soak in the calm blue green waters.

I visited some churches in Iloilo found some of them where dissapointments. Like Tigbanuan church which I think they added 2 horrible looking belfries recently. But in consolation at least they have some beautiful mosaics as I remembered it. I also got to visit Leon on the advice of a priest in Miag-ao (if I remember it correctly). Well nothing much to see in the old church of Leon but it must have been a grand church before. Another odd or stupid thing I observed was in Guimaras in Navales near the vacation house of the Lopezes. Theres an old small church there, wherein they demolished the walls but retained the facade as well as the tree that was growing on it to denote its age. Another sigh! In addition, just in case you haven't visited San Jose church in Batangas it has a painted interior and for me one of the better preserve churches that I've seen. It also has a garden. There are also a number of old houses there. Another one would be the church in Calaca, Batangas. It also has a painted interior and a number of old houses also in that town. Balayan church for me, is also okay, except that the way they restored the belfry was simply downright ugly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
