Rizal Adventure

One of the my best travel destination, Rizal. It's just 2 hours(or less) away from Manila.
When I heard that we're going to visit Waterfalls, it makes me very excited to visit Rizal.
From Tanay market, we hired a tricycle driver to be our guide.

Places we've visited:
Daranak Falls
Batlag Falls
Calinawan Cave
Tanay Grotto
Parola / Laguna Bay


Our First Stop: Daranak Falls

It was awesome to see this beautiful waterfalls.
Next Stop: Calinawan Cave Spelunking.
This is my 1st Spelunking experience. I braved the dark cave, and we only have 1 flashlight plus our cellphone light. I really can't wait to go out. My travel buddies was able to took some few photos. 



While inside the cave, I was very scared and really wanted to go out. And when I saw the light near  in the exit of the cave, I'm really happy... I survived Calinawan Cave.

After our spelunking, we went to Tanay Grotto:

This trip is very memorable for me. It's my first time to see a waterfalls, also my first time for cave spelunking. Rizal is absolutely a worth visiting place.
