In and Around Legazpi City

My schedule the morning of the day I left Legazpi City for Manila suddenly cleared up. While I was in the hotel room, I Googled places to visit in Legazpi City and hoped for Cagsawa Ruins. Unfortunately, the local I was with informed me that with the allotted two hours, the trip to Cagsawa Ruins was out of the question due to the heavy traffic caused by construction along the highway. He suggested that we go to Ligñon Hill Nature Park and buy pasalubong afterwards. Of course, I wholeheartedly agreed. On the way back to Hotel Venezia from Ligñon Hill Nature Park, I learned that my free time was extended by another 90 minutes, so we decided to drive around Legazpi City – from the port and bay walk area all the way to the ATV places – and buy more pasalubong. Needless to say, it was a fun yet expensive experience.

I did not climb Mount Mayon this time around, but it looks so gorgeous in the photo that I feel bad not including it here. ☺
