Mae posted some new photos at her page in Facebook which brings back memories when we visited my family in the Philippines. It was summer time and we hiked on this hill, I felt bad for my kids and husband because the heat of the sun was too much for them. On top of this hill, you could see the majestic Mayon Volcano and there is a zipline that my daughter wanted to try but her height did not qualify for the ride. Ligñon Hill is located in the province of Albay.
On the other side, the photos below somehow healed my homesickness. These were taken in our place in Donsol Sorsogon.
Below are some of the photos during our vacation taken at Ligñon Hill. See the Mayon Volcano at the background?
Those sandy part in the last photo is where the lava flowed during the last major eruption. Mayon Volcano is a very active one. Here is a photo of the volcano when it's erupting.
Thanks for your comments.
That hill looks like it goes on forever!

Oh Rose, it also makes me miss the wonderful time my family and I had when we visited your wonderful place, Bicol! The Lignon Park over looking Mayon Volcano is breath taking! I wanna go back there again! Hopefully, we would see the Butandings this time around. :)
