Beat the Heat



I have a splitting headache...a sign that the weather is really hot. 34.5 degrees celcius the weather report says. The highest temperature reading so far of the state weather bureau. That's what the news says. I spent the whole day sleeping and praying that the headache would go away.

When the weather is too hot to handle, I often return to the memory of my adventures at Dahilayan Adventure Park, Bukidnon. I love the comforts of the cool 14 degrees Celcius and the mouth-watering steak served for dinner at Cowboy's Grill. We stayed at those cozy little huts where air condition is no longer needed. I love the smell of the trees, the flowers and even the red earth. A few minutes of walking is just what I need to forget the hustle and bustle of the big city.
Not far from the inn where we stayed is the Dahilayan Adventure Park where you can find Asia's longest zip line about 840 meters. I will never forget my nervous silence while prepping up for the big Superman fly with my brother. I kept screaming while my brother turned deaf after the whole ordeal. My poor kuya...tsk.tsk.
The headache is almost gone now...
