For a second when I opened my eyes after a dreamless sleep, I wondered if day 2 in Sagada will live up to our expectations.
After a fun filled adventure that brought us to an all time high in the excitement-meter on our first day, what other activities can SAGADA and our guides offer us?
Before the break of dawn everybody was up in anticipation for the sunrise watching at the Kiltepan viewpoint.
At 5:00AM we were already out in the quiet street of SAGADA waiting for our other angel, Kuya Emman – our angel behind the wheels, to bring us where our eyes can feast at the majestic sun as it awakens the world to its grandeur.
With renewed excitement we headed to Kiltepan with Gareth and a grin plastered in everyone's faces.
At first I was not sure if it was just me but once in Kiltepan I had this funny feeling of wanting to be in love.
Was it the "twilight " backdrop?
The multitude of pine trees seem to have transported us to Forks, Washington.
Suddenly, we were all Bellas calling our Edward and in Radney's case an Edward hunting for his Bella.
There's something about the woods that I can't seem to put a finger to.
Must be the sweet scent of the morning, the feel of the fog all around us, the presence of strangers and the company of dear friends whose faces are all painted with a smile I've never seen before. It was euphoric and it was contagious.
This, I believe, was where my friends and I fell in love with Sagada.
Unbelievably overjoyed, Haring Araw's failure to show up and amaze his audience with his first light, did not dampen our spirits.
Our effort to wake up early after yesterday's strenuous activity was not put to waste as we took advantage of the Edward-Bella-saga landscape and continue on with our series of photo-ops.
In high spirit my friends and I left Kiltepan with the throngs of tourists who had their own share of photo-op with the hope that perhaps tomorrow we will witness the heavenly show before we all head back to our world so unlike this.
to be continued...........
