EAGLE of the NORTH

I have a friend who lives in Agoo, La Union and I told her that I’m going to Agoo to take pictures of the eagle statue along Marcos Hi-way. She said that it’s “boring”…what do you mean boring? where’s your sense of adventure? what if I’ll take pictures of the eagle statue and climb it? btw, the statue is 2 to 3 stories high I guess.

…I finally did

I decided to take my shoes off because the statue was too steep to climb and to be honest I got scared a little bit but it was a lot of fun!

so now I guess all of you are wondering who was taking picture’s of me all along?…it was this guy, I befriended the son of the barangay captain and it was really nice of him to accompany at the top.

during my stay, it was a rare opportunity seeing a real eagle flying around the area. the eagle was just flying in circles for a couple of minutes. it was really nice, how he flies and all. the eagle was there right before my eyes at that very moment. it was really magical.

    do they actually allow one to climb? hehehe...nice! It has been eons since I have since this when buses from Baguio pass through Agoo pa. BTW We did not have a chance to meet in Baguio during the Panagbenga. The traffic was just too draining.

    galing pwede palang patungan yan. galing ah.

    yes some people would find places like that as plain and lifeless but in life... it's a choice to find adventure even on the simplest things.
