Visiting Malaybalay... KAAMULAN!!!

Malaybalay, Bukidnon, a very good place to stay if you want to be close to nature. I usually pass by in Malaybalay during college years. It is almost 7 hours from General Santos City, where I came from. Malaybalay is a 5 hours drive from Davao City if you will take a bus and around 3 hours from Cagayan de Oro City if you will take a bus also.

Two weeks ago, I went to Malaybalay, Bukidnon to witness the Kaamulan Festival. Kaamulan, the yearly festival celebration of whole Bukidnon. This time it was a bit different from the previous Kaamulan that I attended. Since I already graduated from college and move back home. A bit far from Malaybalay compare when I was in Cagayan de Oro. This time, I was with my college friends, we planned to be in Malaybalay as a meeting place for us. Reunited after one year the graduation.
The first person to arrived in Malaybalay was Raine. Raine was my best pal since first year college and the last time I saw her was during our graduation. I was a little bit excited. She was texting me from time to time, checking me where part of Bukidnon I am.
Same with our other two friends Kati and Fati, who were really excited also. It was I think the first time we will be together after college days. We were hoping that Netti was there but unfortunately she was not there.
At around 7:00 in the evening I arrived in Malaybalay terminal and 30 minutes after Kati and Fati arrived. First thing we did was to take a rest, eat and arrange our things.
On the following day, we started to roam around Malaybalay.

First stop: Checking souvenir shops. Checking for prices if it fits our budget. The first souvenir was our T-shirt printed with Kaamulan.




Second stop: Picture taking with the ornamental plants that being displayed.

Third stop: Kaamulan Ground --- i don't know if that's what they really call it---





then at night we ate at Kamayan house.




On the next day, our last day in Malaybalay, we went to Ate Apol's house. thanks for the lunch ate Apol.
Raine need to go home early, she need to take the final exam. And I need to go home also because I have an appointment with the CEO.
And thanks for the thanksgiving!
well... i hope to see you again guys... hay! a sad fact that we are really far from each other! hope to see you soon again!
P.S thanks for the hitch ride... hehehe...
