Spent most of the night listening to the continuous rain and jst had it i need to get out of Prosperidad. Next morning still raining I left the town promising to come back when the weather is fine. Took a Bachelors bus out from a simple bus terminal next to the main road, it goes to Butuan then i connected to Cagayan de Oro. It is still raining but started to ease up as we approach Cagayan and was relieved to finally see bits of sun as i find a taxi in the chaotic bus terminal.

After so much consternation over where to have our Team Building, Cagayan de Oro was finally voted 11/10 against Bethany Garden in Ozamiz City. Cagayan de Oro is about four hours away, to the east of Ozamiz (For those from Manila, it is 1 hour 15 minutes by plane).

Today’s our last day here at Cagayan De Oro City or CDO. Similar to yesterday, De Oro Mountain Explorers or DOME (contact Jerome at 09194043930) shall take us to a day of thrill and adventure. We are spelunking at Kweba De Oro, which was first explored by DOME and first filmed with Beauty Queen and TV Host, Mirriam Quiambao. Afterwhich, we shall do what most tourists came to CDO for: Water Tubing, also known as Pinoy White Water Rafting. We were picked up from PNRoa at 7:30am. Via DOME’s jeep, it took us only 30 minutes to get to the cave’s point of entry. The cave is part of the municipality of Lumbia. We trekked for 20 minutes around the local’s backyards and wet farmlands till we got into the slippery mouth of Kweba De Oro. ... read more
