MINALUNGAO NATIONAL PARK, NUEVA ECIJA PART 2

November 1, 2018
MABUHAY!

This is a photo and video journal of our family bonding travel to the magnificent town of Nueva Ecija featuring our visit to Minalungao National Park where I celebrated my 47th birthday.
THE HANGING BRIDGE
The hanging bridge is a very famous attraction in the park. Approximately 100 meters in length, crossing this bridge will fire up one's adrenaline rush perfect for adventure seekers. It is good to note that the bridge does not sway much though there is much foot traffic along the bridge
This hanging bridge leads to some hotels if you want to stay overnight.



The location of this bridge is so magnificent that it was used as a location scene for a famous Philippine primetime television show.



This bridge is also a perfect spot to take pictures with majestic limestone cliffs in the background.

THE MUNICIPALITY OF PAPAYA
We visited the municipality proper to buy some food. This is a small municipality with lots of friendly people.



BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
I chose to celebrate my 47th birthday in this secluded paradise so I can spend some precious time with my family. There is no television, internet, or cellphone signal that will interfere with our family conversation. We recalled some funny moments and those tough times that we've been through as a family. This bonding moment makes us strong and united in love.






I'm really very grateful to God that I have a very loving family through thick & thin.
