Moalboal Trip and Canyoning Adventure

I've already posted a bit about this on Facebook about this trip but also want to record it here...

Andrey and I took our first trip just the two of us since our 5th anniversary in summer 2007. It was really nice to get away and do something we wouldn't do if we had kids already. We found this adventure company and found paying for a day tour totally worth it. We may do it again as they have many other tours available - from trekking up a volcano on Negros Island to river climbing.

The trip was the perfect mix between activity and relaxation. We stayed in a quiet little resort that we pretty much had to ourselves. It's pretty great that this place is only a 2.5 hour drive away. Am thinking we may have to get away a little more often. It's so refreshing to get out of the city every once in a while. We both realize how important it is for our relationship to have time away together and we are thankful for the opportunity to do that. It was like a breath of fresh air for our relationship and for each of us individually.

Here's a few shots from the trip. At the bottom is a short video of Andrey coming down the first waterfall. I'm telling you it was one of the funnest things I've ever done. A little scary but fully exciting and totally worth it. The guides were very experienced and not once did I doubt their abilities to lead us safely down the canyons. So fun!
