                                        Many visitors/tourists because it was a long weekend/holiday


In our bike ride around Marinduque last Sunday April 8, we saw (or were shown) white sand beaches of Torrijos. They are not as powdery. But can do.  Besides malapit. Mura. Madaling puntahan. Di kailangang mar plane na mahal na. From Cubao or Lucena makakapunta  sa Marinduque.

Weep no more white sand beaches lovers. Tayo na sa Marinduque.

                                          No sewage effluent yet, no E coliform bacteria, pristine
                                                     and clear water pa.

                                             Slightly brown ang white sand

Munching Corn at Gen Trias stop

Rizal Philippines |  January 20 2014

We munched corn at Gen Trias, before climbing to Gov Drive at about 9:30.  We thought we could reach Tagaytay by 10:30  (We did l5 minutes later)  This was the first time we had corn for our snacks. Corn sold at 12 pesos each.

Corn has high Glycemic Index, high calorie content.  The corn was fresh and just cooked.  (not reboiled)

Enjoy.
