Aside from being hospitable, Filipinos are also known because of their culture
and traditions especially when it comes to Fiesta celebration. There are various reasons
why they have their festivals. One of the common reasons for the extravagant kinds of
celebrations is to give tribute to their patron saints or any god or deity they believe in.
Another is the way of gratitude for a bountiful harvest. There are also provinces which
perform rituals in festivals to ask for something like rain.

On the other side, I saw the God-made shore covered with heavenly white sand
with reachable horizon at the end. My eyes were feasted on the wonderful sceneries, it
was magical for me.
As I reached the cave together with the other tourists, I wore my protective gears
especially my helmet before I entered to the prominent cave of Caramoan.
It seemed that the cave is like a dark hole leading to Hades’ kingdom. I hurriedly
turned on my flashlight to see the wonders of the cave. Upon entering the cave, I saw
thousands of bats, screeching and screaming which seemed like they saw hunters and
tried to fly in different directions. It feels like there’s a thinair passing through the narrow
path. I could hardly breathe. But as we continue trekking the rough and soggy floor of
limestones, we embraced the fresh air touching our exhausted bodies.
As I reached the other side of the cave, Sohotan River surprised us with its
tranquility and sacredness. We decided to take kayaking for us to reach the other side
of the beach.
At exactly nine in the morning, I went back to the resort and started eating my
breakfast and waiting for the telephone to RING once again... Kring... Kring... Kring... to
get ready for my next adventure here in Caramoan.
