I had a wonderful opportunity to take a break last week as I attended the Midyear Convention of the Philippine Society of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery in Cagayan de Oro. We had two days of learning and 3 days of fun.
First, we visited Iligan City, Misamis Oriental, home to the famous Maria Cristina Falls. We had a wonderful time eating at the foot of another water fall, even if it was raining.
Then, back to CDO for the convention proper. I was originally housed at the Malberry Suites, but was later transferred to the Pryce Hotel. Two of my companions stayed at the Koresko Hotel.
Our next destination was Camiguin Island. We visited the hot and cold springs, the white beach, the sunken cemetery and hiked the old volcano, Hibok-hibok.
White water rafting was the next activity. Despite the scare of the raft being deflated because we hit a rough rock, we had a blast!
Before coming back to Manila, we had a short trip to the Del Monte Farm in Bukidnon. The place was filled with pineapple all around.
This was my adventure of rafting, swimming, hiking and pineapples!
