Have you been on a road trip, stopping at places that is worth visiting then continuing to the next destination with another beautiful spot, then suddenly the car won't start? How frustrating could that be, especially if you are in an unfamiliar territory. It could be that something is wrong with your spark plug, head gasket, accelerator and the works but then, I'll leave it to the experts like Los Angeles auto repair to do all the dirty work. I can do some basic trouble shooting on my car but anything complicated are beyond my knowledge.

Glad that a car as Honda Civic is reliable to be use on a road trip. Even at 100,000 miles it is still reliable and economical. And being an economical car, you don't have to worry about paying too much for gas. With comfortable interiors and very spacious leg room, you get to have an enjoyable fun-filled road trip.

Isn't this a fun idea to explore the country side and feel mother nature at its best? So why wait and sit in front of your computers when there's some nice place to go? Go, get a map and drive the country side, stopping at places that is worth capturing in your cameras!

One lazy sunday afternoon we decided to have a road trip. We were traveling Uling, Naga-Balamban-Transcentral Road. I was on the passenger's seat and that was my first time to enjoy the scenic view of the road we're transversing since most of the time I would be passing this place for official business. And everytime, I would be in a hurry to reach my destination to be in time for my scheduled visit.

I noticed how beautiful the river on the side of the road was with the blue skies in the background. I was also able to discover small waterfalls along the way. Beautiful views of mountains, trees and rivers are abundant in the area.

Another view worth watching is the site of Carmen Copper (previous Atlas Mining) mining pit. The brown color of the soil being mined gives a good contrast to the lively green and blue background.

Sunsets in Toledo wharf is also something I look forward but due to time constrains we have to be in Transcentral hi-way before dark. We were able to drop by a mountain resort with their pool on the foot of the mountain and we have to hike back to the main road.

We concluded the day with sweet corn in Barangay Dap-dap (which is the best in Cebu) and hang-out at Governor Leyson's Peak to have some rest and fresh breeze before we head back to the city. This was another way we bond with my ex-boyfriend now husband.
