The Silver Lining on the Clouds above Lian, Batangas
By: S.L.A. Co
When I had learned that I was able to get a slot to join those going to Lian, Batangas, I was super happy and excited because we were told that we would be able to go snorkeling, among many other water-related activities in Talim Bay in the orientation. Knowing this, we had prepared and garbed for this trip in beach-appropriate outfits, expecting to get some warmed by the sun and soaked by the bay water. Unfortunately for us, on the day of our scheduled trip, we only got the latter of what we had formerly expected— to get soaked— and not just by water from Talim Bay but also from the sky that was grey and pouring.
We made our way to Lian, Batangas by a convoy of vans and cars. The roads were damp and therefore some traffic was to be expected as we were heading from Taft to the south. Thankfully, there were several rest stops at gasoline stations on the way so our food situation was covered.
