Super duper late post but who cares haha. I just don’t want to forget this event ‘cos it was so fun!
We went to La Union during one long weekend in December last year and our itinerary included a trip to Tangadan falls. I was actually surprised that we were going somewhere else aside from Urbiztondo beach area so I was internally freaking about it because I wasn’t prepared! I didn’t bring my pang-malakasang tsinelas (ie my Sandugo) and I didn’t bring enough clothes. I was so dreading the thought of river trekking and wading in the waters while I’m not equipped with the right, uhm, slippers. I could die you know?!
But what have you, our biglaang Tangadan proved to be my favorite part of our LU trip. Aside from our friend’s proposal hehe! It was thrilling, exhausting, and rewarding. And even if I woke up super sore from the short trek to the waterfalls, I could do it over and over again because the experience is truly worth it!
Littered in this post are a couple of snaps from that super memorable trip. We were driving all the way in that we didn’t notice a bunch of locals had gestured for us to stop. They chased us for a bit until they were able to catch us to inform us that they do not allow private vehicles to drive up the mountain because it’s not safe.
So quick note to those using Waze or Maps to drive to the place: DON’T IGNORE THE SIGNS. We missed the checkpoint so they had to chase us hehe.
