Hey wazzup, it's been a new blog here. Just a simple blog.
Let's talk about the sea of clouds. Usually sea of clouds madalas makita sa Benguet, Baguio, or kung saan pa man na matataas na lugar. One time na na tyempohan ko lang sa Albay may sea of clouds. No need mo na pumunta ng norte para makita ang sea of clouds.
Take a place at Brgy. Oma-Oma, Ligao City, Albay. eto ang tinatawag na Oma-Oma Highlands.
How to get there?
1. Drive or commute to Ligao City early in the morning. Like 5 A.M. then take a look kung may hamog (dew)
2. Take a drive to Brgy. Oma Oma, or search in the Waze Oma-Oma Highlands. Matarik yung kalsada, and kayang kaya ng motor.
3. Enjoy the view.
Kakatuwa lang, minsan lang kasi ma tyempohan ang ganitong panahon sa Bicol. So ayan no need na pumunta ng norte para maka kita ng sea of clouds. Abang ka lang jan sa Ligao.
