Check it out, they've got lots of stuff you already miss.<br /><br />Photo Cache,<br />I tried to learn how to ski only earlier this year and I must say, I have still so much practice to do before I can hit a slope :) You know what, if snowfall this winter is substantial, I'll do snowshoeing for sure!<br /><br />Doc Gelo,<br />Thanks Doc!

But I also have plans to do other things, like visit archaeological Mayan ruins. I'll definitely blog about it when I get back. <br /><br />Haha, you have to tell me where I can get Boy Bawang in NYC then; I visit there every now and then, and as much as I hate to admit it, there are quite a few things from home that I miss.Jeruenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04902095693318762587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611917613633668467.post-62907209021709022032011-10-16T17:40:04.886-04:002011-10-16T17:40:04.886-04:00Batang Lakwatsero,

At least, may rock climbing/bouldering naman sa Montalban, Rizal di ba?<br /><br />Jeruen,<br />The challenges posed by a rock climb is something I can never do - even if I try the indoor wall like you did, I'd probably be 'frozen' in my track, unable to move up hahaha!<br /><br />Climbing or a trek up a mountain is very doable for me as well. If ever I have the budget for it, I'd like to go up Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. I wonder what mountains in Guatemala you're after - volcanoes perhaps? Sounds exciting!<br /><br />Boy Bawang was one of my 'trail sustenance'.

Ice climbing definitely looks like a cool thing to do; I haven't done it before, but would love to try it one of these days. I have done wall climbing before (there's a climbing gym near where I live) and I should say that it's a very strenuous activity. On my very first time, after doing it for a couple of hours, my hands ached that I couldn't even squeeze the sponge on my kitchen sink to wash my dishes. <br /><br />Anyway, ice or not, heights fascinate me. I'm actually excited to bag a few peaks in Guatemala this coming January. And yesterday, as a procrastination tactic, I was checking out Mount Meru in Tanzania.<br /><br />Oh, and how the heck did Boy Bawang end up in Alaska?! :DJeruenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04902095693318762587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611917613633668467.post-31855279539673024142011-10-16T03:56:20.554-04:002011-10-16T03:56:20.554-04:00pag ako nakakakita ng glacierm Titanic ang naalala...pag ako nakakakita ng glacierm Titanic ang naalala ko.. <br /><br />gusto ko to i-try.. parang ang saya.. sana may ganyan rin sa pinas.Batang Lakwatserohttp://ivanlakwatsero.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
