Mt. Mayon is threatening to erupt. Once it will erupt, volcanologists predict that the perfect cone will be destroyed, and at least 1/4 of the top will be blown off.
As we were watching the news, my friend patted my back and said,
“Good thing for you tol you’ve gone there and had seen the Mayon volcano in it’s full splendor.”
I recall I went there alone, because of that ridiculous 0 Peso fare of Cebu Pacific. Imagine, I only paid P59 and something something cents for a round trip from Cebu to Legaspi! My taxi fare from my house to the airport was thrice more than that!
I also recall I had second thoughts in going there, because the day before I left for Legaspi was also the day we arrived from a vacation trip in Siargao. But when I arrived there, boy, oh boy, I was GUILTY why I ever had doubts.
Who would not feel guilty if you land on an airport with a fantastic view of the Mayon volcano?

Now look at this smoking, angry Mount Mayon. On a lighter note, to turn Mount Mayon off, text MAYON OFF to 2336 for all networks. Hope it works. Ciao.

These photos are beautiful even though there is an underlying threat of eruption. Very nice photography.
I still remember when Pinatubo erupted. Metro Manila was covered in ash. It was uncomfortable to commute because the ash would make it hard to take a breath. Let’s see what happens. As for my Entrecard Friends list, you earned that. Thank you. Ingat Lagi! ;o)
