Mount Bulusan: The Artist

Bulusan sky is a canvas for the unexpected cloud formations that form around the volcano. If you are lucky enough to chance upon some remarkable formations be sure  to get your camera ready for it changes within minutes. The volcanic heat causes these remarkable cloud shapes and forms. It is a daily treat for me living in a house with an azotea fronting a view of the dome-shaped Bulusan Volcano. (Bulusan, Sorsogon, Philippines)

Mount Bulusan Azotea View: Like a Breast without a Nipple

Viewed from our house azotea, Mount Bulusan looks like a maiden's breast without a nipple. Sometimes it is covered with a soft bra-liked form of clouds and sometimes none at all. The mood of the volcano seems to dictate what type of cloud to wear for the day. As for the nipple--there is no need for one. Her arteries instead supply the freshest of water to our tap and the rest of the communities around her.

Full Moon Concert by the Beach

Reggae music and Pinoy rock blend well in the clubhouse ambiance of Villa Celeste Resort in Bulusan. The full moon provides the finishing touches. The beer is flowing, too, as you soak in the cool night air from the beach beside it. Watch out for the 2nd Rakrakan music festival on March 31, 2013. (Bulusan, Sorsogon Philippines)

note:  The organizers cancelled the concert this March, 2013.

Coconut Grove by the Beach

Fronting a spacious 'hubasan' where one can gather lokog, buskay, gulaman and lato, this coconut grove in Dancalan is the perfect hideaway for an afternoon siesta. The breeze is soft for an undisturbed napping. Bring bahaw with you for that afternoon hunger pangs. (Bulusan, Sorsogon, Philippines)
