 Sun.Star Dumaguete - A short adventure in Mabinay
EARLY morning of September 11, we packed our bags for a brief adventure in Mabinay, Negros Oriental, a highland inland municipality straddling some of the province's remaining virgin forests and pockmarked with caves for spelunking enthusiasts.
The road to Mabinay snakes and wounds starting from the national highway in Bais City and goes up and up, negotiating hillsides to a point where the land and the sky seem to meet.
The ride aboard the passenger-jampacked bus was exhilarating as we savoured the fresh, cool and clear air and watched the Bais lowlands, the sparkling blue sea and several islands in the distance recede, eventually disappearing among the rugged hills.
