December 27, 2008, i woke up 4 in the morning and fixed my self for an out of town trip. know what? we're going to lobo, batanggas. i waited for abby at the gasoline station and after a few minutes she arrived and together we ate "goto" for breakfast at the "palengke" while waiting for kuya rox.
after 30 minutes, kuya rox arrived with her wife ate dolor, and their kids blessie and carl, also with them was kuya chris. we left pulilan at around five in the morning. we arrived in lobo at around nine in the morning and waiting for us was a bountiful breakfast (penaes, tulingan, adobo, bulanglang and sinangag) prepared by kuya boy and pareng oda. after breakfast, we went to pareng oda's place and there we ate buko and dalanghita (takaw ko, walang kabusugan). we also went roaming around their village. and then came lunch, whewwwww, sinigang na sugpo with steamed tilapia? what could i ask for? jejejejeje, i almost ran out of my breath eating, jejejejeje (takaw talaga). after lunch, we went to the beach and enjoyed the beauty of it. we also had some bottles of beer (or should i say some cases of beer) with matching mouth wartering steamed chicken cooked by pareng oda. we really savored the beach, we sang all night and the best part was i drank to much beer (lasenggero), hahahahahaha.
well, it is not the food and the drinks that i really enjoyed, but it is the hospitality that our hosts showed us. i discovered that kuya boy (our very own boy diesel) is a very good cook. his wife, ate miriam, is one of a kind. she never forget to let us feel at home. pareng oda, was also a very good host. and most of all, lobo is a very beautiful place. you can feel the freshness of its air and the peacefulness in the atmosphere. there is a welcoming ambiance in every corner of the place. there is something in lobo that makes you feel at home.
