Sunday, September 16, 2012



MAYON

Mayon Volcano is located in Albay province, rising 2,462 meters from the shoreline, Mayon comes from the Bicolano word "Magayon" means maganda or "Daragang Magayon" beautiful lady. The word itself portrays the true beauty of this grandeur of the perfect cone in shape Volcano. Mayon is an active volcano.



MAJESTIC

Mayon is already a very familiar volcano to every Filipino since elementary, every school have pictures of it to give the students a good presentation on how fortunate we are, we have this perfect cone in shape volcano to be found only in the Philippines... This time I have opportunity to see the Mayon in personal, a side trip from a work assignment in Legazpi City. Unfortunately my trip was coincident with a typhoon Karen that hit along the northern part of the Philippines, yet this part of region have been affected of cloudy and stormy weather. On my next post i will surely give better view of Mayon when the cloud is clear and she is ready to show up.


 LEGAZPI CITY

Legazpi City is the largest in the Bicol region, a capital of Albay province. It was became a City for the second time on June 28, 1948. The first city mayor was Jose Arboleda commissioned by President Elpidio Quirino. Legazpi became City finally for the third time on June 12, 1959.
