On our first day in Sagada, our guide thought that after a sleepless (bumpy roads, don't ask.) 12-hr drive, our bodies were so ready to go on a hike to Bomod-Ok falls. Don't get me wrong, I used to hike in College, but a little rest would've been apt, amiright? Right? Right? Please say yes because my sedentary lifestyle sure didn't help my legs that day. The trek wasn't difficult, to be honest. I would've preferred a short nap though to recharge myself.
Anyway, the reason I'm telling about that story is so that you understand how hungry I was after that tiring escapade. The trek was about 2-3 hours in total, and we also had time to swim at the falls. Did I mention it rained for some time while we were trekking? Yeah, good thing we had make-shift rain coats made out of garbage bags, lol. I don't have a photo wearing it because it doesn't necessarily scream photo-op ready. The trek made me weary as I was sleepless during the trip. After a nice, hot bath, all I wanted to do was eat like a Viking. Little did we know that most restaurants close shop at around 9PM. There was also a curfew being implemented so it felt quite lonely walking around looking for a place to eat. Strawberry Cafe wasn't on our list but it was the closest to our inn and thankfully, it was still open.
