I never thought I'll experience such an extreme water activity in my own province, the province of Albay. Albay is best known for its "perfect cone" Mayon Volcano and its native cuisine the Bicol Express. But now, Albay is getting known for the different tourist spots where you can swim in the white beaches, have a picnic and witness breathtaking views and experience extreme activities. One of which is the Water Rafting at Malinao, Albay.
Just a 45-minute drive from Legaspi City, you can already reach Malinao, Albay.

| Upon reaching the camp, we were able to take a wonderful picture with Mayon Volcano. |
We arrived at around 9AM at the camp and the tour guides will let you register first, gives you safety orientation about the activity and will let you sign a waiver. By the way the tourist guides are all friendly, accommodating and trustworthy.

| Safety gears are complete! :) |
We had a 20-minute trekk before we reached the calmest part of the river. The tour guides also have dogs which also serves as a tour guides as well and they're so cute!

| After 20 minutes of trekking, hola! We're good to go!Excitement are on our faces! :) |
 |
| Oh em gee! |
 |
| We survived! |
This is such a wonderful experience. I got a little nervous when the current is very strong, but I just shout and shout and shout! Like a roller coaster ride. Our water rafting lasted for about 20 minutes and all I can say is I wanna try it again and again and again. So guys! Come visit Albay and don't forget on your list to try this one!

In case you're wondering who's taking our pics, its the tour guides using our phones. They're good in taking pics right? :)
