Another adventure unlocked! Our long-time plan finally came true—we finally “colored” our drawing, haha. The long wait is over—we finally hiked to Starbucks Banawa. It was such a great experience because we started at sunset and arrived at night.
This was us meeting at Paseo, where the road going to Starbucks begins. Everything was ready, and we were just waiting for our one friend from the USA.
We had so many funny conversations and “what ifs” along the way—what if we couldn’t make it up the mountain because it was so steep? What if we slipped on the rocky path since it was so slippery? 😂
One of my friends even brought a stick because she already felt like the climb would be difficult.
Our first destination was Good Shepherd, and honestly, we were already out of breath at that point—but we kept going because our goal was to reach the top of Banawa!
While heading toward our goal, we were having so much fun—singing, laughing, and just enjoying the moment.
It was all worth it, even though our knees were hurting since it was our first time. Still, we made it!
And finally, after more than two hours, we reached our goal—the top at Starbucks. It was so beautiful at night. We got to see the city lights and buildings of Cebu—such an amazing view.
It was truly a memorable experience because even though it was hard, we didn’t give up. Next time, we’re aiming for another hike—Spartan is the next goal! But of course, Starbucks first again. The adventure wouldn’t be complete without my dabarkads. 😂
