Last night, when i was browsing SINJIN'S Blog page. I was so attracted to his header's photo and it was a volcano. Immediately, I remember my experience when i was in 2nd year high school. We visited the crater of the famous Taal volcano, it was an unforgettable experience for me because going inside to see the crater is a privilege. We walk in the forest for a couple of hours just to reach the peak and then you will again walk downward just to reach the side of the crater. But all of your sacrifices will be rewarded when you see the beautiful surroundings inside the crater. Actually its not really magma or lava that's flowing inside the crater during ordinary days but instead its only sulfuric water that is in the upper portion or the lake portion of the crater. And one thing that caught my attention was the big rock in the center of the crater, no one from our tour guide can explain well why there was rock in the center of the crater lake. Unfortunately after walking for so many hours we can't stay longer inside the crater because its about to rain and its dangerous because our pathways will be slippery and the craters lake is going up. Just to be safe we just followed the instruction of the tour guides. Again it was indeed an unremarkable experience.
