St. John the Baptist Church Calamba, Laguna When we got there, it was only the time did I realize that we've already attended a mass there after swimming at a hotspring in Pansol, Laguna.

St. Agustine Church/ Simbahan ng Bay Bay, Laguna

Interior of Simbahan ng Bay After this, we were supposed to go to St. Anthony de Padua / Church of Pila but ironically we lost our way when we were about the visit the patron saint of those who have lost things. We found a church on the way but it isn't a part of the Laguna Loop so I am not posting it here.

So went to Pagsanjan which turned out to be our last stop for that day because of the heavy traffic in the area. One national government official and one local government official (not naming names but may God bless their souls and their heartfelt desire to serve us Filipinos!) were there that time so they had a lot of escorts and guards that made the already crowded area more congested.

Our Lady of Guadalupe Church Pagsanjan, Laguna

Do you also believe that lighting up candles of different colors (based on what you're praying for) is more effective than just lighting a white candle?

Charot. :))) I'll try to embed maps in my travel posts from now on. I've plotted the locations of all the seven churches. You may click on the letters to know the names and details of the churches.

This was our room. 2 bunk beds and 1 pull out bed. It was an okay room but we had two problems with it. 1. They did not provide blankets. 2. 'Yung aircon namin, nasa bandang baba kaya hindi naka-circulate 'yung lamig. Dun ako natulog sa taas kaya ang init. Akala ko naman mahina lang 'yung aircon, only to find out when we were exchanging stories in the morning na 'yung mga nasa baba e hindi rin naman masyadong nakatulog kasi sobrang lamig naman pero hindi nila mapatay 'yung aircon dahil sobrang maiinitan naman kaming nasa taas.

No water heater but it's fine. Hindi naman sobrang lamig dun para maging essential ang water heater.

Party party sa gabi. May kasama ng water dispenser,refrigerator, lpg, water saka karaoke dun sa binayad namin.

Sa compound ng Villa Kitane, pwedeng share 'yung dalawang group. Kung ano 'yung facilities na meron sa side nila, meron din sa'min kaya dedma lang. Unlike the other hotspring that I went to, walang stones and fishes dito at okay talaga aesthetics wise. Okay dito kung swimming sa hotspring ang gusto with friends/family saka private. Pero 'yung pag naghahabol ka ng therapeutic properties, syempre mas okay dun sa isa.

Good morning, Mt. Makiling!!! I don't know what the rates are kasi hati-hati na 'yung binayaran namin.  And... you can find them on facebook because I don't have their contact number. :)

Laguna Hot Spring Mineral Spring Water since 1946. Mas mashonda pa sa Mudra ko. Sabi niya pa nga, dito raw sila dinadala ng mga Lola't Lolo ko nung bata pa sila pero lumilipat daw sila ng tita ko sa ibang resort na malapit kasi puro masho-shonda 'yung naliligo dito at hindi nga ko binigo ng Laguna Hot Spring. :)))) Halos puro masho-shonda nga. Pero 'yun nga, someone's gotta do it. Bridge the generation gap. :)) 'Yung mga pool kasi na mae-enjoy namin, hindi naman nila mae-enjoy at vice versa.

Pagkakita ko ng pool... "ANMERON? LIPAT NA TAYO PLEASE. NOW NA. " Basag na 'yung ibang tiles tapos pag titignan mo pa na ganyan 'yung nililiguan... Ugh sige, matutulog na lang ako.  Buti na lang may aircon 'yung ni-rent namin na room. Bawi bawi din sa tulog.

Ayan naaaa. Sabi ko pa nga, "Lublub for experience." Bakit may bato? May isda pa. Huhuhuhu. Nakakaiyak. Pero pagkatapos lang ng halos 10 minutes na pag-iinarte at nang makarating na ko sa gitna banda. "OMG! HEAVEN." hahahahahahaha Naging masarap na sa paa pag inaapakan 'yung mga bato. Naging masarap na liguan 'yung tubig kasi fresh. Galing sa yuck naging ayoko na umahon pls. :))) 'Yung experience dito sa Laguna Hot Spring ay pinaghalong Ace Water Spa link: here at Fish Spa ng Manila Ocean Park link: here. Whole body na fish spa na nga, mas mura at siguradong mas malinis pa dahil flowing water. 'Yun nga lang, hindi kasi aesthetically appealing/pleasing 'yung pool lalo pag nasanay sa magandang resort na may maayos na tiles at hindi mukhang brown/putik 'yung tubig sa malayo. Pero aanhin mo 'yun, give love a chance. ANORAW?!  At para sa masho-shonda (Sorry pooooooo), okay lang naman, hindi nakakailang na maki-stay dun kasama nila. (Sorry po ulit! Ang judgmental ko.) Pwede din siguro ipa-renovate ng management 'yun kahit papaano. Maganda naman ang rooms saka shower at dressing areas nila, pool lang talaga ang deal breaker sa umpisa.

Note: HINDI PO SILA TILAPIA. Baka lang may bumili e kasalanan ko pa kapag kinain kayo ng tilapia.  'Yan 'yung stones then mga doctor fishes na hindi ako pinansin ng madalas. Alam mo kung bakit sila snobber? Kasi wala ko masyadong dead skin cells. Imsoproudopmyselp. Then dun sa isang part ng pool, merong bukal. As in, bet na bet 'yung init ng tubig na umaagos mula dun. Then sa isang part din sa bandang area na 'yun, biglang lalamig 'yung tubig. Uyy, healthy rin daw ang alternate init at lamig pagka ganyan eh. Nung pinaahon na nga kami habang nakaupo ako dun sa area na 'yun at feel na feel ang kainitan ng tubig, "HA? UWI NA?" Ayan, so for documentation purposes:

They have a canteen inside the resort should you opt not to bring food.

Here's the description posted near the entrance. They claim that they're the only natural hot spring with volcanic cinder flooring. Sabi nila na therapeutic 'to diba, makiki-oo lang ako dun kasi nawala nga 'yung sakit ng katawan ko tas na-relax pa. Kaya 'to pinupuntahan lalo ng mga senior citizens dahil sa therapeutic properties nung hot water saka ng stones. Sabi daw nakaka-lessen talaga ng pain lalo na 'yung mga may arthritis na.

Opposite nung bukal, merong massage and scrubbing area. Dun lumalabas 'yung tubig kaya okay lang na may naliligo dun kahit may sabon at shampoo pa ha.

We rented Kamagong Room for P 2,600.00

RATES!

Para makita mo ang itsura ng reklamadora. :))) Uyy, na-rosy cheeks kaya ako pagkatapos ko mag swimming.
