The Message In the Bottle
Patar, Bolinao taken May 2018 There's this point in our life where we kinda want to escape "adulting" and just be away from all the buzzes of work life. If we are from Benguet, a few hours drive to the tip of Pangasinan would be very ideal. Here's where Bolinao steals the limelight. It says in the internet, Bolinao is North's Boracay, aside from Pagudpod in Ilocos Norte. I remember visiting this place back in the 90's. Everywhere you set your eyes on, you'd just say, "Wow!". Mangroves or bakawan were all over the place. You'd see different colored fish swimming around your feet in the shallow waters. The sands looked like night sky with all the starfish and shells scattered. Early morning was like a dream; with all the bio-luminiscent planktons that made the shore glow. It was enchanting. So, fast forward to May 2018. It was an exciting long drive to Patar. When I strolled to the shore, it was- disappointing. I wanted to email DENR Se
