More Asik Asik Pictures

My daughter Martha came home for the holy week. Aside from religious observance of church activities, the high light of her stay was going to Asik Asik Falls at Dado, Alamada, North Cotabato. It was a long ride to Dado and the trek was not an easy one. Thanks to Carlo Songcayauon a professional rescuer friend for coming with us at my request. He made the trip confidently physically easy for us. Here are more pictures from the excursion:

Asik Asik Falls was discovered after a big storm. The fallen down balete trees uncovered  the beautiful curtain falls.

Awesome God's work!

Clear and clean water.

More crowds coming in. After lunch we decided to head back for the sky was becoming overcast.

Half way scenery with the overcast sky. Beautiful isn't it!

After the picnic lunch at the falls, we decided to head back as the sky was getting cloudy. On our way up, there were even more people going down. I was glad we came to the falls earlier during the day. In the afternoon the falls would be teeming with people and the place getting dirtied by undisciplined picnickers which were sadly and sickeningly aplenty. People should know how to keep this place and their environment clean!!!
