Here I am

135 kilometers and three and a half hours, door-to-door.

Arrived safely in the lovely town of Bauang in La Union after a long drive. Today’s Hash starts at 10, so I’ve got to dash out a quick update before heading out. Regular posting will resume tomorrow.

Some scenes from along the road:

The old Spanish gate on SBMA.
Rolling down the expressway.
Mount Arayat, an extinct volcano in Pampanga.
On the MacArthur highway in the province of La Union.
Entering Bauang.
Checking into our room at the Go Resort. We wound up in the same room we had last year.

The Hash festivities began with a gathering at the Blue Cat bar, one of my favorite venues in Bauang.

Hash Gash on the beach.

Sunset on the ocean is a different look than the ones I see back home.

The clouds added some color.
I like it!
Thanks for the show!

At the conclusion of the Blue Cat Hash gathering, the male Hashers were invited to gather at the only girly bar in town, Footloose.

Who am I to say no to such an invite?
I had to be discreet with my photography, but there was a lot more to see later in the performance, if you get my meaning.

So, no one has Zero beer in Bauang, and a long night of drinking SML left me somewhat out of sorts. It’s all a little fuzzy after that, but I did wake up in my bed this morning, so I guess things ended well, even if I don’t recall how I got there.

We’ll leave it at that for now. Gotta run, well walk, to the Hash meet-up.

  1. Ah, blackout drunk again at a hooker bar again. Glad to see you’re still in control of your actions and not going to places that “aren’t your thing.”

    May God have mercy on your soul.

    As I’ve said before: blackouts a couple of times a year. Well, good luck with that.

    Bauang looks gorgeous. Have fun celebrating the La Union Hash.
