Daily Report: Epril Goes Hiking And Visits Jesus

Epril hiked up a mountain today with her old high school classmates to see the Guadalupe Shrine in Tablon, and then over to see the Statue of Divine Mercy in El Salvador, part of Cagayan De Oro.

Epril says she had to cross 9 rivers to get to Guadalupe.



Epril hiked for 6 hours up the mountain and across 9 rivers, and took almost 100 pictures... but this is the only photo she got of the Guadalupe Shrine... so it will have to do. (All the rest of the photos were of her friends.)


After coming back down off the mountain, the group went to the statue of Divine Mercy... a large statue just to the East of Cagayan De Oro, with a lovely view of the ocean.

(If you wear shorts there, you will be provided a skirt to wear.)



In case you are wondering why I didn't go along, primarily the reason was that we were out at Zax last night until 1 a.m., and Epril was picked up by her friends at 4 a.m. for the 6-hour hike up the mountain. Even after a full night's rest, I wouldn't want to hike 6 hours up a mountain... but on 3 hours of sleep? No way.

Jil,
Come on..you know the real reason you didn't go is because you were worried you would like the skirt they give you to wear there! haha
Happy New Year

The skirt would have accented my calves quite nicely, I have to admit.
