I have come to know the place because my  Nanay Epang was hailed here She'd often tag me along for a short vacation.  Their coffee trees, old houses, foggy mornings and nights, and the sweet candy "balikutsa" were among my fondest memories of it.  And just last  Saturday, out of boredom, I packed my bag, brought my camera and headed up there to revisit the old town that has gave me a lot of good  memories.
