Destination: Taal Volcano - 9

It was almost 11:30am when we decided to return to Talisay. For sure, this will be another adventure for all of us since we were going to have another horse ride down the mountain.



When going down the mountain, this time, you have to lean backwards in order to balance the ride. It was a good experience because from time to time, little lessons could be learned along the way.



Our downhill ride was a bit slow because it would be a dangerous one if you are going to hurry given the nature of the place. Sharp rocks and narrow pathways should be carefully considered and you should be extra careful not to get hurt in the process.



Since the trail was dry and when riders converged all together, dusts freely fly all over the place. You must have something to cover your nose or even your face.



There was one funny moment during our downhill ride. There was a lady tourist who rode a small horse. If the horse could only say its piece, for sure, it will not take the lady for another ride. There was an instance in the trail when the horse seemed to lost its balance because of its load. Luckily, the guide was quick enough to help the horse and they had to stay stationary for a while in order for the horse to regain its balance, allowing other riders to move ahead of them.
