Weekend Trip: Pandin Lake

Last Sunday was spent in a serene environment that is Pandin Lake. It was one of the seven lakes located in San Pablo, Laguna. Together with my friends, we hopped on a jeep from the city proper of San Pablo going to Pandin, which is just several minutes away. When we arrived, we did a bit of trekking leading to the lake. And the moment I saw it, I felt like all the exhaustion from walking under the blazing sun was all worth it. We were welcomed by the fresh breeze, luscious greenery, clean waters, and warm and friendly locals.

While waiting for the boatmen to arrive, we had some fun taking pictures while on a bamboo raft. 

We then transferred to another bamboo raft. Here's picture with our two boatmen in the background setting up our food.

When we arrived on the other side of the lake, we stayed under the shades of the mangroves. Oh, and look at how green the water is! 

Sitting on the raft and gazing at the beauty of Pandin was indeed a very relaxing experience. Hope I can go back there again soon. =)
