HISTORY: A Take on 450 steps to the First Cross Planted in the Philippine Soil

Amazing! Yes it is, Steemian! I feel that I am part of the history when I got the chance to witness by myself when I had my tour in the island of Limasawa and was able to attend its spiritual 496th founding anniversary last March 31, 2017.

I am so excited that at last I had the utmost of my time travelling since mostly I engaged it on duties at work and studying with my Masters Degree. I got the chance to travel to the Island and I'm loving it so much because it was a time of adventure for my self (I am an adventurous person) and all the wind and breeze coming from the sea. Oh, it feels like a total relief from the city's lifestyle.

Holy Mass

When we got to the Limasawa Island, huge crowd of people fascinated the whole Island since it was the celebration of feast and a holy mass shrine was taken place.

I have got my first activity thrill there and was quite similar to mountain climbing, a very challenging and sweaty activity, the 450 steps to the first cross planted in the Philippine soil.

I feel blessed that I was able to experience this spiritual feel and I had my aimed adventure as well came into reality, a very memorable yet A very scenic treasure that one must have to experience once in a lifetime.
