We just walk around and look for our reserved cottage for holy week March 29 near at the wave pool. We don't come their to swim it's for reservation purposes. Sad to say no more available rooms for overnight, according to the receptionist since January all Overnight Rooms are no longer available for reservation. I thought were to early because last time we don't even have a cottage we just rent on common canopy. Which I don't like because of less privacy.

this would be our selection for our overnight stay, we can also bring tents for us. But it seems we have 3 months old baby we can't afford to sleep on the ground due to very cold temperature on the said vicinity.

Inspired by Eskimo's Habitat " The Igloo's house "

Inspired by Indian habitat culture. " The Indian Sunctuary " . You can also see totem poles as far as I can remember Indians put totem poles in front of their house serve as their protection from evil spirits.

Smoking in the said resort is not strictly prohibited, unless you smoke to designated smoking areas . For you to find the smoking place if you're a type of person cannot survive the day with out smoking. Find or look this dwarf mini figures there is a bench beside where you can sit and smoke. There is also a signage that tells you are on the right smoking area.

While walking I saw this raptor figure which is perfect for picture taking. There is a hole underneath and you can insert the half of your body that looks like you are inside of the mouth of this raptor. Look what we did together with my best friend.

" HELP !!! HELP!! HELP !! PLEASE HELP US!! "

Near to this raptor figure there is a " Karosa" as well that is about 20 steps away. I ride on the Karosa and my bestfriend took me photos. This one is immobilized if you want to ride a real horse or try horseback riding. You can ask the reception beside the " karosa " you can truly enjoy riding a horse accompanied by Campuestohan crew for 100 pesos per person just for 15 minutes.

DSCN5686.JPG

There is also a Hamster ride.. That is 150 pesos per person good for one way. I tried that before and it's not advisable if you have fear of heights. like zip lines which you need enough courage to try that activities. Face your fears and try this activity you will not die by simply hanging yourself on cables, walking above ground or trying pedaling your bicycle on the sky.

If you are fun of swimming you can try the Shark Wave pool or the bubble shower pool. The wave produce by a powerful machine and creates real waves while the bubbles showered like snow creates/spreads by bubble cannon. These machines operates based on the operating schedule. For you to know if these fun activity is about to operate you will hear a sound like ferry, which is loud enough that all people can hear in the said resort.

The wave pool spot is also the best for taking pictures because of the beautiful mountain background. Highly recommended as well for children, there a lot of watcher within the wave pool area. I f you don't want to hear a whistle from them better follow the rules. no slippers allowed, wear proper swimming attire, follow your designated where you can swim, kids are not allowed to swim alone in restricted areas. always follow the rules and guidelines.

Bringing of food is allowed, you don't have to worry about the corkage fee. But if you forgot to bring your food there is a restaurant that can cater your hunger and expect that price is quite expensive. Since the Campuestohan highland resort is under renovation. We have limited areas that we can go and take pictures. See you on March 29 because according to the staff of the said resort everything will be finished before the Holy Week and they already anticipated that there's a lot of visitor and tourist will come on that day..
