part3: pagbilao, lucena, atimonan
alright. i'll just be honest and admit that the reason why i've been putting of this entry is because i forgot the name of the place where we had merienda. haha! but basta, when you take that turn-off before reaching pagbilao town proper, it's the first resto and park you'll see on your left. there's a huge sign, so non-ulianins unlike me will be sure to remember the name.
we stayed there for a bit to decide what next. this place is interesting naman as it has those stilts-ed huts that stand in the water. and you can hear the water lapping under you as you eat. they went a bit further by putting in a nautical theme- the hut's front was shaped like a boat's prow. we also found the food conveyor from the kitchen (up in the hill) to the dining hut (down in the water) cute - it was in the shape of a little red plane.
they had a few aircon family rooms for rent - P2k++ but as we weren't thrilled by the view or the place, we decided to just look for a cheaper place in lucena, then head for atimonan early the next day. pagbilao's coast, we realized, is primarily a fishing area.
what could be cheaper than free?
fortunately, D's mother's family maintain a house in Lucena. and again, fortunately, we bumped into D's uncle right as we were walking on the stilts-ed walkways. what an unlikely place to bump into anyone.
having arranged free accomodations for the night, we wondered what there was to do in Lucena. being primarily city-folk, we made a beeline for..tada..SM Lucena. i ended up buying a frisbee and a kite in Toy Kingdom ;p
ho-hum. anyway, the next morning, we pulled ourselves out of bed and drove through the town of Lucena (missed Buddy's Pizza), Pagbilao again and inadvertently took the diversion road to the Atimonan coast.
