This kind of beach outing that my students and I have was planned around 1 week or so. That's how short noticed it is.

Anyways, 3 of my students were talking about banana ride and how cool it is and all of us should ride on it. They were talking about 32 USD for 30min ride on the banana ride (in reality its only for 15mins.) I did not say yes or even give them a no to banana ride.

However, almost everytime we discuss our beach outing, the banana ride is always mentioned. That really did struck me that they were so eager to have that banana ride.

Even when we ride on our vehicle, they were insisting to have that banana ride until we reached the beach resort. My students are really persistent, they will never stop unless I give in. Still I remained firm and did not say a yes or a no.

Did I agree to their request???

Oh you have shark phobia? You would surely enjoy the banana ride. The sea looks dark blue already and I know it's very deep:) I forgot about the sharks when we had the banana ride, I was just scared to fall.

I have a shark phobia in the sea. I couldn't go so far from the beach. Anyhow it looks funny.

Laoag History

During the later parts of the 16th century, Spanish missionaries resettled the natives of Laoag from their previous location in Ermita Hill to the modern day location. This was mainly because the colonizers wanted to improve the living conditions of the Laoag natives. The Spanish friars took over the design of the new city. They planned it using a grid iron pattern with the plaza, church, convent and tower located in the middle. They then instructed the natives to construct their houses in marked off locations while grouping them in barrios that mainly consisted of relatives. Each barrio was then given a patron saint....
