Weather in Bicol was so unpredictable during my stay.
It will be sunny. It will be rainy.
Sometimes, simultaneously!
I sure won’t be betting my bottom dollar if there would be sun tomorrow.

Despite the weather, I was still able to capture Mayon.. But this was the best I could get..

Every day, I was blessed to eat these Bicol specialties for breakfast.

They’re usually best topped with Dinuguan (Blood Soup?). I don’t know why, but I never liked it. I just want my Pancit plain, but served with puto! These are the traditional rice steamed puto in Bicol. It’s made of pulverized rice (instead of flour), and caramelized coconut as its filling.

Best to eat ‘em this way:
