EDEN

I've been longing to visit Eden for the longest time. Lately, I've seen photos of people I know who went there. My time came... Just a few days ago. All thanks to the long weekend we had! Cornballs and his family invited me to tag along with them. I was so hyped because it was going to be a first for me.

Road trip to Eden started at 6 AM. I give credits to Google Maps for delivering us. Haha. When were getting nearer we turned off  the AC and opened the windows to feel and breath the fresh air. It made me happy. We arrived late for the reservations for the shuttle tour. It was already full. We didn't bother to call since the website said first come first serve. The next available tour was scheduled at 3 PM which was kinda late already. So we decided to stroll on our own. We were given maps. The temperature of the place made me happy. It was just right. 

Since it was a holiday there were a lot of different groups going on tour. Foreigners, senior citizens, students, and other tourists. We decided to get on with the adventure and went to the rides. We signed up for the Skycycle and Sky Swing. I really thought that the sky cycle was just like ziplining. I was wrong. It made me extra nervous. I was having trouble with my butt. I think their cycle's seat was a bit small! When I rode it and started pedaling I though I would slip out of it any moment. The cables were bouncing and I was going slow and it felt like forever to reach the other end! Hahaha. It was completely safe though. Well, at least I think it is. When we were near the end they took pictures of us and they'd say, "NO HANDs!" So that implies letting go of the handles. I just couldn't do it. I chickened out.

Ride after ride. We went straight to the sky swing. Signed another waiver and put on different set of protective gears. We were oriented on things to do. Just looking at the height of it my knees got weak. I was about to back out but you know... YOLO! Haha. We were set 95 meters high (If I'm not mistaken.) and on the second whistle we were released. It felt nuts! It was terrifying. Haha. It was worth it though. Epic ride.

After the YOLO-ing we went back to get some snacks. Then we looked for the butterfly garden but it started to rain. Cornballs and I went for it anyway. After a short stroll we ended our short trip and went to the city.

We're definitely going back for the tour.
