The Caramoan Experience: last day


On our last morning in Caramoan, we woke earlier than usual to prepare our things. After breakfast, we were to head back to Naga. Once in Naga, we went to this Deer Farm. I was very excited to see deer!! Actually, it never occurred to me that there were deer in the country. They were very beautiful to look at and good to touch. Most are elusive and go scurrying once we walk toward them. But there are also some who are nice enough to come near us and let us pat their heads. It was almost noon and there were barely a tree in the farm so after quite some time, we headed back to the car to eat our lunch in our next stop. Before we reached the restaurant, we stopped to grab some snacks in this store offering toasted siopao. Our guide told us that the store and their products were famous in the area especially to the tourists who are used to steamed siopao. The breads they sell were also cheap.
               
After lunch we headed to the famous Camsur Water Complex or CWC to do some wakeboarding. As expected, there were many foreigners in the complex. Most of the ones I’ve seen riding the waves were foreigners. It was almost three in the afternoon and our guide told us that we would be leaving around 4 pm, so I decided to just watch others ride their boards. Some of my friends decided to try though the time was limited. We watched them being taught to ride unfortunately, only a couple of them learned. But it was a funny and nice experience. There was also pools in the complex aside from the two used for wakeboarding. The place was big with a variety of accommodations to choose from. There were huts, cottages and trailers to stay in and according to the brochure, they are being offered at a considerably low price. They are also offering foods and other services like massage. The fee for the wakeboarding was also low so some of my friends were really disappointed when they were not able to try the sport. It was past five when we left CWC and we were in a great hurry because the bus was coming soon. We stopped briefly in a souvenir store, headed to SM Naga to buy our food and then traveled back home.
