After the exhilarating adventure at Dahilayan, we again rode the habal-habal to go back. But Kuya Bibot has a surprise in store for us. We stopped over at their house and we noticed him getting a knife. We were wondering why and then suddenly he turned towards the pineapple plantation. The knife was for cutting open a pineapple haha! We don’t know if this is legally allowed but Kuya Bibot just sauntered on, took a pineapple, and cut it open for us to have a taste. It was one of the sweetest pineapples I have ever tasted. It was such a unique experience to eat a pineapple in the middle of a pineapple field while looking around to see if someone would be catching us because of what we’re doing.

The weather in Bukidnon is very ideal for cultivation of pineapples (moderate dry season with average rainfall). Because of this Del Monte has a plantation placed there and is considered as the biggest pineapple plantation in the Far East. There are literally thousands of pineapples everywhere. The air is cool despite being sunny and it was such an enjoyable experience.

After that, we headed on back to the terminal and we rode a van going back to CDO. Originally, we didn’t plan any trip to Iligan but since we had time to spare, we went in Amazing Race mode and decided to try out Iligan City.
Next up, our travel to Iligan City.
