Mt. Kanlaon-Bacolod-Dumaguete-Siquijor Pre-Trip

I'm so excited!
We're going to climb Mt. Kanlaon next week from Oct 13 to 15, then will extend up to the Maskarra Festival up to Oct 22. And in between, we'll be touring Dumaguete and Siquijor.
I want to start packing for the Kanlaon trip actually, but I would think that I'm too excited haha
I've been reading up on Dumaguete, on Apo Island, and Siquijor. I'm not really sure we could do all we can because we would be tired from the Kanlaon trip... right? Realistically haha So I'm not counting on that much, but just in case we're up for it, at least I've read up on it hehe

And here's our proposed itinerary with estimated budget based on what I've read around. I've also included the people that would be traveling with us:

So many possible variations especially once we're in Dumaguete... And I should also take into account the body pain that we will be experiencing after the climb hehe

Anyway, I'll blog about our trip in two weeks time hehe I hardly think I could live life's adventures when I'm blogging hehe

I'm so excited, I bought an underwater camera (after 2 years of thinking about it! I was supposed to get one after passing the board exams hehe). My dad bought me some trekking poles that I have yet to try out. Darn, I want to start packing haha I'm going to buy later some waterproof bags and maybe an extra battery for my new camera hehe
