Day 3: Surigao City to Gingoog City

This is the shortest leg of our journey so we were not in a hurry to leave early. Bobby and I sat by the shore as we waited for the breaking of dawn. We thought of having a quick dip but the beach was not too inviting. Perhaps we were just excited to reach our final destination.

After our breakfast in the city, we started hitting the road at 8 a.m. We could have reached Gingoog City by noon but we decided to have lunch in an eatery by the beach approximately 20 km from the city. The homecooked dishes were gone in a few minutes and the driver got to lie on a hammock as we breathed in the sea breeze and admired the view of Camiguin island on the horizon.

At 12:38 p.m., we reached our destination. We're very happy to see our loved ones in Gingoog City. This is going to be our first Christmas with them.

By the way, the odometer registered 1,237.9 km. Hurray to the best ever driver in the whole wide world and thank you, Lord, for your traveling mercies.
