Santa Ana, Luzon Philippines.

On of my goals this trip was to go to the very northern part of the Philippines,  Santa Ana, Luzon sits on the very tip of the Philippines. I went to visit a friend of mine who is working or the Peace Corp. Her name is Chelsea, she have been working at her post for three months. She works with DSDW, for a woman's shelter. She does wonderful things for this country and need to get away from the city, like most of us do when we need have a "get away". We went to this resort called Jotay, it's own by a British man and his wife who is  Filipino. It is a small place with 17 rooms next to the Pacific Ocean. The weather is on the average 5-10 degrees color so it was nice to get out of the heat and be next to the sea breeze.

We spent three nights four days there, the resort owner came to our table the first night we where there and greeted us. His name was Trevor, and told us that is going to give us a discount on our room because Chelsea was in the Peace Corp. What a way to start the trip! We took a boat trip to this light house that was settle by the Spanish. The boat trip was about 40 minutes to get to the lighthouse. We had to hike up to the lighthouse to see the view.

The view was awesome, and their was no one else there. After the hike to the lighthouse we went to the beach and soaked up the sun and went swimming. I would recommend this trip to anyone that comes to the Philippines and to stay at the Jotay Resort.

Enjoy the view from the top of the Philippines.
