http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Joey and his one, horse-power jeepney set off with us rattling around inside on the 16 kilometer, 10 mile ride that would take 90 minutes. When you see the road in this video you'll understand only too well what I'm talking about! The four of us hung on for dear life to avoid being flung off the seats while sending up fervent prayers that the jeepney wouldn't slide off the road in the mud. The Hapao rice terraces are believed to be the place where the Ifuago began carving them over 3,000 years ago. These fields are irrigated by gravity to harness water from the forest above. (All the rain certainly didn't hurt either!) The village itself was a big miss. Everything is up-to-date and modern in the Philippines. The hoped for "cultural, tribal experiences" never did materialize. The scenery is gorgeous though... Please don't forget to Subscribe Share and Like. Thanks.
