Just came from aparri this morning. Left at 3am. Arrived Las Pinas 1pm. Inabutan lang ako ng traffic sa may Victoria Tarlac. Nung papunta ako nung Dec 19, left Las Pinas 3am. Arrived Aparri at 3:30pm. Traffic sa may Bayan ng Bayombong, Solano at peste ang traffic sa Santiago. Pagdating ko sa Tuguegarao i have to circum navigate yung loob ng tuguegarao kasi yung short cut papuntang Aparri baha, waist deep!
I made the trip leaving Antipolo at 315 am and reached Hannahs Resort by 330pm. Our trip is almost non stop, except for refuel and cr breaks. Its the several bridge repairs that prolonged the trip by 2hrs.
I think we were lucky as the queue was short and we won't have the advantage as we'll be taking the same route back at daytime.
As i checked google Map, it offers an alternate route through Bangued, Abra. Is it safe?
Bro daan ka nalang sa laoag mas safe.from laoag to pagudpud town proper mga 1-1.5 hr drive nalang
Theres a route from laoag to bangued, reconnecting to the MNL north road at narvacan. The terrain suggests a very long mountain trail. Methinks i need an armored infantry to take that road :-(
