The Chocolate Hills Adventure

When I was in elementary, we discussed in our Civics and Culture subject some of the Philippine's natural wonders. One of which I remember is the Chocolate Hills in Bohol. The Chocolate Hills is a geological formation composed of limestones. They are perfectly cone-shaped hills of almost uniform size spread over an area of 50 square kilometers. It is one of Bohol's famous tourist attractions.


As a ten year old kid, I can't help but but imagine how great it is to someday see the Chocolate Hills. I am a dreamer. In my young mind, I am certain that when I grow up, I will be photographed having as background those beautiful sceneries I see in the pictures. It was in January of 2008 that I finally set my foot on the Chocolate Hills. There are thousands of them all covered with grass. I was informed that the best time to go there is during summer because all the grasses have dried up by then and the hills are all brown -- just like chocolate.
I did not pass up the chance to make my dream a reality -- having my photograph taken with the Chocolate Hills in the background. The beauty of the hills made me and my husband jumped with joy!
