“Normal na po sa amin sa araw-araw na pasok ang tumatawid ng ilog, maglakad ng malayo at umakyat ng bundok. Pero naiiba ngayong araw at napakalaki ng ilog at napakalakas ng agos.

Salamat Sir Russel Balontong sa iyong Papa na syang naging instrumento ni Lord para ligtas tayong maitawid at makauwi. Buti nalang din mula sa itaas ay natanaw mo na sobrang lapad na ng ilog. Lagay loob tayo na mababa lang ang ilog sa pag uwi natin kasi ang hina naman ng ulan..

First time ko sumakay sa timbulan para tumawid ng ilog. 😢😱”
