Few more days and off I go to the neighboring island of Negros. Our main IT for this trip is to visit The Ruins in Talisay City and the ancestral houses in Silay.
But in between those main agenda, I have included these Things to Do in Silay and Talisay City:
1. Sip the hottest native coffee ( this way I can enjoy my conversation with someone).
2. Eat breakfast outside of our pension house before the break of dawn..in the town square perhaps?
3. Walking cardio exercise along the sugarcane plantation going to The Ruins.
4. Gaze at The Ruins as the orange rays of the sun illuminate it.
5. Eat the famous Guapple Pie of El Ideal Bakery in Silay City.
6. Give a boring on-the-spot History lesson to the photographer on “The Rise and Fall of the Sugar Industry in Negros” as we traverse the 2.4 kilometer rough road going to The Ruins.
7. Getting lost while commuting.
8. Feel or see some ghosts or any paranormal beings in the ancestral houses.
9. Roam around Silay City late at night until we can hear the cocks singing their morning songs.
10. Take photos, have great conversations and write some interesting tales.

Even before the neo-colonialism of Starbucks in the country and the pop culture of drinking coffee; Negrenses as the locals are known have been enjoying their coffee all throughout the day and households roast and brew their own coffee. And so when I started planning for our trip, I was listing down coffee as one of the “things to do”. [...]
