Tagaytay

[lastlid]

I think It will be worth living there for a year despite of an active volcano But I won't worry too much because the volcano is quiet for sometime now

It's like a sleeping dragon though, JuveyJones.....

As far as I can see, the Taal cone is just a small part of the volcano itself. The lake it sits in is inside a much bigger volcanic cone. I am not sure dormant is the right word as it is really active, just not erupting just now.

It appears to be one of about 16 volcanos that have been designated by the experts as having a history of being destructive and and within close proximity to a large population.

LOL I know, scary isn't it? But I still love to go there, I pop there twice a month to unwind. My husband loved there also, in fact we had our honeymoon there and went up to the crater.

Are you in the Taal crater, in the pictures?

The day I went to Tagaytay it was a bit overcast / misty so visibility wasnt good. But I specifically asked my wife to take me there as I have a bit of an interest in that sort of thing. We went and with the whole family LOL! We just viewed it from the Peoples Park in the Sky. Would have been nice to get down into the lake and onto the Taal cone.

My wife and I spent our wedding night in Laguna in a hotspring resort there (another volcano I gather).

Yes That was in Taal crater. We went up there by boat and horse and took us 45 mins, fantastic experience although my bum was a bit painful when we get back to hotel

Yes It was a bit hot up there about 38-40 degrees celcius. But it was very windy too so not too bad
