Chocolate Hills




Here is a picture of the famous chocolate hills of Bohol. These are uprisings of limestone rock from volcanic action, that have been carved through into these similarly shaped mounds by years and years of water erosion. They are one of the many fascinating natural wonders of this island. Another is the "tarsier" monkey, which is no bigger than the palm of your hand and has the weirdest stare I've ever seen! Lastly, a picture of "Nuts Huts", the nipa hut guesthouse on the Loboc river where I am staying. The view in this picture is from this morning's climb up the hill.
