Taal Volcano

            Taal Volcano and Taal Lake

Wow, I was totally surprised and a bit emotional to be back and see this volcano once more. In one of the first year's we visited the Philippines, we climbed on a donkey the beautiful green part, the Binintiang Malaki   (Big Leg), one of the dormant parts of Taal Volcano to the volcano lake.
Now, after so many years and totally unexpected we were near the volcano once more.
Unexpected? Yes, we wanted to go to another amusement park, called Enchanted kingdom, but when we got there, it was booked by a big compamy for the whole day (ofcourse, nothing was mentioned  of this on the internet, these things happen in the Philippines...), and to have some happy children in the car, we decided to go here, Sky Ranch, with the most magnificent views.

Taal is a very powerful volcano , the whole island is a high-risk area.
Despite the warnings, some families remain settled on the island, earning a living by fishing and farming crops in the rich volcanic soil 
It is in Calabarzon on the island Luzon, Philippines

Taal has erupted many times, ands in 2020 was a really big eruption ad and this natural disaster caused many problems.
And now it is so strange and a bit scary to see Taal back in this condition.
