We had a sumptous meal of Pinakbet and pugita (baby octapus) for lunch. I was hesitant at first pero go na. It tasted like the regular adobong pusit but the meat was a little bit rubbery. And of course, the Pinakbet was superb that we ordered another serving.
The waves crashing on the shore infront of the eatery added to the beautiful coastal scene. Locals were patiently throwing their nets on the shore. I just love everything about this hole-in-the-wall experience.

Upon reaching the enigmatic Cape Bojeador, I was blown away. It was first lit on March 30, 1892, and is set high on Vigia de Nagpartian Hill overlooking the scenic Cape Bojeador where early galleons used to sail by. After over 100 years, it still functions as a welcoming beacon to the international ships that enter the Philippine Archipelago from the north and guide them safely away from the rocky coast of the town.

I'm a sucker for historical shizz and I got a lot of stares from other visitors(mostly students) as I gently inspected the details of its walls. If only it could talk, I'll let it confide all of its secrets and not worry if it'll take a lifetime to cover them all. With a 360 view like this, why not? ;)
Kuya Arnel said we had other places to visit pa but we opted to go home sooner and just stop over the town proper to buy some supplies .
And what else would be better than ending the day watching the Pagudpud sunset in all its glory.
