Mt. Pinatubo Day

Mt. Pinatubo Day is a non-working holiday in Pampanga. Every 15th of June, commemorate the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo that has been overcame by the Kapampangan people. 1991 - 1995 of struggled with Mt. Pinatubo. June 15, 1991 the 2nd strongest volcanic eruption of the 20th century after 1912 volcanic eruption in Novarupta in Alaska Peninsula. It turned the day into night, and that is the longest night I ever experienced in my life. And with Typhoon Yunya lava turned lahar. A flash flood of hot water and soil that buried lots of villages and towns in Pampanga, Zambales and Tarlac. Raining of light marble size of rock, sand and dust / ask. It turned my hair into grey and sweat of chocolate over the face of some people. Many said, "Is this the end of the World?!" Terrifying experienced El Terible!, that time I'm going 15 years of age. In that era I'm sicked of coughing in space of three weeks. The event led to evacuation of tens of thousands of people. The ashes fell in West Philippine Sea & South China Sea, From Ilocos - Cagayan Region down to half of Mindanao. Then as far as Malaysia, Vietnam & Cambodia oh dust in the wind. The atmospheric effect up to Europe and Latin America that produced cold wave.

Tubbataha

Tubbataha Reef - an atoll coral reef located in Sulu Sea of the Philippines. It is a marine sanctuary protected as Tubbataha Reef National Marine Park. It is nominated at the New 7 Wonders of Nature. 98 nautical miles (181 km) southeast of Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. Tubba and taha, which together means "a long reef exposed at low tide". The reef is made up of two coral atolls divided by an eight-kilometer (5 miles) wide channel. The South Atoll, the smaller of the two is five kilometers in length and three kilometers in width; while the North Atoll, the larger of the two is 16 kilometers (9.9 mi) long and five kilometers (3 miles) wide. Each reef has a single small islet that protrudes from the water. The atolls are separated by a deep channel 8 km (5.0 mi) wide.

There are no permanent inhabitants of the islets or reefs. Fishermen visit the area seasonally, establishing shelters on the islets. The park is visited by tourists, particularly divers. Trips to Tubbattaha from mid-March to mid-June are all vessel-based; the park is about twelve hours by boat from Puerto Princesa City. Tubbataha is considered as the best dive site in the Philippines and the diving dedicated ships that operate during the "Tubbataha Season" are usually booked years in advance especially during the Asian holidays of Easter and "Golden Week".

Tubbataha has become a popular site for seasoned sports divers because of its coral "walls" where the shallow coral reef abruptly ends giving way to great depths. These "walls" are not only wonderful diving spots but they are also wonderful habitats for many colonies of fish. Over 1000 species inhabit in the reef; many are already considered as endangered. Animal species found include sea turtles, manta rays, sharks, lion fish, barracudas, Moorish idols, clown fish, dolphins, whales etc. Aside from being a marine sanctuary, Tubbataha is also renowned for being a bird sanctuary. A lighthouse islet, at the southern tip of the South Atoll, supports a large number of seabirds which nest there. Around the Tubbataha, there are tens of thousands of masked red-foot boobies, terns, and frigate birds resting during their annual migrations. This is a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. One of the most beautiful reef around the world.
