Rowing and Shooting the Rapids on way to Pagsanjan Falls

Rowing to Pagsanjan waterfalls at Laguna bay is much more fun than standing under it.
It was a rainy day with clouds hovering and sudden burst of showers every now & then. Not a good day for camera. You can see droplets on camera lens though I kept wiping it whenever I could take the camera out.

Our canoe was attached to a motorized canoe which already had some more canoes & so our boat train 'chugged' forward. After 4 Kms, individual canoes were unhitched and the pedaling started.

Locals come in boat (floating shops) & try to sell some snacks. We also saw a tax collector on a floating platform who dutifully kept record of boats entering the arena and collecting taxes, since this area is protected by the environment department.
