Part 5 of a series.
DAY 1.
3:42pm. After our visit to the Basilica of Our Lady of Peñafrancia, we left Naga City and immediately headed further south to Legazpi City, Albay, the home of the mighty Mayon Volcano.
4:46pm. When we reached Iriga City, Camarines Sur, we could already see the Mayon Volcano to think that Iriga was still several kilometers away from Legazpi City, Albay, so it could really be said that the Mayon Volcano is huge and massive. We got more excited at what we saw. The volcano was even emitting smoke, an indication that the volcano is really active.

5:07pm. The view of Mayon got clearer and clearer as we got nearer and nearer to Legazpi City, Albay.
