Journey to the Center of the... Garden!

Hey, everyone!

You must be familiar with the movie "Journey to the Center of the Earth", right? That's where our title "Journey to the Center of the Garden" came from. So, naturally, this post is all about the Makiling Botanic Garden.

After going to IRRI, we moved on to the Makiling Botanic Garden (MBG), our last destination (sob). When we got there, most of our batchmates and classmates decided to play Bang Sack before we explored the MBG. 
But the Minigurus expected that we would learn a whole lot more about plants, just like at the Institute of Plant Breeding. We did learn to be extra careful when we were going down the garden because the cemented steps were wet. (it sure was a huge garden!). 
We kept hiking down to see what was in the center of the garden. But, sadly, when we got there, very anxious to see the center, all we saw were a few people gathered around trees and then stairs leading to the way up.
Dripping wet and tired, we all hit the bus searching for drinks and extra shirts.
Of course, when we got home, we were all tired but all of our expectations were met (thanks to our teacher!). The greatest lesson we all learned was to take good care of our biodiversity and to be very careful.  We will never forget this learning experience because this is so far the best field trip we've all ever been to, and we hope there's more, and we will also never forget this field trip because we all had so much fun especially bonding with our friends and teachers. Thanks again T.Rye, you're the best! :)

The Minigurus will never forget this fun field trip! There were fun times, and tiring experiences. But we had a good time. In fact, it was about seven or eight in the evening when we arrived back at school. We learned a lot from the trip, and hopefully, dear readers, you will too.
