The sun picked a bad time to be shy and just hid behind the clouds during sunrise but nonetheless the view was still great.Kiltepan Peak Sunrise

The adventurous Aussies went straight to Sagada from the airport just so they could enjoy what the locals had to offer.We headed out to eat our last meal in Sagada in Kimchi Restaurant and visited Sagada Weaving to see the intricate and detailed handiwork of the locals.
We weren't able to catch any of the weavers since it was a Sunday but we were still able to view the weaving devices, the daughter of the owner was nice enough to show us around. Sagada Weaving has been around since the 1960's and is the first store of its kind. The weavers normally make 2 to 3 meters of cloth in an 8 hour work day. The intricate design and attention to detail makes the process of weaving painstakingly slow. The weavers also do not like being photographed, so if you want to have a picture with them you should ask permission first. Many have opened their own weaving stores but nothing beats the original. After packing our bags, we headed for home but not until we made a side trip to the famed Banaue Rice Terraces.
