Philippines Day 8: Maasin… Oops!

“Don’t drink too much”, I told my friend. “we have to get early to catch the ferry to Bohol”. Yet still I am here in Maasin. Apparently I was using old information on when the ferry leaves from Maasin. Instead of leaving at 8:00am it leaves at 7:30pm. That put a huge kink in our plans. But that is fine, since we were late entering Maasin yesterday, we got take the hike up to Hanginan. This is a pilgrimage to a church on the top of a hill. Since it was not planned I hiked using sandals and my backpack stuffed with a laptop and a lot of equipment. It was a hard journey in the heat, but a good challenge. Now to kill some time. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do in Maasin?
