A few days ago, our band of bloggers was out of town again but this time it was different. It was a trip to discover our own mortality and how we should prepare for the reality of dying someday.

Being just a two-hour drive away, Pampanga is one of those places that's highly accessible from Manila.

But am telling you it's well worth the visit if you want something out of the ordinary from the hustle and bustle of HK. The entrance is impressive enough.
