DAVAO CITY — This seems like a no-brainer but it?s worth mentioning: When you travel cross-country make sure to bring an ice-filled cooler, even the ordinary Styrofoam ice chest fish vendors use. You?ll regret not bringing one, trust me.
It?s not because you can?t find ice-cold soft drinks or bottled water along the way. You can easily get these from convenience stores or eateries in cities and towns that you pass by.
The thing, however, is that, many of the nicest spots that you can enjoy while traveling by land from Mindanao to Luzon are in areas where there are usually no convenience stores or filling stations.
