Tales From the Far North 2: The Boracay of the North(?)

Pagudpud calls itself "The Boracay of the North."

Come on, you can do better than that.

Pagudpud has a totally different terrain. It looks more like Astoria, Oregon. As if I've been to Astoria.

Well, it just looks so much like the sea in The Goonies (which was an eighties film that most youngsters today probably never even heard of). And all the time I was half-expect a pirate ship to come sailing out of the mountains or something.

Sea. Mountains. And an unmistakable northern climate. That and the very strong undercurrent that creates long stretches of foam. Just like the foam in Madonna's video "Cherish".

Pagudpud should never be called "The Boracay of the North". Pagudpud is Pagudpud, and Boracay is Boracay. So there.
