DBP Roro Inter-island Adventure Race - Day 7 part 1
We traveled to Camarines Sur and had late dinner in Lucban, Quezon.We werent told what time to get ready so we were all on edge. We slept after dumping the clothes that we didnt need and after getting the hotel staff to dry our shoes.In the morning, the last day, we were given breakfast and then brought 
to this chemical plant. After going into the depths of the area, we were released for the last elimination leg. We were third to leave. The task was to grab one of the available vans and run to the market. At the market, our task was to grate out 3 kilos of coconut. Mind you, we need to get 3 kilos of shredded coconut meat and not just grate out 3 kilos of coconuts. It was slow going at first since we didnt know how to do this. I had to keep going since ryza could grate out at a slower rate and williamson was even slower than she was. After a while, through my faucet like sweating, i managed to get the right technique and finished the 3 kilos. We were then supposed to run to the DBP office nearby and finish. We were still third. The last team got eliminated and we were among the final four to compete for the million. Ryza was feeling bad i think because only Randy of team sikatuna was there for her to help her get her bearings and breath. I only got to check up on her after i myself recovered. Siguro naman i deserved to rest since i did most of the backbreaking grating. Gulo na yung team namin. I was afraid that Ryza would throw in the towel. Will was messing with the cameras again and just having his own fun. I was so tired that i could barely eat and drink. I just slept and slept until the next and final task.
After some time, the other people and other eliminated teams were sent ahead to manila via a bus. We were isolated on the grounds and had guards on us. We werent supposed to talk to anyone or call anyone. Then we were given our 3rd to the last task. Prior to that, we were assigned a 5th member of the team aside from the camera man. The guy was to make sure we didnt get lost or use our phones or use any money other than what we were given. The task was to commute to manila via jeep, bus or tricycle only.
Third to leave and then we were off to head home :)
