Who said that kids can only field trips? Well, adults can have a fun, enjoyable and memorable FIELD TRIPS too.

When we were still kids like during elementary days, we often have FIELD TRIPS. They are group tours especially designed for kids with visits to museums, factory, historical sites and tourists spots. When I was 6 years old, I had field trip at Davao, I remember we went to Coca Cola Factory, Gap Farm, Crocodile Farm, Philippine Eagle and Victoria Plaza Mall. However, just recently I had a crazy idea to redo what we do as kids to visit some popular sites in Davao like the Philippine Eagle Center, it has been 20 years since I had visited that place and near the Eagle center was Malagos Garden, another must-see places to visit in Davao both are located at Calinan, Davao.

 Our trip was immediately right after our work, meaning we have not slept yet from our tiring duty but when it comes to adventures we are revived. Our first stop was at Philippine Eagle Center, one of Davao’s most visited places, it is a sanctuary for the largest eagle in the world, the magestic Philippine Eagle. To get to the center, you can ride an airconditioned van from Bangkerohan Terminal and take another tricyle to the center.

The Philippine Eagle is the countrys national bird, it is powerful and huge making it the largest eagle in the world. Unfortunately, despite its name, it is considered to be an endangered species but thanks to the efforts of the Philippine Eagle Foundation, these birds will not remain in our textbooks only.
