We left Bulusan Volcano Natural Park about 6:35 P.M. bound for Route 4 - Mateo Hot & Cold Springs Resort at Brgy. Monbon, Irosin, Sorsogon - where we will stay overnight.
It was a very stressful day; so, we just took our supper at a cottage by the pool [because it's a no-no to eat inside, and even at the porch, of your checked-in room]. After which, the usual bedtime routine. We did our thing in the morning of the second day (18th of April) of the escapade.

Irosin is a second class municipality in the province of Sorsogon. It is the only land-locked municipality of the province.
Irosin has many potential tourist spots varying from natural parks, hot and cold springs, viewing areas and historical landmark. The famous tourism attractions in the municipality are the Mateo Hot and Cold Springs Resort, St. Michael Archangel Roman Catholic Hilltop Church and protected areas. The Bolos Crystal Spring and the Valley View Park where eateries, kiosks and parking spaces were set up had become a rest area for truckers and travelers plying the Maharlika Highway. Another potential tourist attraction is the Mapaso mineral hot spring famous for its purported healing qualities. Irosin is an ideal jump-off site for mountaineering and ecological trek that is becoming popular among tourists both foreign and local. The municipality is an entry and exit area to Bulusan Volcano Natural Park, one of the remaining tropical forests and is a protected area in the Bicol Region. Mount Jormajam and Mount Mara-ot Banwa are the other alternative places for mountaineering and ecological trekking.
The most common cultural activities in the municipality are the annual santacruzan, barangay fiestas and town fiesta where Paray Festival is showcased. The Paray Festival in September culminates with the street play Viva San Miguel, celebrated in honor of Saint Michael Archangel, the patron saint of Irosin. [End of Episode 5]
