It all started with my undergraduate thesis where I tried to chronicle the history of the Sts. Peter and Paul Cathedral. And I got stuck on old churches. The church of Baclayon was one of those which I have always wanted to visit. That came true last Monday. WHEW! That's all I could say as the old structure simply took my breath away. How I wish our own church in Calbayog was preserved (or maintained) that same way that they did in Baclayon.
