TOUCHDOWN - A PINE Day in Baguio

by - November 22, 2015

This one is my 3rd out-of-the-metro trip and probably my last this year.  I don't have any plans yet for December but I really want to go and have a new adventure before 2015 ends.  How about you?



Anyway,  together with Kris and his fambam, we went to Baguio last month for a 2-day road trip.  We thought the weather was not going to permit us but fortunately, it wasn't so bad there even after a very strong typhoon.  We expected worse actually.  Well, some roads were closed and we still saw signs of devastation such as fallen trees, landslides and more.  However, those didn't prevent us from having a nice, relaxing time in the Summer Capital of the Philippines.


After lunch, we left NLEX at around 1 PM and arrived at the house at 5:30 PM.  We had one quick stopover at a gas station in Pampanga and drove up via Marcos Highway.  Not Kennon Road because it was closed due to landslides.



We stayed at a Transient house and we payed around 6,500 php per night I think.  The whole place could accommodate 20 pax.


Camp John Hay and mini-golfing for first day!





We also tried to drop by La Presa but it was raining and roads seemed to be impassable, so we didn't push through.


I got to try strawberry taho for the first time!  Yea!  I would like it better though if it's a bit sweeter.


Mines View Park was the next stop after our lunch at SM Baguio.  


I almost shrieked seeing these huge, adorable dogs!



Here's a classic - biking at Burnham Park.








So, that's it!

I wanna see more of Baguio so I already put it in my places-I-wanna-visit-again list.  Haha!
