Baguio at 12 C

2 weeks before the Panagbenga, we have decided to went north again to experience the coldest weather Philippines could ever have! The past few days, wala nang laman ang balita kung di kung gaano kalamig ang  whether dito sa Manila or ibang part ng bansa thus we have immediately packed our things and looked for a hotel to stay in in Baguio.

Unfortunately, we were pressed out of time and I cant find any cheap hotels kasi fully booked na lahat. Rami atang tao ang umakyat din sa Baguio! hahahah!

I was able to book a 1 night (Sunday) on Hotel Veniz and good thing my bf' former officemate's sister still has a free room in Trinidad ready to be rented for visitors. hay... thank you Lord!

We were welcomed with 12 degrees temp, It was freaking cold! No, it's super freaking cold!!

Below are the photos of Hotel Veniz, we rented the Standard Queen size bedroom since that's the only one available. No choice kumbaga.. 1700 with free buffet breakfast for two. (Note: I didnt enjoy the breakfast buffet, very limited choices or baka late lang kami bumaba nun, mga 9am.) They serve  their free breakfast meal from 6am-10am.

There's a designated wifi connection on each floor so medyo mabilis sa lobby of each floor, un lang pagdating namin sa room, weak na un signal. They gave us the room na malapit sa lobby so rinig na rinig din namin un mga ingay ng mga dumadaan.. no window din.. :( So di namin namalayan na 9am na pala nun gumising kami kasi madilim pa.. hahahaha!
But I would like to commend the staff, they are so nice.. Okay din un room itself, malinis sia in fairness.











The last time we went to Baguio, nag food trip lang kami.. Sarap kaya kumain ng mga fresh na gulay dito. Lakas maka healthy healthyhan ang peg. haha!

This time, nag libot libot na talaga kami!

We went to Ben Cab Museum, Tanawan village and Camp John Hay.





more flowers more fun!










lunch out at Cafe Batirol - it's a taxi ride from the entrance of Camp John Hay... you may walk your way there but its kinda far.













After Camp John Hay, we went to Tan awan Village

CITY OF PINES! This is a biglaan trip, we have decided to spend my birthday in Baguio since ito talaga un first dream destination namin as couple nun mga bata pa kami! hahaha! ang babaw lang..oh well, that was 8 or 9 or 10 years ago. We have been to a lot of places daw pero Baguio lang di pa namin mapuntahan so i-avail na yan biglaan plan na yan! gow! So, mega google naman ako sa mga hotels/places na sikat sa Baguio coz of course it's only a 1night 2 days stay so might as well sulitin na namin un. I thought macacancel pa tong trip na to, kasi super relax si lola mo, I never booked any hotels, un night before our bus trip I do have shift and we dont have DIY ITI yet kung saan pupunta. What I did lang was I printed out some tips and maps from different blog sites so I could read them while on a road. I checked on Victory liner schedule and told myself na every hour naman pala meron trips so keribels na mag walk-in nalang kami! But I was so wrong!! BOOK YOU

BICOL 2017 Had a valentine date with my workmates, sadly, we weren't able to go to all of the islands in Caramoan because the weather was bad (My 2nd time in Bicol and 2nd time to try Caramoan tour but still failed) but at least we were able to go to 2 islands in Caramoan. Details below Got our Caramoan travel package from this. https://www.facebook.com/The-Travelers-CAMP-Caramoan-Philippines-304728136214732/ Contact number:  0917-8746437 (TRAVELERS CAMP) Flight to Naga (it's nearer if you book to Naga compare to Legazpi which is 2 hrs to Naga) From Naga airport, just walk outside and hail and bus going to Van terminal bound to Sabang port.

The van driver called the boatman to wait for us. NOTE: the boat ride was kinda
