Conquering the North!

After a very short time of preparation, our family decided to roll up north. Destination : Manaoag - Baguio - Vigan - Laoag - Pagudpud.

We departed quezon city at exactly 6am. Packed with breakfast and many other stuffs (supplies for more than a week i guess?), the excitement and fun escalates as we went through.

First stop: Manaoag Church

Gii and Bibay will never get tired posing. After hurdling the long line going to the shrine, we heard mass and went straight to our next destination.

3:30 in the afternoon, we arrived at the city of pines, baguio city.


We spent the night in Baguio and of course, we went to SM. You shouldn't miss this extraordinary mall without an airconditioning system,hehehe!

Gii and Ate Ezka at Starbucks, SM Baguio.

The following day, we headed far north, Vigan City. We toured the City via a Kalesa. Gii enjoyed it so much.

We had our lunch at Cafe Leona, and immediately after, we headed straight to pagudpud. It was a long 4-hour trip but seeing the majestic views in the north made the trip all worth it.

The Bangui windmills were truly fascinating.Too bad that our big bus couldn't go much closer.

At exactly 6pm, we arrived Pagudpud. The beach was enchanting.


The travel was truly worth remembering, all the memories, the food, buffet, stop overs, laughters, and practically everything will surely be our inspiration for our next trip. Next Year, we plan to conquer the South!!!!!!!!! Till then!
