Janina's Birthday in Baguio

Baguio is still the best place to be at this time of the year here in the Philippines.  Me and my family were there last Sunday to Monday and we loved every minute of our stay.  Monday happened to be my daughter Janina’s birthday.  I wanted it to be special for her so I thought of using the voucher I bought many months back.  It was for an overnight stay in Mines View Park Hotel.  So glad we used it at the right time.  The weather was 10’C or 50’F.  It was freaking cold but since we never have yet experienced such low temperature here in Metro Manila, such chilly weather was a welcome respite.

If I may add, hubby as usual broke away from us when we reached Rosario, La Union.  He pedalled his way up to Baguio thru his favourite bike trail, the Kennon  Road.  He accomplished his goal and reached the hotel 3 hours behind us. I guess, nothing or no one can stop him from his passion, which is biking mountain trails.  I just pray for his safety everytime.

we used to go to baguio every january or february. i usually book a room in our office's cottage at P150 per head/night. unfortunately, we haven't gone this year because of some urgent matters here in manila. last year, during panagbenga, the cottage's caretaker got sick and so we were forced to look for alternative accommodation. fortunately, we got a room at teachers' camp. we love baguio's weather especially during this time of the month.

@Batangala: Lucky you to have an office cottage available for very minimal fee. Siguro kung ako ang nasa place mo, every month nasa baguio ako!haha.. The best ang lamig during this period. If only we could stay for few more days.. kasi di pwede eh! :(

I hope you're enjoying your weekend! God bless, Noel!
