LAST WEEKEND ( at my husband’s prodding),I decided to join my mom and my five “unmarried” siblings to Baguio City. (while the married ones, like my brother, was in SG and my sister, in CdeOC, and my dad in Camiguin. )
Notwithstanding the fact that I marvelled at the sixteen to twenty degree celsius cold front in Manila. So, going up to the City of Pines meant, ” Hi my name is Olaf and I like warm hugs.” I was “Cool Runnings” and “Jamaica rendezvous-ing with Canada.”
Pray tell, which part of the bedroom showcase, -of the home world section , did I fail to bring with me?
We invaded Baguio City right after the opening of the city’s Panagbenga or the annual Flower Festival.
It was strange seeing my mom watching the parade.
Things seem to be on reverse now. My mom kept on craning her neck and tugging our hands, while saying, ” didto ta ‘day, or ‘dong – as she afforded herself some vantage point.
1. Opening Parade of the Panagbenga Festival ( The Flower Festival )
2. Tam-awan Village ( Baguio’s Artist Village and Gardens )
3. Strawberry Fields ( La Trinidad Benguet )


4. Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto
5. Going Around The City, Food, People and All







Incidentally, we have to thank the artist and stand up comedian ” Attack “ who obliged in taking our family picture.
( the only decent family picture we had in Baguio City )

Nakaka-inggit, hahaha 😀

Go Panagbenga!
I’ve been to Baguio a couple of times but have never seen Panagbenga. I bet super lamig nung nagpunta kayo. People in Baguio are really so nice, one of the things that my husband and I fell in love with in this place 🙂
Hi Camille! Yep, it was. (super cold) Opposite ng mga tao naman, na super warm.
It was just the opening ng Panagbenga…but they say this Feb 22 would be the highlight of the month long event -with the floats and street dance.
You and your husband can still watch Panagbenga,:)
I enjoy the pics…i always wanted to comment to your few blogs and today i had the chance. Keep up with your simple and mundane writing.
