Part I: Weekend in Baguio City + Itinerary

The last time I visited the City of Pines was about five years ago except last year when we passed by on our way to organic farm located at La Trinidad, Benguet. I'm happy to be back! Just last week, we spent a wonderful weekend at Azalea Residences in Baguio City. Together with my husband Jonel and niece Bianca, we traveled comfortably six and a half hours from Manila to Baguio City via Victory Liner.

Here's a photo blog of this summer getaway and our three-day itinerary that might also help you prepare your vacation this coming holidays. Full story though will be posted our couple blog Seats For Two.

Cold weather, fresh air, fog, fresh vegetables, strawberries are just few things I'm excited about our trip to Baguio. Our home in the City of Pines was Azalea Residences at Leonard Wood. It's very near Teacher's camp, White House Laperal, Wright Park and other tourist attractions in Baguio City.
