Baguio City Thread 10

[nessy]

Planning to go to Baguio by the end of April pa naman. Ask ko lang, we wanna go strawberry picking, pwede pa ba that time?

[entwife]

Thanks sis Kaisha! So After Mines View we can go to Mansion House and Wright Park. Tpos after checking in at Azalea we'll go first sa Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto then head to Burnham Park and Session Road.

Thanks! 

Daan na rin kayo sa Ketchup Food Community. Maybe snacks na lang kayo sa Mines View and you can have your lunch dito. Maraming food choices / combination of different cuisines.

Galing kami baguio last weekend, sakto lang yung weather..stay sa mines view park hotel! as usual food trip na naman!

[enitsirhk]

^there's another parang OMG abiance din along assumption road..near session road din lang..same owners..it's called artist's village..they don't concentrate na pero on veggies and fruits..it's not yet fully done, pero it's open to the public na..

sis kaisha, are you from Baguio ba? 'coz you know a lot about Baguio.
anyway, we saw this certain (new?) hotel along session road, City Center Hotel and I would like to know their rates so that when we come back this year, parang ok na doon magstay, I was looking for it sa google pero hindi siya ma-search. Are you familiar with that hotel? If you're coming from upper session, nasa unang kanto siya bago mag-La Brea. Everytime we visit Baguio, we stays at La Brea kasi, kakasawa na.

[kaisha]

^yes sis, I am..i grew up there.. =)
since feb last year, i decided to work in manila na..
City Center Hotel? sorry I can't help you with that.. last time i went home was during the time session road was close for the flower festival and i wasn't able to notice this new hotel..but if in case i would get some information about it, i would post here..
pero i'm thinking baka, it's the one where they have to renovate this old building, tas yung shop sa baba is the mountain studio..

[enitsirhk]

^hmmm... can't really recall. bago siya eh so baka it's the one you're referring to, na nirenovate. nasa kanto siya before La Brea. sige sis ha, pag may info ka, post it here. tia!

[entwife]

Hi. I suggest pag-isahin mo na lang lahat ng activities sa john hay instead na pabalik balik dun. Then if u want to see some arts and frafts ng cordillera baka maisingit mo yung tam-awan village.

[vixey1969]

Wala po entrance sa orchidarium.

Maulan ba sa Baguio around May? We plan to go there mga 3rd week of May to celebrate my birthday, kaya lang baka di namin maenjoy kung maulan dun. Kada birthday ko kasi maulan dito sa Manila eh. 

[babybubot]

^sis di masyado maulan pag may, dun din ako kasi nagcecelebrate ng birthday ko (may din) dati. Hapon maulan pero ambon lang. Sa panahon natin ngayon unpredictable ang weather.

we'll be in baguio this sunday till tue kami to celebrate my son 4th birthday naman. Madami bang strawberry this month? Yun kasi ang pinakagusto ng anak ko gawin sa baguio. Last time na nag baguio kami di namin nagawa kulang sa oras.

[hann-hann]

^thanks sis! Go na kami sa May hanap na ng accommodation. We're torn between Bloomfield Hotel and Holiday Park. Nagbabasa pa ko ng mga feedbacks and reviews.

[anniegurl]

[babybubot]

mga sis may nakapagtry na ba pumunta ng early morning sa mines view? safe po ba? balak ko kasi mag shoot ng sunrise.

[kaisha]

^safe naman sis, madami na rin kasing nag jo jogging at that time..

[babybubot]

^thanks sis, btw ask ko na din ano pa bang pwede puntahan sa La trinidad bukod sa strawberry picking?  tama ba malapit lang din ang bell church and tam-awan village dun? Ito kasi ang di ko pa masyado na explore eh. TIA

[kaisha]

^ madadaanan ang bell church pag papunta kayo ng strawberry farm.. there's also the winaca eco cultural village--been there once pa lang,
way 2009..para rin siyang tam-awan village..from strawberry farm it's sbout 15-20 mins away pa siguro..you can ask around if you want to got there.
malapit lang tam-awan village, from strawberry farm kasi there's a route from trinidad to pinsao..
