#ItsComplicatedSummer2016

During summer, my #ItsComplicatedFriends make it a point to have at least one outing for that summer feel!

This year, we opted for a North Escapade. :)

Marvelous Maravilla

While everyone else was flocking in the famous beaches, my friends and I decided to take the "beach less swam by" because A) It is less crowded and B) It is less expensive.

Lake Danao Park

After wading through the cool waters of Timubo Cave, we then went to our next destination, the Lake Danao Park. Lake Danao Park is a nice venue for picnics, and some fun activities like Kayaking, Horseback Riding, or even swimming in the pool (because it is not advisable to swim in the lake itself). For just 15php entrance fee for adults and 10php for kids plus 20php for the cottage, you will get to enjoy these activities and more.

When in Camotes ♥

Summer is here again! And once we hear the word "summer", all we can think of are planning the perfect get-away, going to the beach, having a long vacation, and just relaxing. And speaking of beaches and summer get-aways, I am proud to present to you my favorite Island, my hometown, tantananan, Camotes Island! ☺

A Day in Plantation Bay

Summer is now here!! Weeeee.. Time to bust those bikinis ladies. Hehe

If you are looking for a great way to spend your summer in the City, why not try one of our famous resorts, The Plantation Bay. For 2000php/head, you may enjoy the use of their facilities from 9am-5pm. (500php off per person if group of 20 or more)

So what did we enjoyed doing? Scroll below to find out. I must warn you though, this post is loaded with pictures. I couldn't help but share them all. Hehe

Mines View Park

Mines View Park, so called for its view of the Benguet's gold and copper mine is one of the famous tourist spots in Baguio. 

What to do in Mines View Park?

1.) Take a picture with this ginormous St. Bernard dog for only 50php per 5shots.

2.) Rent a costume and play dress up as a native Igorot for 10php per person. 

3.) Take a picture riding a horse for 10php. Sadly, I hadn't bothered on taking a picture with the horses because I thought that we will have a chance later to experience horseback riding. As it turned out,the cost for horseback riding was higher than what we expected so no horseback riding for me. :(

4.) Shop for delicacies and souvenir items at stalls located at the entrance. They offer Strawberry Jam, Ube Jam, Peanut Brittles, brooms, knitted cardigans, souvenir shirts and more.

5.) Lastly, enjoy the panoramic view of the Benguet Mines.

How to get there: You can ride a taxi in going there with a flag down rate of 35php and 2php/succeeding meter. We paid 89php from Camp Allen (where we stayed) to Mines View Park. Or if you want to save money and commute, there are also jeepneys going there. Just go to Mabini Street near corner Session Road across McDonald's and you'll see jeepneys with "Baguio Plaza-Mines View VV" signs. I hope you enjoyed Mines View Park as much as I did. :)
