Today I wake up early, enjoying my coffee while preparing my things. For today , we are going to Baguio City. The Summer capital of the Philippines also known for its bountiful pine trees. They named this a “summer capital” because of its stunning and owing cool climate even in summer season.

Actually this trip is just for mom’s errand because she has a special business to PRC. I just accompanied him here. At exactly 6 in the morning we left to the house. We rode a bus going to Agoo (terminal station going to Baguio). Our real plan is to ride the Victory Line Bus because the fare is more cheaper.

But sadly there is no one and our only option is ride to an UV Express van which is expensive its fare is 100 peso or 2$. We are two so we paid 200 peso or 4$.

We arrived in Baguio in just an hour, The trip is too fast because there is no traffic. Baguio is still the same, nothing has changed, there are many people, cars and quite a bit of traffic. If I am not mistaken my last visit here is last March 2023.

When we arrived, we find a taxi to ride going to PRC. While I am waiting for mom, I take a walk outside. I go to Rizal Park, I sit there and enjoy a cool breeze. This time I feel like I'm in an air-conditioned room.

After that mom said that we go to Jollibee to eat our breakfast. We choose to eat at SM Jollibee. When we arrived the SM front is still closed but Jollibee and Starbucks is already opened.

While we are eating I noticed that there are so many people coming in to SM and I can see their smiles waiting for the SM Gate to be opened. we didn't make it to the opening, mom was in a hurry to go home because she still had a lot to do.

But before we go home first we go to souvenir shop. We bought Baguio Delicacies,

I like Lengua de Gato (my all time favorite cookies) , and its best seller Strawberry, We buy strawberry fruit and its Jam. (because they say that if you have a strawberry, it's a sign that you go to Baguio.

Also as request of my dad we also buy a Chayote top (It's his favorite, so whenever we go to Baguio, he buys this. )
After that we went home but for this time we ride a bus.

This trip can be quick but I still enjoyed it. Somehow, as time went on visiting here in Baguio, I felt a bit cold breeze before going down or going home to La Union
