At the hotel

We checked into hotel for the night. The hotel we stayed in Baguio is Hotel Supreme ... oops no picture of the hotel exterior. The hotel looks nice from the outside but hor... looks are very deceiving ... We find 'xiao qiang' inside the room... eeeEEeeeEEEkkkKKK !!!

First Day Bus ride

The first day was boring. It was a 8 hr bus ride up up north... to Baguio city. We set off at 2pm n reach at ard 10pm. The road here is left-hand drive and the driver here are DAMN skillful. They can squeeze through whatever gap they can find on the road, overtaking vehicles on the 1 lane road!!! Road had no marking nor lines, neither did they have traffic light and pedestrian crossing. One thing we must admire, given such a poor traffic control, I didnt see any road accident throughout the 8 hr journey. On the journey, we passed towns such as Tarlac, etc etc etc which I had forgotten.

This is a interior view of the bus, Victory liner.

This is the bus ticket. 280 peso per person, which is about S$9.20.

Finally we reached Baguio City. It was freezing cold here. The temperature is abt 10degree ba. "when the cold wind blow ... ..."

For Suresh

Don't walk on the cloud la... you will fall down without u knowing why...

Map of Phillipines

Here is Philippines. It is a very very very very very big place... Haha... sorry for the limited vocabulary I had. Luzon island is the one we went to. The place we stayed had a very funny address... let me recalled: 100 MagSaySay GuaGua Pampangan.... correct me if I am wrong. That is about 1 hr 20 min taxi ride from Clark airport.


Tiger Airway flight TR 502. Cheap flight give u 'cheap' services. Haha that is what i can say. I WOULDNT take Tiger for any journey which is more than 4 hrs.


Taxi Taxi... at least can sit 18 people, price is dependant on the journey. As for the tricycle, our normal rate is 50peso per tricycle for 10min ride.

Suresh's house!!!! Big green house. This is where we lived in... I like the neighbour house... damn cool... fits better in the countryside scenery.
