From South to North - Vigan

Yep, this was my childhood dream, VIGAN!!! I love historical sites than malls, beaches or any other expensive places. So, this was the first thing in my mind on my first official 30days in Pinas (yup, official 30days coz I just spent 10days vacay last 2015). Gosh, we drove 9hrs from home, I feel pity to my Paps, driving the whole way, and there I was, sleeping. Haha!

We really tried our best to maximize our 2 nights and 3days there, coz I still have some things to do in N.E. So. . . we have to go back at the earliest.

And here it goes…

First day, we went to Padre José Burgos National Museum in Vigan, ❤_❤. Hope they’ll still continue to preserve these kind of historic places.. Then Baluarte Zoo :( .

My father was our photographer, haha. Coz my Mom always takes blurred photos. *peace* I miss them. Hoho.

*back to our trip*

It was rainy season, I was worried coz I thought I wont be able to see Calle Crisologo. Sooo, I waited outside the hostel until the rain stopped. *yes! p-a-t-i-e-n-t-l-y*. T’was already 10pm, almost everyone was already sleeping and most of the stores are already closed, BUT!!! I won’t let that day to pass without going there! Hahaha! So I woke up my Mom and Paps, tho I know they’re tired. *pagbigyan ang bunso*

Twas MAJESTIC, I don’t have a good camera, but, seriously, my heart is still there till now!! Tho the rain helped us to take better photos. The reflection of the lights from the water gave perfect effects on the images. *love it*

*fast forward*

Bell Tower! We rode “Kalesa” going there to Hidden Garden. .

I suddenly remembered El Fili days. . .*feels* 😃

Afterwards. . .Ilocos Norte!!!! Every second counts guys. Special thanks to Google Map.

First in our itinerary was Imelda Marcos’ Gallery. Hays, how clever Marcos was.

Then, Marcos Museum and Mausoleum. *chills* one of the places that was in my “it’s a must” list.

Yep! I’m a fan of Marcos’ leadership, don’t blame or bash me, I’m just appreciating all the good things he did to our country, just don’t always look at the negative sides. 😊 😊

We were able to go inside the Museum, But. . .sadly, not in Mausoleum as they were already preparing his burial.

Well, let’s move on.

Ok, last itinerary was the awesome Wind Mill farm. I can see images of Aliens on those wind mills, haha, maybe that’s the result of watching anime. We just passed by there just to see how it was built and work coz it was almost evening.

Third day. . . bye2 Ilocos, and my lovely Vigan. Hope I’ll be able to visit you again.
