Day 3 Baguio Trip: Lourdes Grotto, Tam-Awan Village, Strawberry Fields, 50's Diner

We started the day by going to Lourdes Grottol. We parked the car on the highest parking place and walked the rest of the way. There were lots of stores but we didn't find anything we liked.

we wanted to go to the bell tower but there were long lines outside because of an outreach program so we decided to skip the place and proceeded to Tam-Awan Village where we had artists draw caricatures and portraits of us.

We stopped by Andok's Lechon Manok to eat afterwards. They have like a whole restaurant unlike in Manila where they only have small take-out outlets. Soon after we went to Strawberry Fields where you could pick your own strawberries for a fee. They also sold so many different kinds of strawberry products. I even tasted different kinds of strawberry wine, with Mom's permission of course! I liked some of them but the others tasted real bad. :D

As usual the day ended with us on 50's Diner before finally heading back to Peredo's Inn. That food place kinda creeps up on you. I loved everything I ordered!

Day 1 Baguio Trip: Lion's Head, Petron, Peredo's Inn, Mile High, 50's Diner

We went to Baguio again! We wanted to take Grandpa with us but he had work. Mom talked to my teacher and had me excused for class next week. I finished all my homework before leaving! Grandpa already reminded Dadd to have the van checked before leaving. I'm not really sure what happened but we had some trouble right when we reached the Lion's head. We stayed there for about two hours while they fixed the engine. Good thing there were strawberry taho vendors. We even bought the burgers cooked near the road and bought drinks there too!

When th van was finally fixed, we brought it to the nearest service station so they could double check and make sure everything is alright. They replaced some parts and we were stuck there for about two more hours! There goes the rest of the day. We were pretty deadbeat by the time they finished. We tried to look for other places to stay at but we still liked Peredo's Inn best so we stayed there again.

After resting for a bit, we went to Mile High and did some shopping. The grown-ups mostly bought clothes and jackets. I bought goodies! Hah! That night, we had dinner at 50's Diner. We actually loved their food. I wonder if it was also because we were starving for several hours while waiting for the van to get fixed! :D
