LA UNION - Thrilling Experience of a Lifetime




It was last April 8, 2009 when I had my first ever vacation in my two consecutive years of hardwork at i-Elev8. I must say, it was indeed fun and really remarkable. No worries of work, no phones ringing, no e-mails, none at all. 4 days of escapade to different places, different towns and different faces in La Union and in Baguio. Who will never forget our first stop at Hacienda Luisita wherein there's a relic of old train? plus the fact we had encountered those people doing their own version of "senakulo" somewhere in between Tarlac and Pangasinan.

We arrived in La Union past 8p.m. and the only light that helped us make through the dark road was the moon light. We unpacked our stuffs and proceeded to my Grandma's "renovated" old house. A different kind of breeze soothed us which indeed informed us that "it's really now that we are in La Union!".

The following day, we went along the hanging bridge, play and pose along the river bank, stroll around the corn fields. It was really so fun. Stress relieving! All I'm thinking way back then was "every second counts".

On our second day, my grandpa handed me a big papaya...really BIG and HEAVY!
Next, a different size of "Malunggay" plant faced me - so strange, so big round leaf! Thanks for this coz it filled our hungry tummy afterwards.

Good Friday when we went to Baguio. First stop? Venus Hotel! The place is nice and some kinda spooky for me then we rest. The next day, we went to Strawberry Farm, Mine's View Park, Rode a boat in the Lagoon Park, Dined-in in a nearby restau and went shopping for presents.

...Something to look forward to my next Holy Week Vacation in 2010!
...Something to remember
...Something to look back
