16 Apr. '10 - Cape Bolinao and Patar White Beach

DAY 5


Due to insistent demand of our kids, we spent another night here in Bolinao, 

This will be our last and final province of this trip.

After 1,487 Kilometers from Manila-Vigan-Pagudpud-Blue
 Lagoon-Patapat Viaduct-Km Post 578 then back to -Bangui-Burgos-Laoag-Paoay-Vigan-Bolinao-Manila & 300 plus songs from Aoi's iPod, our sojourn in North Luzon came to an end.

If you'll ask the 2 boys, they still want to continue with our road trip, but Aoi is not on our side, she got a little bored (maybe) or had too much of fun and/or (enjoyment) to a point of being bored? (un din yata un). Nevertheless, we all had a stupendous vacation.

Who enjoyed our trip the most? Austin claimed that he enjoyed it most, 5 out of 5 stars, he even explained that whoever had the most sand in his body is a proof that he/she liked it so much. 

Before leaving Bolinao, the 3 kids are clamoring for Part 2... this time Cold Province of the North, Banaue-Sagada-Baguio. Let's see...

15 Apr. '10 - Bolinao, Pangasinan

DAY 4


Departed Vigan, Ilocos Sur - 4:00am
Arrived at Bolinao, Pangasinan - 10:00am

Same region but different province...

"Daddy, where are we?" our kids favorite words.

Isn't it wonderful to wake up in the morning not knowing what place will greet you?

One day you're on the Northern most tip of Luzon & then the following day you're on Western part of it...

will probably spend a night here, not sure...
