To the North, To the North

It was a very long trip. But our trip to La Union, then to Baguio the same morning we arrived, was worth the pain in the butt. =)

We left Manila at 12AM of Maundy Thursday. Traffic was bad, but could be worse if we left earlier. We arrived in La Union at 7AM (yes, that long). After a quick breakfast and nap, we headed for a quick day trip in Baguio. Slept earlier than planned due to exhaustion with a plan to swim by sunrise. Overslept due to exhaustion capped by a bottle of beer (singular for me, plural for the rest of the group). After breakfast, we headed to the dirty-white-sand beach just 10 minutes walk from the house. La Union, indeed, has great beaches to boast. We left for Manila after a sumptuous lunch. The trip back was more fun. It was Good Friday, so we had to take extra care. When we were nearing Makati, we almost hit another car due to this swerve-crazy bus driver along EDSA. Thank God, all of us got home safe and happily reminiscing the trip.

I'm too lazy to write a narrative, so I'll just share some of my fave pics from the trip. More can be found in my latest album.
