Baguio Things to Do

Camp John Hay is such a delight to go to. We have never grown tired of visiting it because of the many things we enjoy doing there.

One of these things is having breakfast at the picnic area near the figaro shop. I usually get to bring food we have prepared in the house we rent - complete with hot chocolate and coffee, some sausages bought from the market, eggs, pancakes, fried rice, and some native rice cakes. Then we stay there after breakfast to play some board games or charoodle (which is a variation of the charade game). The kids are free to run around the area without the risk of getting run over by vehicles while the adults get to chat while we watch them.

there's jut one problem - food gets really cold so fast, I normally have to bring the whole pot just to keep them warm!

Session Road is the main street in Baguio City. Here you can find a number of notable shops and restaurants. This inclined street is very busy and during the summer the traffic is quite heavy and it's quite hard to see a parking place.

Mines View Park is a popular place where you can see a great view of the mountains. There is also a lot of shops that sells handicrafts, T-shirts and local foodstuffs which you can take home. It's advisable that you come as early as possible as thei place is normally full of people during the day.

Camp John Hay is a leisure facility that was established as a rest and relaxation facility for American servicemen and their dependents. When the lease on the various American bases in the Philippines was not renewed CJH was turned over to the Philippine government who chose to develop it. There is a wide array of facilities like a par 69 golf course, swimming pool, camping site, restaurants, and shopping centres which will help visitors have a enjoyable visit to the CJH.

In the cool weather of Baguio, it's sometimes good to set a side a part of the day to just relax, have a nice meal, and find a nice relaxing activity. In Burnham Park you can certainly do this. Whether it's reading a book, or going on a rowboat on the man made lake or cycling around then or just sitting relaxing then this park is for you. Centrally located within the city limits, the park is a popular for family picnics.

Besides having your pictures taken in Igorot Costume, you are also donating some of your payment to the Senior Citizens of Baguio.

There are these two older Igorot women whose store close to the lookout asking for your donations.

The amount you pay for your pictures taken at the other stalls are the same. But, with the two women, some proceeds go to a good cause.

I had been so tired as I didn't have enough sleep for about two weeks, so I told my aunt that I will wait for them in the jeepney (transportation we had in Baguio). I told the driver to drop them off at the Botanical Garden while I laid down in the jeep to catch my sleep!

I have lived in Baguio for 12 years and I had seen these many times so, I just told them to take their time and I will meet them at the parking lot!

They seemed to enjoy the garden.
