Having just eaten at the Mile Hi Diner at the Mile Hi Center, everyone was energized and raring to go for some fun activity. Next on the agenda was to play a round of Mini Golf. The place was about 10 minutes away from the Mile Hi Center and we actually couldn't find it the first time we went around Camp John Hay. The next time we did find it, it was raining hard and though it was open, playing was out of the question. This time, the rain had subsided and a bit of sun was out :)Enjoyable fun at the Camp John Hay Mini Golf

Dining at the Mile Hi Diner at the Mile Hi Center in Camp John Hay in Baguio
27 September 2016
After the kids had their horseback riding adventure at Shalan ni Kabadjo, we knew it was time for some grub. We passed by Mile Hi Center on the way to the Riding Center one time and we thought it would be a good idea to pick our restaurant from there. Looking around, Dana chose to eat at Mile Hi Diner, I guess to avoid Tapa King and Dencio's which were Manila-based franchises.
Horseback riding at Shalan ni Kabadjo in Camp John Hay, Baguio City
27 September 2016
After a very enjoyable boating experience in Burnham Park, the kids were in very high spirits and had more energy to spare so we decided to try the Shalan ni Kabadjo Horseback Riding now that the rain has dissipated. It's a little out of the way since we had to travel to Camp John Hay but it's got more of a nature feel to it compared to the Wright Park riding trail. Again, we were the only ones there so it was great!

Now we come to the place for kids and kids at heart - Burnham Park. After shopping at the Baguio Public Market and ending up with 2 kilos of freshly ground coffee, the kids were excited that the rains stopped and we could visit Burnham Park. They weren't disappointed and this was probably one of their favorite destinations on the trip.

After our trip to the Strawberry Farms in Benguet, we were debating where to go next since it was drizzling so any outdoor activities had to be postponed. Patrick and I decided to visit the Baguio Public Market instead to check if we can get the souvenir items that friends asked us to buy. We parked next to the Igorot Park along Harrison Road and walked the overpass to get to the Baguio Public Market. Our noses were tantalized by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and that led us to Garcia's Coffee where we were staggered by the affordability of freshly ground coffee beans. There were also a number of different flavors that blew our minds :)

If you want to visit the Strawberry Farms in La, Trinidad, Benguet and participate in their strawberry picking activities, then don't go at this time :) Harvest season is between November and May. We told the kids not to expect that they'll be berry picking and they understood. We still went though because we were curious and at least the next time that we come back, we already know the way. I have included directions to get there from the City.
Dinner at the iconic 50's Diner in Baguio City
26 September 2016
While here in Baguio, Patrick and I decided that we'd only eat at local restaurants and dining haunts because what's the point in traveling and educating our kids with the local culture if we're just going to end up at fast food franchises. So, on our list of dining choices was the iconic 50's Diner at the corner of Upper Gen. Luna and Brent Roads.

Visiting The Mansion in Baguio City is a fast process. You go there, take your pictures and leave. At least, that's what we did since it's not possible to get any closer than just inside the gate. So, we crossed the street and headed to Wright Park. This was the first time we've gone to Wright Park from this direction so it was an adventure of sorts :)

After a hearty lunch at Amare La Cucina and checking in at C Boutique Hotel, we headed straight to The Mansion as it is one of the landmarks that is close to where we were and we already knew how to get there. The Mansion is the official summer residence of the President of the Philippines and this is the closest that you can get inside.

Before we even went to Baguio, I already made a list of places that we wanted to dine at and on top of that list was the Amare La Cucina which was famous for having their own brick oven and they also let kids make the pizza they ordered. After Mines View Park, we headed straight to Amare La Cucina which was fortunately in the same vicinity, located at the EGI Alberto Hotel near Wright Park.
