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 :)Garcia's Coffee at the Baguio Public Market

The wrong time to visit the Strawberry Farms in Benguet

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

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.
