Ilocos Trip

My Dad have been nagging us to go to Ilocos to meet the family of my brother's girlfriend. And last weekend we were finally able to go. The family went with Tita and Mac. The trip to Ilocos was a lot of firsts for Mac as he has never been there before.

The following are the highlights of our trip:

• Passed by Vigan to eat lunch at a local cafe. Since we were already in the City, we took the opportunity to take pictures beside the antique houses and ride a calesa (It also is the first time Mac rode one). We also saw a big St. Bernard in the heritage village.

• We also passed by "Baluarte" - Chavit Singson's house where he keeps a lot of his animals. There were tigers, monkeys, small horses, ostriches and butterflies.

• We spent the nights in Gef's resort and they always had a lot of food for our meals. Her family was so nice and hospitable. They even gave us a lot pasalubong before we left Laoag.

• Went up a hundred steps of a lighthouse in Laoag (can't remember the name).

• Visited the famous windmills that the late president Marcos built. It was huge!

• Hiked 2 kilometers to see Kaibigan Falls. The walk was tiring but worth it. On the way back, we rode a top down 1978 pick up truck so we won't have to walk and we were all so amazed at the sturdiness of the car.

• On our last day, we went to visit the Marcoses old home. It was really big.

So that was it. There was still a lot of places we were not able to visit because of the lack of time so i'm sure we'd come back to Ilocos.

Coffee and Cigarettes (Nice Sad Song with Great Lyrics)

I gave up coffee and cigarettes


I hate to say it hasn’t helped me yet


I thought my problems would just dissipate


And all my pain would be in yesterday





I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain


And watched my bad habits get flushed away


I thought that that would keep my head on straight


And all my pain would be in yesterday





But it’s true


I’m still blue


But I finally know what to do


I must quit, I must quit, you





I thought that if I didn’t go and play


The sadness would get bored and go away


I thought that if I didn’t go astray


That all my pain would be in yesterday





But it’s true


I’m still blue


But I finally know what to do


I must quit, I must quit, you





I sold my guitar and my piano


I thought that it was these that kept me low


I thought if only I could try and change


That all my pain would be in yesterday





But it’s true


I’m still blue


But I finally know what to do


I must quit, I must quit, you





I must quit, I must quit, you
