Short trip to Pangasinan for Beautiful Sunday and Sublime Sunday

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

This is a short clip on our way to Laoac, Pangasinan.

Pangasinan is located at western Luzon. It is about three hours from Manila.

This morning, me and my partner finally decided to visit a friend in their province. We were undecided last night if we want to go or not.

We had breakfast first before heading to the bus terminal. From our city, it took us about two hours to reach Binalonan.

We then stopped at a fast food for some food and then took a tricycle ride to take us to Laoac, a town next to Binalonan.

It is my first time to visit Laoac. The tricycle ride took about 10 minutes.

From the highlands to the lowlands, it is a drastic change in temperature. The heat was almost unbearable and oppressive in the lowlands but good thing there are scattered clouds in the sky to give us shade.

When we arrived at our friend's we had a chat and lunch. I was unable to take photos for one, I was preserving my phone battery so I used it sparingly and two, I was there to focus and be more attentive to everyone.

Although we wanted to stay long, we just can't because there are responsibilities waiting for us back home.

Night has fallen when we were back in the city. We met with another friend and had dinner somewhere before going to another cafe for cakes and coffee before finally calling it a day.

Because we couldn't think of any place else to go for the initial place we wanted to eat was closed, we decided to go to a familiar place instead.

I had Americano while my friends had white mocha and brewed coffee. For cakes, I had mango cake with mango puree. One of us had strawberry cake with strawberry puree and the other had tiramisu.

We happened to see a friend of our friend who was working there. They haven't seen each other for a long time. This friend who works there informed us that the cafe will soon expand and open a new branch somewhere in the city and also its own hotel. It's nice to know that local businesses are growing. Continue to support local and buy local.
