Ilocos Trip Day 3: Calle Crisologo + Bye Bye

Super bitin our Ilocos trip. I felt like we were not able to fully explore the place, especially Vigan! I would definitely go back -- soon I hope. I felt disappointed coz they only gave us an hour to walk around the famous Calle Crisologo (I could keep myself busy exploring the vicinity for hours!) have lunch and buy pasalubongs. :( Still had so much fun though:) Here are the last batch of photos from my pre birthday trip!:)

sukang ilocos yey!

Then something strange happened while I was taking photos of Mich and the Ostriches...

We also passed by Ferdinand Marcos' mausoleum, but pictures were not allowed. Creepy sha and surreal ang feeling. Imagine walking in a dark room, with mala Gregorian music and props by the door. The only light in the room is by the crystal encasing his body on a bed of flowers.

Lighthouse!

Last stop: WINDMILLS!
