It is very rare to happen that in a calendar year, we would be entitled with a long weekend. This time, my mom made sure that this dream trip will push through. She had flight arrangement a year ahead,to avail a good deal(she did!). And When i found out about this, I decided to avail my ticket as well,with her approval that i'll be with them right after i purchased one. (no way for her to refuse me on this trip,hahah)

Its not just an ordinary trip, its a long weekend birthday celebration for mom!

i was tasked to do our itinerary, Tito Boy came in my mind since his family is residing in Ilocos. I asked information regarding tourist  spots in the area and affordable hotels for us to stay.. While waiting for a response i did my task, with the help of some travel blog sites, I was able to prepare few (4 set of itineraries) so confusing!

but wait! theres no need for me to be confused. Tito Boy said that Tita Elaine can help us in this trip and offered their place. so how should i react? of course its a big yes! (its a big help)

 

 

Sept.30,2012(Sunday)

We had our flight 7:05pm and scheduled to arrive Laoag by 8:30pm.Since we got an evening flight, i was thinking our  adventure will start on land the next day, but i was wrong! it started on air, literally on the plane. It was already announced that in a few minutes we will be landing Laoag,i was ready to look at the window for a night view of Laoag, suddenly the plane was like hitted by a giant. heavy rain welcomed us,it took 3 attempts before we landed safely. While still seated, all you can hear from us passengers is "Thank God", & "mag bu-bus nako pauwi".

we landed past 11. It was a rough flight!
