Taking the time to look back on our Bacolod trip last year. My office friends were able to score piso fare to Bacolod during our Thanksgiving Holiday. We took a one way ticket and planned to just take the boat on our way back.
It was probably one of those unfortunate travels we've had because when we reached Bacolod City, we were met with Tropical Depression Marce. Our other colleagues who are supposed to meet us in the city and provide our transportation were stuck in Cebu Island due to the typhoon.
However, we didn't let the tropical depression dampen our spirits and proceeded with the plan.
 |
| First order of the day is breakfast at Manokan Country. |
 |
| A trip to Bacolod will never be complete without the visit to the famous "The Ruins". |
 |
| All smiles despite the typhoon trying to dampen our plans. |
 |
| The New Team Laagan. |
 |
| After our trip to "The Ruins", we stopped by Calea to try out their cakes and pastries. |
 |
| Sweetness overload |
 |
| Since our official ride didn't make to Bacolod City, we decided to rent a taxi in bringing us to major tourist destinations. |
 |
| After a day of touring the city, we stayed for the night at this cute igloo in Campuestohan Resort. It was so cold and foggy we can't even see the grounds. |
 |
| Campuestohan offers a lot of instagrammable spots and one of them is this giant King Kong. |
 |
| One of the highlights of this trip is that we braved the 40 ft sky bike in the middle of the typhoon. It was scary as sh*t that we kept shouting all throughout the ride. The strong winds made it even worst. |
 |
| Campuestohan is equipped with 3 swimming pools - we didn't even tried any of them because of the cold weather. Brrrrrrrr |
 |
Aside from the igloo house, they also have the indian teepee rooms.
|
Overall, it was still a fun-filled trip despite the minor challenges like the water heater not working, our other colleagues bailing out the last minute, our ride didn't make it to Bacolod, tropical depression in the area, cancelled flights/boats and madam Connie's asthma attack.
It was probably one of those trips we will never forget the reason for this major flashback/throwback.
I hope everyone had wonderful thanksgiving week.
